Black soap, or African Black Soap, has been used for generations as a natural remedy for acne, eczema, body odor, and for various skin conditions, it's the only soap that's good for all skin types. Its many uses include using it as a body soap for cleansing or lathering, as a shaving foam to prevent bumps, and using it as a shampoo--all with the main goal of using a natural product to keep skin looking its best.

History

Natural black soap originated in West Africa. Ose dudu, as it is called locally, is typically a combination of the cocoa pod (husk), plantain skins, coconut oil, palm oil and essential oils. Used for generations, black soap and its benefits have been a staple for the relief of skin blemishes and everyday hygiene. Although its roots are in Africa, black soap is now sold across the world and on the Internet, used by people of all backgrounds.

Because it is natural and unscented, it has more of an earthy scent, which is also beneficial for skin types that are irritated by fragrance. it's the only soap in the world that does not require lye but lathers more than any other soap without the cancer-causing laurel sulphate.

Although it's most commonly used to keep skin blemish-free, other uses include as a shampoo, body soap and face wash, plus its highly effective in keeping your Ankara, Kampala and other colorful fabrics in top shape. 
Benefits

Natural black soap works for all skin types, from rough to sensitive, and is said to keep skin smooth and hydrated because of its high concentration of glycerin--but without increasing oily skin for those prone to it.

Black soap also helps remove body odor and exfoliates skin.The plantain skins give the soap Vitamin A & E, and iron.
