“I have been using black soap for a week now, and it has cleared my eczema up. Since 2004 I have had this dry patch on my wrist that has been militant, defiant and unresponsive to anything. I started using the ABS on my face and my body, not only has it cleared up but it also is fading the mark too. I can't even total up the money spent on cortisones, lotions and trips to my derm. I wish I knew about black soap in 2004
So for those who suffer from eczema you may want to try this soap if you have not already.”
