Natural skincare using black soap

For centuries black soap has been used for natural skincare in Africa.
1.As a natural skincare product Black soap helps fade scars caused by acne.
Since acne is not caused by dirt, but the release of excessive oils within the skin, the black soap cannot remove acne. But use of African black soap helps to fade scars caused by the acne, while still being a natural skincare product.

2 Black soap helps to remove skin irritations such rashes. As a natural skincare product black soap will also ease irritation caused by dry skin and eczema.

3.African black soap is also a natural skincare product suitable for all skin types. Black soap can be used for the treatment of problems on all types of skin including the dry and rough, oily and moderate skins, and is therefore a great natural skincare product.

4.Black soap is also beneficial for skin diseases and being 100% chemical free is a great natural skincare product for reducing the discomforts that are associated with skin diseases like psoriasis and eczema .


5.Black soap is great to removing make-up as it not only cleans the skin but acts as a natural skincare treatment. It removes all chemicals that irritatel the skin and help to cleanse and moisturise.

6.As a natural skincare product black soap also delays ageing of the skin through it's high vitamin A and E content. This moisturising effect can delay ageing the of the skin.

7.As a natural skincare product black soap also has excelent benefits for oily skin. Regular use of black soap helps to remove extra oils form the skin. This natural skincare product is thus useful in preventing the formation of pimples and other problems associated with oily skin.

8.Unlike most commerciall shampoos, black soap is 100% natural. Although more common as a natural skincare product African black soap can be converted into a liquide form (See earlier post) that is a fanastic shampoo. After washing you can use your regular conditioner for shiny lustrous beautiful hair. Being a natural skincare product Black soap is also effective in relieving dandruff and itchy scalp.

This post was prompted by a lady in America, that has recently found the benefits of using "Out of Africa" African Black soap as a natural skincare product. "I have bought several brand of ‘African Black Soap', some have worked but most bought over the internet are only coloured chemical soaps (The price normally give these away).

I am really impress with this soap, I have used it on my face and skin {all over like a shower gel}. As a natural skincare product, It cleanses very well. It gives it a real deep cleanse when it comes to the face and body, while still moisturising my skin.

Although I originally ordered the black soap as a natural skincare soap, I'm now also using it on my hair, I used it a number of times on my hair and I am also very pleased. My first impression was that it reminds me of when I use the soap bars. The African black soap cleansed my hair better though but it made it felt very strong. Being a natural skincare soap, it cleanses my scalp by removing any build I may have experienced from other products I have used and it also removed excessive oil build up, BUT it did not felt as if my hair was stripped, it felt very clean, strong and the smell I liked.

I have tired both the natural skincare soap (cake type) as well as the liquids made from the soap; they are both nice either way, but I honestly prefer the black soap in liquid form. So much easier to work with on both the skin and especially the hair. All in all the soap in hard form works just as well as the liquid and obviously as a natural skincare both yield good results.

For my skin type I find I find no need to moisturise after using black soap for natural skincare. Unlike chemical products that often irritate the skin, because there are no chemicals natural skincare with black soap is non irritating to most skin types, athough I do have a friend who experianced a slight burning sensation after using.
From now I will be using black soap for cleansing my hair as well as a natural skincare regime from now on. I am hoping to reduce sulphate shampoo by replacing them with African Black Soap."

This is the reason why globally African Black Soap is finding favour as a natural skincare product. From Lithuania, to Australia; From Canada to Germany Out of Africa has over 60 international enquiries wanting the natural skincare properties of natural black soap.

I have also received many comments about products being advertised as natural skincare products that are clearly not. Thus it's important to do your homework before purchasing anything that claims to be a natural skincare product.
