Review: Soft and Refreshing - I love the feel of it. It’s gentle and works well on my skin.
Review: African black soap - I really like this African black soap. It doesn’t irritate my skin in anyway, lathers pretty well too. A bit pricy but worth it in my opinion. If you’re using it with an African wash net, it won’t lather up as well but still works well.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How is this for a face wash**
A: I use it on a daily basis as my face wash....its great for the skin, especially for people with acne issues. It removes my mascara pretty easily too. Just be aware that black soap is a bit drying, so make sure to moisturize afterwards....but then again, I have dry skin issues with my face so maybe it varies from person to person.

**Q: How is it orangutan safe if it's made of palm kernel?**
A: "Our natural West African palm oil is grown and harvested by small-scale farmers in the Maritime region of Togo, from the town of Tsevie to Kpalime. The oil is extracted by our Fair Trade cooperative in Sokodé using traditional methods. When palm oil is grown as an industrial plantation crop, such as in Indonesia and Malaysia on newly cleared rainforests or peat-swamp forests rather than on already degraded land or disused agricultural land, it can contribute
to the endangerment of animals such as the Orangutans. However, this is not the case with the small farms that we receive our palm oil from in Africa. Oil palms are native to West Africa and have been grown as part of multi-cropped sustainable small farms for centuries. It's also important to point out that Orangutans do not exist in Africa." -Alaffia's official website, FAQ section

**Q: has anyone used this as a body wash? specifically for acne**
A: Not as a body wash for acne. But I have used it for a body wash and it works great. Also help clear the acne on my face for sure

**Q: I have oily and acne prone skin. Will it work for my skin?**
A: Yes, Black soap does work well for acne and oily skin. It can be a little drying, and Alaffia also has some light moisturizers and oils that are designed especially for acne prone skin.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Soft and Refreshing
*by K***R on 26 November 2025*

I love the feel of it. It’s gentle and works well on my skin.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ African black soap
*by J***Y on 5 May 2025*

I really like this African black soap. It doesn’t irritate my skin in anyway, lathers pretty well too. A bit pricy but worth it in my opinion. If you’re using it with an African wash net, it won’t lather up as well but still works well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finally a product with natural simple ingredients and not just a shower gel
*by M***N on 11 March 2021*

I love using this as a shower gel (simple ingredients, smells nice, not dehydrating to my skin) and also the fact that they are supporting communities in West Africa as well as being a business. I recently started having dandruff out of the blue and I was going to buy a anti dandruff shampoo that contained tea tree oil but then I remembered this has tea tree oil in it (I realised then that you can use it in your hair and it contains neem which is meant to be very good for reducing dandruff). After one wash my dandruff has improved by about 60-70% (as a guess) and I am rarely itching my head. Easy solution, instead of researching and buying more products.
