Great product!! I use this for my face and as a shampoo. It has drastically improved the quality of my skin!!! Less breakouts and pimples (except hormonal ones, but it does reduces the damage left behind). It also shrank my pores, and is even working to actively fade discoloration from acne scars!! LOVE LOVE LOVE african black soap!!
For my hair, I have curly 3b, 3c hair that can get REALLY frizzy sometimes. When I use the black soap on my hair to cleanse, it leaves my hair SO SOFT, super shiny, moisturized and frizz-feee while allowing my hair and scalp to feel clean and refreshed. Seriously, I could get away with skipping conditioner if I wanted to, that's how amazing my hair feels after a wash! I reccomended cutting small pieces and placing them into an applicator bottle (it varies based on how concentrated you want your shampoo) and then adding water to the bottle to fill it up, then add 10-20 drops of peppermint oil or any other essential oil. The smell of the soap really lingers in the hair if used straight from the bar, and it didnt smell pleasant to me. Smells like chocolate at first (which I've never really been a fan of chocolate smells), then as the smell ages in the hair after 2-3 days, it can be obnoxious and off-putting, almost stale or sour. So, its important to thoroughly rinse out all traces. Dilution and use of essential oil leaves no smell or residue behind.
I also use the same method for washing my face. I cut off a rectangle, and then cut it into tiny pieces, put it into an applicator bottle with some water, let it dissolve, and you have a gentle, yet effective, face wash! Using an applicator bottle is better in my opinion because you can control the strength, eliminate transferring bacteria since you now pour the soap from a bottle, and you can stretch the product & make it last longer! You dont need much from the bottle.after you make it either because it lathers so well!!! Face wash lasts over a month easy with daily washing at least twice a day and I get at least 7-10 washes when I make my own shampoo.
Also, the product was packaged neatly, and came in a nifty foil bag with a slider seal and plastic wrap on the inside around the soap. So I am able to simply cut off what I need, re-wrap it, and seal it to preserve freshness! As long as the item is available, will definitely purchase again. Thank you for such a great product that provides quality results!
****UPDATE 3/21/21.....I purchased this item in April 2020, so in a few days it'll officially have been 1 year since I've used this product. It still works beautifully for my skin and hair! I still use the same method listed above, and I am only about halfway through the original product I ordered. So it goes a long way! A lot of my acne scars have faded, not all...but that's because I just recently started using sunscreen to stop them from darkening (just learned about this.) But even before I started using sunscreen, the soap was still actively working to lighten most of my dark spots!! Also, if I happen to get a bump, it doesn't leave a scar behind. And could be a coincidence, but I get less hormonal breakouts too! Another benefit I noticed is that it helps keep my face soft and exfoliated between my weekly facial routine! Pores are still small and less blackheads and whiteheads! Also, I get eczema flareups on my fingers sometimes, and I notice this seems to help reduce redness, swelling, and seems to make my hands heal from a breakout a tad bit quicker when I use my hands to was my face. Sometimes I use a silicone face brush but when I use my hands, the flareups seem less frequent. Will definitely order some more!

Good soap for total body care!
Good soap! It has been good at preventing breakouts and also tones my skin. It has a dry finish to your skin after every use so I make sure to apply almond or coconut oil after to rehydrate my skin. The scent is earthy and natural so it doesn't bother me. Additionally because it has a dry finish I worry for people who have sensitive skin or dry skin as an issue.Although for an organic soap, the rich lather is questionable. Most soaps that are natural don't lather too much and this does excessively...Do not apply soap directly to your skin. There are still some plantain particles that that isn't fully ash so it will scratch you. I keep mine in a container and clean the bubbles and hair off it after every use to keep clean. The only downside I don't like about this product is that after prolongeduse, it gets soft and mushy failing hold its shape. =/I left it on a soap stand and it started to just overtime melt over. But putting it in a container and letting it properly dry reduces this issue but doesn't resolve it. I wish there was a fix around this. It's hard to use when it starts to get mushy and I like to get my money's worth making sure to use every portion I cut and apply.Seller, can you please provide a reason as to why this happens?
