10/10!
Omg!! I know a few people said “this isn’t the REAL African black soap” but I thought I know this brand and as a newbie to this, I felt safe ordering it and I’m sooooo sooo glad I did - ever since I’ve been on my contraceptive pill (about 4 years now) my skin went mental and i now suffer from adult hormonal acne - I’ve tried millions of regimes, diets and products and spend hundreds but Sadly have never gotten amazing results - I decided to go back to my roots and had see many girls of my ethnicity raving about this soap and how it “cured” acne and so I decided to test this in my cleansing routine and within a week of using this my skin for the first time in years looks amazing and smooth - the dark spots and bumps are fading and my skin overall looks healthy and I’ve gotten many compliments on how it looks glowy now too!Some tips / facts for anyone who wants to buy this:1. It smells amazing2. Cut it up into dices as it’s a fat bar and you don’t need to use it all and it will last forever3. As it’s quite strong - I use it once every night followed by a small amount of tea tree face wash4. This bar will last a long timeOverall this is 10/10 and I hope it carry’s on working for me! Fingers crossed

I don't do reviews
I was pretty sceptical of this product. Gave it a shot after seeing the reviews and in desperation to help my skin. My face, chest and back having scars from spots and my constant picking. Within 3 days there's was a noticeable difference. Spots had dried out, scars had lightened. It has even 2 weeks now and nearly all my spots are gone, scars lighten. Spots appearing SIGNIFICANTLY reduced, smaller and less angry when they do occur. The soap does dry out the skin however, it is not harsh.It's now apart of my routine and will continue to buy and recommend. Wish I took before and after pics

Gave my skin a beautiful glow
The first thing you need to know is that this is not genuine black soap. Black soap is not literally black. But that is irrelevant, what matters is if the product works. And this definitely works. It is very forgiving to the skin. Other black soaps can be quite harsh to the skin but I bathe in this soap everyday and it cleans your skin thoroughly, especially with an exfoliating sponge. You should moisture afterwards because it can dry out your skin. I only bought this because I wanted to get rid of facial blemishes. After several weeks someone complimented my skin tone. I looked in the mirror and was surprised, my skin looked amazing and had a beautiful brown glow. I looked like an African model haha. And it smoothed out my facial pores. This stuff really works.The downsides are that you need to continually use this for it to be effective. All of the benefits to your skin reverse quickly if you stop using this soap, including the improvements to your skin tone and any scarring. Because it's mild it may take several weeks before you notice the effects. And lastly the price is quite expensive. at the time of writing it costs £6.50 for one bar of shea moisture soap. Compare this to regular soaps or even other black soaps like dudu osun you can buy a pack of 6 for a similar price.

Love this
I didn't want to write a review until i had tested this out for a while. So i have been using this twice a day for 2 weeks now and it is the best thing ever.I don't like liquorice but to be honest it smells beautiful but if you dont like it, don't worry because the smell doesn't linger after you was your face.Now i have extremely allergy prone skin and have been having some really bad reactions to almost everything. This has been a massive help.Honestly, get rid of all your experience face washes and use this. It is much more natural and it doesn't irritate your skin one bit.The bar is huge and after 2 weeks of continuous use it doesn't even look like it has shrunk at all so will definitely last a while.The delivery was basically the next day which was really impressive for free delivery.The only two products i know use on my face (except for makeup now and then) is plain yoghurt with tumeric as a face mask. And this twice a day everyday.

It's nice but not an African black soap
This soap is okay but not fantastic for a black soap. I believe it's not an African black soap but just a normal soap. It's not 100 percent natural but it's just okay like every other soap. It doesn't leave your skin dry

Great for sensitive skin
I was apprehensive to try a new soap as I have very sensitive skin - a lot of body washes for baby skin even make me itchy! I gave this a try and have had no irritation at all, it smells lovely too which is always a concern with more natural products. My skin is clearer than it usually is too. The bar is very large so will last me a long time so great value for money.

