African Black Soap, who's actually tried it?
... and can testify to the benefits it claims to have on the skin?
I'm about to buy it in bulk because I want relief for my super dry, itchy skin. I have psoriasis, and I use all natural organic soaps & almond & coconut oil when I get out of the shower, but sometimes my skin is extra irritated, or my acne flares up more than usual (I use all natural products on my face, too).
Can anyone actually share some experiences w/ this type of soap?
i've researched it and am aware that it's not really "black" and if it is, then it's been dyed. the soap i'm buying is pure, 100% natural, no chemicals, dyes, additives, etc, etc ... it's also organic & not sold in boxes (most sold in boxes is not pure cause it's mass produced). i've done my homework, but thank you.

I use it and swear by it. My son has eczema and it is the only thing that has helped him. It is relatively cheap and WELL worth it. The one I use is brownish and not really shapped like you typically think of a bar of soap being shaped. Here is where I order mine. The other thing I have found it is great for is razor bumps. My husband has always had a hard time with razor bumps, he now washes with this after shaving and has perfectly smooth skin.

Sometime ago I was reading on a website. Can't quite remember which one, but the site was saying that "real" black soap isn't black, it's of a brownish color. Anyway, I use AMBI Black Soap w/ Shea Butter. It works well for me.

I have and it works really good because it's natural and has no added fragrance. I have sensitive skin so I use it on my face along with an expoliator (sp) and I love the results.
