Listing description
Black soap, also known as African black soap (anago soap,
alata simena, and dudu-osun), has long been used to heal problem skin. It's
good for thinning fine lines, evening out dark spots, eczema, razor bumps and
eliminating blemishes.
Detailed description
It is also used to
lightly exfoliate and give you healthier looking skin. The soap can be used on
your body or hair and works for oily skin, dry skin, skin rashes, scalp
irritations, body odors and is good for sensitive skin. There are many other
claims to the benefits of black soap, which may be proven/disproven by the
user.
Black soap is made from the ash
of locally harvested plants and barks such as plantain, cocoa pods, palm tree
leaves, and shea tree bark. First the leaves and bark are sun-dried and then
roasted in a kettle or pot at an even, constant temperature, which is important
to ensure color, texture and smell. Then water and various oils – palm oil,
coconut oil, palm kernel oil (including shea butter and cocoa pod powder) – are
added to the mixture and stirred for at least a day. After that, the
"soap" is left to set for two weeks to cure.
Oftentimes the soap is
made by women and is fair-traded, though not always. Black soap is
traditionally made in west Africa, typically Ghana, from secret recipes.
Different tribes and communities have adopted their own specific (secret) blend
of oils and cooking techniques, which can be seen in the different color
variations among black soap. The ash itself was often used to heal cuts.
Varieties of black soap actually made in Africa tend to be pure, while soaps
made in Europe or the United States sometimes have added artificial ingredients.
The plantain skins
give the soap Vitamin A & E, and iron. Because the soap has the highest
shea butter content of any soap, it purportedly also offers UV protection. Some
people with caffeine sensitivities may need to test out soap that contains cocoa
pods as there is some evidence that the caffeine can be transmitted through
contact with the skin.
