Our Earth's Secrets Natural Raw African Black Soap (2 lbs)

GUYS. So I’ve been using this brand of soap since like April ish of 2019 and I haven’t looked back. I originally bought it for my eczema (back of my knees) and light acne (light acne meaning a few bumps here and there every blue moon no major acne condition) and found that it worked well for both conditions. I will give a warning though: when you first use this soap (this may or may not apply to everyone) it will hurt and burn like hell. For my acne, it was like addressing the elephant in the room. It opened my acne spots up, it made my bumps red and a lil bloody but that was okay. Like life, things get really bad before things get really good. It addressed my acne right away and made it raw and vulnerable. I was like wtf lmao. So I let my face rest for a few days and only very very light and gentle water rinsing since my skin still felt very raw. After that when my acne started to scab up and die I was just able to wipe it away after 2-3 days and I was glowing. I loved it. But yeah your skin might react strongly then it gets used to it with consistent use. I used it on my body and hair as well. Now I will say that I feel like it has a really strong acidic ph (which could explain the burning reaction) so I decided to one day combine the soap with black seed oil (amazing herbs brand) and make a lil multipurpose wash. I did 3 parts liquified soap to 1 part black seed oil and that was EVEN BETTER. Those two products compliment each other very well and it basically healed my severe eczema. I washed my body with it and moisturized with yellow Shea butter. Dassit. And another thing I’ll say, this combo really is multipurpose. I use it to wash my hair (black soap is extremely clarifying, add BSO for a good clarifying eczema wash, or add another type of oil (olive, castor, coconut, etc.) for a clarifying, moisturizing, and curl defining hair wash) I wash my body piercings with it (the combo helps to cleanse and heal the piercings wayyy faster DONT SLEEP ON THIS), and I use it as an everyday body wash. This soap makes me feel so clean and my skin so healthy and leaves no scent (even though I do like the earthy smell of the soap) and it just has so many healing properties, and LADIES it doesn’t throw off my vaginal ph like most commercial scented soaps do. I truly love this stuff so much. One more thing, when I get the occasional wound/cut/scrape I would first put a little black seed oil on there to start the healing process and kill the germs (BSO has antibacterial/fungal properties) then when I shower i use the combo. Put Shea butter on it and just keep doing that until it’s fully healed. No nasty scars, no scar tissue (scab) formation, heals beautifully. This soap is truly truly truly amazing and I will NEVER stop using this!!!!

Haven't used it yet hence the 4 stars because i have others left to use. I'm sure it's a great soap. It looks great and smells great. The soap on the wood soap dish rack is a previous soap with Tea Tree Oil. Love that one too! I gave one to my sister as she is traveling back to Italy. She loves it too!

I received two large bars and was able to cut each one into six smaller pieces. One set lasted me about three months. It lathers well and leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed. I recommend using it once a day to avoid dryness. Great value for how long it lasts.

I saw a video of this soap on tik tok so I came to check it out. You get a huge block of it so it’s definitely worth the price. I’ve tried a lot of different face soaps and I would say this definitely cleans my skin really well. From working out, moisturizers and sun screens, and makeup, the soap really takes every layer of product off and makes my skin feel squeaky clean (literally.) it says in the directions to not rub the soap on your face and I will confirm to not do that. In the video I saw, the person did scrub her face with the soap directly so I tried that and felt abrasive pieces that definitely hurt my skin. So I did not do that again. There are some pieces of what looks like rocks in it so just be careful but besides that, it’s an amazing soap. I have normal skin type and have noticed it really helps tone down redness and irritation. I would recommend you buy it!

This is my favorite soap and I am so grateful it has stayed the same since I’ve been ordering it. I’ve been purchasing it for a few years now. My hair and skin stay soft using it and it has all natural ingredients. The cleaner can be a little drying but if you moisturize right after you’ll be fine. The bars lasts about two months and that’s with 5 people using it.
