Black Soap - Have you used it? (product, brown, supply)

[pitt_transplant]

Do you like it? What have you found it to be good for? Any particular brands that you think work better than others?

I've used the black soap from the beauty supply store. It's just okay. I ordered the real deal off Amazon. I order several pounds, enough to last forever. I use it regularly. I like it but...

I've noticed little spots of a rash from time to time since I started using it. I've had pityriasis rosea before and it looks a lot like that. While I won't blame the soap, it is interesting that it returned with the soap or that I'm having a new rash. It's almost always on my chest neck, or back. Very small and hardly noticeable on my neck.

Other than that, I have no complaints and I'm very satisfied with the soap.

No, I have always been to afraid to try it. The one I saw looked very abrasive. :S

Yes, I actually made a post not too long ago about black soap and shea butter. I had ordered a sample from hosiaonline (Buy Shea Butter | African Black Soap | Natural Skin & Hair Care Products) and wanted some advice. Well I got my samples and I really liked it! I got the one that looked light brown and soft. It work for me, so i order it often. it removes my makeup when I'm too lazy to use olive oil, i feel really clean after i use it too, it feels like it cleans really well, not every soap can make you feel like that. As far as branding, I would recommend the place I buy it from simply because I like the service.
