[@itzmanu5922]

After using the black soap I personally moisturize my face with natural Shea butter to avoid irritation

[@kaylajones4495]

I did also and have dry irritation on my forehead and sides of my nose

[@drippydreya4817]

I swear some people have bad experiences because they use chemical things and skincare after African black soap it’s meant to be used with natural things like SHEA BUTTER

[@lakithagoss897]

@@drippydreya4817 You are correct. I just use the soap and follow up witch hazel. I moisturize my face with a few drops of grapeseed oil.

[@kadinsisavat]

@@lakithagoss897 does the oil do the trick? Did you apply moisturizer after?

[@tiffanydlo.x]

I just cleanse use the soap then moisturise. For me there isn't irritation though

[@suryleguisamon6613]

The raw African black soap dries out my skin but if I leave it dry it’ll feel tightness and irritation and to avoid that I just moisturize my skin after using the soap & consistently change my pillow case. I see drastic changes such as reducing blemishes, dries out the pimples fast and it makes the blackhead and whitehead easy to remove without pricking at it. My skin type is oily and this help. Thanks.

[@mariaamponsah9384]

What do you use to moisturize your skin ?

[@Bslimeedits]

The African black soap I currently has honey and Aloe Vera infused and it leaves my skin mostly moisturized. It’s by RA Cosmetics

[@jeanne9571]

Where did you buy it from?

[@Bslimeedits]

@@jeanne9571 Amazon. Look up the natural African black soap paste. If that doesn’t work use African white soap from Etsy

[@LilyOgini]

I never knew that African black soap 🧼 does have side effects. I think 🤔 is best to make home made. Thank you 🙏.

[@alejandrotobienne584]

Over use can actually dry out your skin. It happens to a lot of soaps.

[@alejandrotobienne584]

Nah so long as it’s real marble black soap. I recommend a soft wash rag for body an face. Fleece rags are soft on skin. Home made will still net you same results with drying if you use it like a body soap everyday.

[@necabibi3558]

All soap will dry out skin if overused

[@nenyennoli8118]

Informative. Thank you. I'd noticed the first adverse effect. And yes, my journey with natural products has shown that they do have side effects, too. You still have to look out for what suits your skin.

[@MissOpeyemiTj]

Waooo black soap do cause skin irritation and sensitive 🤔 I think it best to do it yourself in other to include some skin care products like Shea butter and honey like you said

[@n0hara]

I got mine from an African grocery store- it DEFINITELY looks homemade, the packaging said made in Ghana

[@Yokaisenn]

When I had 1st started using it I didn't wet my face 1st I just lathered and apply soap my skin was irritated and dry. Then I tried wetting my face 1st and now it works great

[@jana_lee]

did you applied soap on dry skin? who does that?

[@hailey1997]

@@jana_lee I think she meant she just lathered it in her hands first and used the lather to wash her face

[@amym8551]

@@jana_leewith alot of face soaps you’re supposed to dry lather on your skin first then go in with water after, not sure about African soaps though

[@meechynailedit]

I always dilute mine with water because my skin is combination dry and oily in some areas so my skin go irritated when I first started using it. I also use the same dilution for my hair and body and moisturize while my skin is still damp. Definitely a game changer.

Tnk u very much for dis enlightenment, I bought an Africa black soap made for face to treat sunburn but instead of treating d sunburn, it's getting worst, does dat mean I shld be rubbing Shea butter on my face after I use it to wash my face? The ingredients used are coco pod ash, vegetable oil & p.k.o.

My aunt bought me some African black soap because my face was having a bad reaction from my job when I used it it burned not just my face but my body to is that normal for the soap there was fibers in the soap to like small chips of wood is that normal

[@dopenigerian]

Absolutely not. It seems the brand of black soap was too harsh for you and NO your soap isn’t supposed to contain chips of wood. I’m going to have a video on mild black soaps for sensitive skin out this weekend so be on the lookout for that but in the meantime, you should stop using the one you have and opt for a gentle cleanser like cerave Castile soap.

Interesting video thanks for sharing. I'm currently using a raw african black soap made with: Shea butter, Coconut oil, Cocoa pod ash, and water. Don't know if this type is suitable for my skin type. I'd say after use with hours during the day my face gets a little oily. Safe to use? Thanks.

[@ChristabelNduejuafor]

Yes am having irritation, what can I use to clear it

[@dopenigerian]

Hello, perhaps the kind of moisturizer you use afterwards may contribute if it isn’t nourishing. Also you can try using it sparingly.

[@msdoti]

Once you stop using it, will it still affect your skin sensitivity

[@goofparty420]

it won’t, I had severe breakouts a few years ago and after it cleared i went back to using a normal face wash afterward and my skin stayed pretty clear :)

[@dopenigerian]

Absolutely it won’t. Black soap is a natural product and it doesn’t leave your skin bad after you stop using it unlike some creams. I think when you use a product containing steroids that’s when it sabotages your skin when you stop using it.

[@dianamcallister4738]

Does black soap mold? Why does it have white particles on it?

[@dopenigerian]

Pure African black soap doesn’t mold unless it has been mixed with other things that could go bad without preservatives

[@isaiah7640]

Real black soap is not meant to cause irritation so it might be fake

[@theOGofREDS]

Yeah I seen some at dollar tree and HEB that have chemicals like sodium tallowate and other chemicals found in cheap soap like zest or camay

[@leahislove]

i’ve been using this soap for a month or so, and it just leaves these bumps on my forehead. i have never really had this issue before i started using it. i rinse it off immediately after washing my skin, so why is this happening? should i keep using it or take a break? (i only use it 2-3 times a week and i think my skin is combination, but the soap doesn’t really dry my face)

[@Alise-xf9zj]

tell me update plsss

[@leahislove]

@@Alise-xf9zj i kinda stopped using it, or reduced it to like 2-3 times a month. sometimes i just use it to make my face feel extra clean yk. but bumps are gone. so i guess it might depend on what your skin can tolerate.

[@claraowsu2902]

@@leahislove it could be your skin purging and bring all the bacteria underneath your skin to the surface. It usually a short term thing for 3 to 4 weeks. And what you use with your African black soap could also be the result of it.

This is also happening to me. Can you tell me how to fix it?

[@treasurehotdish1569]

But what makes African black soap to cause skin rashes,darkening or pimples ?

[@dopenigerian]

Hi, it is mostly about the ingredients used to mix it and how your skin reacts to it. African black soap on its own is amazing but manufacturers tend to mix certain ingredients to boost its efficacy and that is why I made a video on the best black soaps for all skin types. You can check it out here kzbin.info/www/bejne/jomQiIaMi9Gmg6c
