African natural
black soap is one of the most healthful yet unheard of soaps you will
find. This black soap contains more benefits for healthy skin than
you can imagine. Read some of the information below and you will know
why.
All natural African
black soap is made from dried
plantain skins, palm leaves, cocoa
pod powder, and kernel oil for an all-natural cleansing process. Plantains
skins are largely what make this black soap so effective. Plantain is a
fruit that grows in Africa & South America that looks similar to a
banana, except it is much larger and tastes altogether different. You can
find plantains at many ethnic or international grocery stores. It is a
natural source of
vitamins A & E and iron. When black soap is made, the skin of the
plantain is dried under the sun and then roasted in a clay oven. The heat
must be constant in order to achieve the perfect brownish black color,
texture & smell. Afterwards, cocoa pod powder is added. Cocoa pod is
the shell of the cocoa fruit and also has natural healing properties.
The next part of the
black soap making process is very precise. The roasted plantain skin is
mixed with palm and palm kernel oil to form the soap. The roasted
plantains determine the color of the soap. The longer the plantains are
roasted, the darker the black soap will become.
