A Note on Calabash Sizing
Because our calabash packaging is grown naturally, no two calabashes are ever the same size or shape. However, each one is filled with a precisely weighed amount of black soap. So while the appearance may vary, the product weight is always consistent.
Pure. Potent. Traditionally African.
A 100% natural cleansing soap handcrafted from African Black Soap and enriched with Shea Butter and Baobab Oil, two of Africa’s most beloved skin nourishing botanicals. Made using time-honoured methods and packaged in natural packaging that’s as kind to the earth as it is to your skin.

how to use

Caution: How to Use Safely: Do not rub or apply the soap directly onto your skin. Traditionally made African Black Soap may contain tiny natural particles from plantain skins and cocoa pod ash, which can cause irritation when applied directly. Always lather in your hands or on a sponge before use.
