WHY YOU SHOULD START USING BLACK SOAP NOW

Ever wondered what Queen Cleopatra of Egypt used on her skin, she used natural products such as the Egyptian milk et al which kept her skin flawless and youthful, 

The ancient Chinese women also used natural products to grow and maintain long silky hairs. Natural products are the secrets to youthful look. I have a very sensitive skin, so I react badly to all kinds of soaps my dermatologist advised me to use baby soap which worked but darken my complexion, in my frustration I saw mum holding some black stuffs then mixed it in a bowl with essential oils, honey and turmeric. In my state of confusion I asked her what exactly she was doing, she said I’m mixing black soap and it is good for my skin, just like me my mum has a sensitive skin and light in complexion. Her skin always glowed, soft and tighten. So I decided to give it a try and for over two years now I have never used any soap asides my black soap.   African black soap commonly called “Black Soap” is a great beauty secret, it originated from western Africa and it has been used for centuries by Africans especially Nigerians and Ghanaian. It is an all-natural soap, which is handcrafted by African women. It is 100% black that’s where the soap got its name from, it can be used as shampoo, shower gel, bathing soap, shaving soap, deep-pore cleanser etc. There is an unwritten rule about caring for the skin, “if you can put it on your skin you should be able to eat it, if you can’t eat it don’t put it on your skin.” In most cleansing soaps you find triclosan which can impede the production of thyroid hormone and can contribute to breast cancer. There are also other chemicals in these soaps that causes liver damage and birth defects. Black soap contains No fragrance, color enhancers and preservatives.
