African Black Soap - Cleansing Facial Scrub

10 Reasons to use African Black soap.

1. Removes bacteria. Studies show that African black soap’s natural antibacterial ingredients work better than medicated cleansers to remove certain harmful bacteria, dirt and other impurities.

2. Deep cleans your skin.  African black soap’s natural ingredients make it a thorough facial cleanser and makeup remover. Its oils and butters help dissolve makeup, while it effectively removes dirt from your face or body.

3. Exfoliates to help improve skin texture and tone. Along with the pumice and charcoal, african black soap is much less smooth than other soaps, due to the ashes used to produce the soap, so it works as a natural exfoliant, removing dead skin cells before they clog pores. The plantain skins and leaves found in African black soap are naturally high in vitamin A, which can brighten your complexion, too.

4. Helps with mild skin rashes. Some people use African black soap to improve rashes caused by eczema and other types of dermatitis, psoriasis and skin allergies. 

5. Treats fungus. May help control skin fungus, including a yeast called Candida albicans. That means you may be able to use it to treat conditions like athlete’s foot and toenail fungus. 

6. Moisturizes without stripping essential oils. African black soap’s multiple ingredients help strike a balance — shea butter adds moisture to your skin while coconut oil prevents excess oiliness. These oils and fats lock in moisture but wash off well with water, so you’re not left with a buildup that can clog pores. Use African black soap to relieve dry skin or itchiness, especially if you have combination skin.

7. May reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines Can reduce the visible effects of aging. Shea butter and coconut oil may help plump up wrinkles and fine lines by slowing the loss of collagen, a fiber-like protein that helps make our tissues strong. Exfoliation can also make fine lines less visible.

8. Protects against oxidative stress. Exposure to air pollution, UV radiation from the sun, skin care products and cosmetics affect your skin every day. You can see some of these changes with the naked eye — like dark spots or wrinkles. Others, such as free radical damage to skin cells, are invisible. Antioxidants in African black soap may help protect your skin from these effects and help discoloration fade.

9. Reduces inflammation. Rich in vitamins A and E, African black soap’s antioxidants help shield your skin against inflammation and free radicals that damage skin cells. You may find this helpful for inflammatory skin conditions like rosacea.

10. Treats acne. African black soap may improve acne and balance the natural oils in your skin. The soap helps exfoliate your skin and open pores, while the sulfur and honey reduce inflammation.