Perfect, gentle cleanser - I've even given my friends samples!
This stuff is brilliant, removes 100% of face make up and, if used carefully over closed eyes, takes off 95% of mascara (but not the waterproof kind) so I use coconut oil as make up remover first. I also use this as my only body shower product (great for shaving legs too) and my skin is glowing and not irritated (I have ezcema) at all. My blemishes (sunspots&freckles) are fading and my face is so soft after 3 months of morning and nightly use.This stuff is such a well kept beauty secret!Note: I recommend cutting the main block into a few inchxinch smaller bars (storing the rest in a cool dry place inside a sandwich bag - keeping the one I'm using in a suspended soap tray (to dry after use). I have the rest of the blocks individually plastic wrapped each, as the soap tends to crack and disintegrate if exposed to too much water and of course; to use, lather it in your hands first, so as not to scratch your face with any present natural debris (cocoa nibs).Enjoy x

Great soap
I have sensitive skin and eczema flare ups so I’m careful about the products I use on my face and body. However, I really like this soap and have been using it consistently for almost one year without any adverse side effects. I Occasionally use this soap on my face, more often on my body.I’ve seen a few reviews stating this soap has helped with acne and scarring. I’ve never suffered from acne but I do get scars from my eczema (I’m of African descent and my scars are very dark brown). Truthfully, I’m not sure if this soap alone has helped to clear up my scars, but again, it hasn’t made anything worse. I also use Shea butter to help with the dark marks left from rashes. My scars aren’t completely gone but have improved and this may in part be because of the soap.When I first used the soap I instantly noticed the scent. It wasn’t a bad smell but quite distinctive. I actually don’t mind this as I feel the more organic a product is, the more unlikely it will smell of roses and perfume. After a few uses I no longer notice the scent so much.I am big fan of this black soap, having tried another brand which felt very rough with not a very nice scent. I recently bought these soaps to hand out as stocking fillers for Christmas and my sisters seem to like them.My only negative would be the soap, being black in colour, can leave the shower looking dirty once you’ve finished, but this is minor as I clean my shower often.The soaps took a little long for delivery but did arrive within the estimated delivery dates so I can’t complain. I would recommend trying this product.

El único producto que utilizo en la ducha desde hace 5 años
Sale care pero utilizo una pastilla al año. Es un todo en uno para la ducha, cuerpo y pelo sin problemas. Aunque el cabello solo lo limpio con jabón una vez a la semana o así.Huele cremoso, a todo el mundo que coge la pastilla y la huele le enamora.

Super sauber!!
Ich habe mir diese Seife nach langer Recherche von Erfahrungen bestellt, um meine eigenen Erfahrungen zu machen. Hier in Deutschland scheint das Produkt noch nicht ganz so weit verbreitet zu sein, denn ich habe größtenteils Amerikanische Bloggerposts etc. gefunden.Ich benutze diese Seife nun seit knapp zwei Wochen und arbeite sie mit einer elektronischen Gesichtsbürste ein und Pflege die Haut danach mit Aloe Vera Gel. Mein Hautbild hat sich stark verändert : feiner, reiner und nicht mehr so fettig.Die Haut fühlt sich sauber und gepflegt nach dem Waschen an.Der Duft erinnert irgendwie an Banane, aber keinesfalls unangenehm.Es scheint, als würde die Seife lange halten, da ich nach 2 Wochen täglicher Anwendung morgens und abends lediglich eine kleine Ecke des Stücks gebraucht habe.Klare KAUFEMPFEHLUNG !

Great buy!!!
SheaMoisture Bar Soap for Troubled Skin African Black Soap -- I use this soap to clean my head and hair before I shampoo my hair. The soap is large, so I cut off a piece of soap, and hold a smaller piece inside the palm of my hand. Thereafter, I wet the soap with warm water before I wash my head and hair for more lather. Yes, you will have lots of lather.I enjoy the sweet smell, cleanness, and softness of the Shea Butter. Also, I like the soap's benefits, which are provides faster hair growth, a spiritual head cleaner, deep scalp hydration, calms dry-skin irritation with anti-inflammatory properties, and seals moisture into coarse or curly hair strands to prevent breakage.
