If you take a look at the ingredients list of a bar of soap your main concern should not be the oils used, it should be what base/lye was used. What makes Black Soap fake or real is based on what type of base/lye was used. Real African Black Soap made in Africa is not made with any type of synthetic (a.k.a man-made) base/lye, it's made with a completely organic base either from plant ash and/or potash. In the next video, I'll prove it to you by showing you how to make your own REAL Black Soap from scratch.
Here's an example of an ingredient list of a popular fake black soap. The ingredients are listed, and I added a short comment next to each so, you know what to look out for:
African Black Soap Base - The base used is not even given b/c it's most like fake
African Shea Butter* - Don't be distracted by the natural oils used, all soaps recipes need some form of oil. The base used is what we care about
Oats
Aloe
Plantain Extract
Vitamin E
Essential Oil Blend
Vegetable Glycerin
Palm Ash - A very small amount of Plam Ash so as a base it's insignificant
Rosemary Extract
Iron Oxides - Synthetic pigment to make it look like real black soap. this is what makes the soap super black so make consumers think, "this must be black soap"

MissLeaStarBeauty I was just gonna say I use the Shea Moisture kind. It doesn't have any harsh ingredients listed in it. At least it doesn't say it does. I usually use the real raw african black soap. But I took a chance on the Shea Moisture because the ingredients listed were natural. Smh, they ain't no better than any of the other ones.😡 I do like their hair products though.

To everyone that is getting a reality check from this , don't panic! Lol. I say that cause some might have been using the dark smooth soap and been seeing differences in your skin or hair. if that's the case keep doing it, no point in switching and now what was improving your hair or skin is causing issues. This is a very informative video but she's not telling you to throw anything away. Just building your knowledge bank. Read the ingredients on your black soap. Always go by the ingredient list is something else I gain from this video. Cause based on GB findings black soap shouldn't have ingredients you can't pronounce. If it does then it's probably fake. Also If it matters to you, buying the fake will not support families back in Africa who make the real black soap and depends on the sales. It matters to me so the black soap I get is always the ones made back in Africa. GB (green beauty) if I'm wrong let us know hun. 🤗 💗💗💟💟🤗😍👏

I've been using real African black soap for 5 years and I won't go back. I knew from the get go the difference between the fake shit and the real stuff because I've learned that usually ugly products are the best, haha. My hair and skin love it. I don't feel like I'm squeaky clean with a film on me after washing with it like I do with all commercial soaps. It doesn't really have a nice smell, but I don't care. Ever since using it, I no longer have dry patches on my skin and eczema breakouts. Thanks for this wonderful video.

Anyone who hasn't switched to black soap yet is missing out. It's the only soap I've used for years and I'd never go back. It's too sticky as a shampoo for my super-fine textured (Caucasian) hair, but for skin you can't beat it. Also, it cleared up every single skin issue my 90-year old grandma kept having, when none of the prescribed creams etc. were doing anything for her. Acne, eczema, wounds that won't heal, psoriasis, etc. Oh- and I love the natural, earthy smell. With a real sea sponge, there's nothing better.

Great explanation on soap molecules. Nice graphics and it doesn't just apply to African black soap. ALL real soap cleans this way. ALL soaps made without detergents and hardeners will dissolve naturally in water. It does NOT just apply to African black soap as what this video indirectly implies. Also, Lye is NOT a man made hardener. It is made from wood ashes which is used to mix with oils to make soap. ALL soap is made with lye or potash including the soap you buy at the store. Lye mixed with oil creates a natural byproduct called glycerin which is a natural moisturizer to your skin. Big soap companies take out this glycerin and replace it with detergents and chemical hardeners that utterly ruin your skin. They then take this glycerin and put it in the women beauty products and jack up the prices and at the same time cheapen the soap. That is why women pay so much for their beauty products. So, if you find a good soap maker like me, keep him. It doesn't just apply to African black soap. It took me a while to learn the ins and outs and to find a good combination of oils but in the 7 years I have been making and selling it I haven't had to buy shampoo or shaving cream and I very very rarely use deodorant. When people buy my soap I come right out and tell them "Five minutes after getting out of the shower, your going to rub your forehead and say Damn!". Anyway, lye based soap is not a bad thing. It is what they take out of the soap when it concerns manufacturing and it is the combination of oils that is used that determines good soap. Not to mention an overuse of badly measured lye so don't just resolve yourself to African black soap. I really admire their dedication though. They are using what is available to them and making something very useful.

I'm Nigerian and I love black soaps and I think the only industrial black soap is called Dudu Osun, any other industrial black soap except Dudu Osun or the traditionally made black soap is fake.

So is Dudu Osun a fake Black soap? It looks like the fake ones you have shown, but is made from natural ingredients and made in Nigeria. Can someone enlighten me? Thank you. :)

I was just thinking the same thing! I think Dudu Osun is authentic it shouldn't matter how the soap looks, but rather the ingredients.

@NaijaChristine 7 жыл бұрын

A T Right? :) But I think I will just get another Black soap. Tbh, I haven't noticed any difference with my skin using the Dudu Osun soap. It's rather harsh and stripping on my skin anyways. Besides, I have been watching this lovely lady for awhile, and she is very intelligent. I will take her advice. She knows what she is talking about. lol

This is my opinion but I hope I'll be able to help. Dudu Osun is authentic African Black soap but it is just molded into a presentable shape obviously for commercial purposes compared to the ones bought from the villages (like the ones in the video). If you check Dudu Osun, it breaks as easily and dissolves quickly like the one in the video. Another thing I will like to add is most black soaps are stripping because they do a really job at cleaning your body and your hair. In saying that, I noticed recent batches of Dudu Osun are not as stripping as the batches I used when growing up (it cleans well but I'm not paper dry after I shower). I personally dissolve and add a some oil into my liquid batch if I find them too stripping. That works for me. Also, different things work for different people but using Original African black soap completely changed my life and cleaned out my recurring acne. I hope I was able to help someone. Cheers!

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 thanks for your ending comments I get a lot of backlash sometimes for my soaps not being pretty smooth or cheap enough, but I tell people all the time you get what you pay for ... Do you want actual soap or a bunch of chemicals and surfactants that smell good and make bubbles? Big business has our minds so wired that people actually believe that just because it bubbles it's cleansing when it's the actual make up of the properties in the product. This just motivates me to keep on pushing. But I digress, once again PHENOMENAL video! Thank you!
