    great for body spots

    I was actually looking for the face bar when I came across this soap and decided to purchase this one also. I get a few problem body spots especially after fake tanning and thought this was worth a try to clear them up.

    The bar is quite large (bigger then usual bars of soap) so lasts ages. The soap lathers really well and is quite soap and luxe feeling when in use. The smell isn't really strong and is quite pleasant.

    I loved how quickly this soap worked, within the week my spots had started to clear up and my skin was noticeably clearer and smoother. Will continue to use!

    Too drying for my skin

    This is a large cake of soap, Sheamoisture products are generously sized and this is about twice the size of a normal bar of soap. The smell is quite unique and I found it pleasant. It's a dark colour and the lather it creates is grey but it does'nt leave any stain on your skin. There are flecks of what I presume to be charcoal in the soap, and while you can feel them they don't scratch your skin and seem to dissolve as the soap is used.

    Charcoal is very cleansing. The addition of shea butter alongside the charcoal was'nt enough moisturise for my skin however, it felt dry and tight after using it. I gave it to my husband to use and the closest to a review I could get from him was "it's o.k, a strange colour"

    The only part of my body I use it on now is my armpits, it cleans them really well, gets rid of any lingering odours and I believe the charcoal in the soap keeps them smelling better so I don't need a strong deodorent. It's going to take a while to use up but I would like to try the Shea Butter soap next.

    Different but divine.

    First reaction was how big it was, but after the first use I was glad it was big because I love it! It smells absolutely delicious and does a great job at cleaning. I had never tried a black soap before and I was pleasantly surprised. If you’re looking for something different, definitely one to give a go. You do have to refrain from eating it though, because it smells so good!

    Treat your skin to this black beauty ♥

    Wow, this is the largest cake of soap I've ever owned! Most bars are around the 100g mark but this is a whopping 230g, and will no doubt last a long time, something I'm delighted about 'cos it's just so good...

    It has a delicate scent which is exactly like those little white milk bottle lollies - a sweet vanillary fragrance that adds to an entirely delicious cleansing experience. Packed with all sorts of skin-loving ingredients, this soap is made for troubled or irritated skin, neither of which I have - but I do experience major dryness, especially in the cold months, and this cleansing bar seems to be the perfect antidote...

    The formula contains shea butter, oats and aloe, together with the traditional African Black Soap base of palm ash, tamarind extract, tar and plantain peel. Sounds pretty weird, and you may wonder how a black soap could get you clean, but cleanse it sure does. As soon as you rub it a couple of times on your flannel, this beauty bar lathers like there's no tomorrow - the bubbles are rich, creamy and refreshing, and there's enough for a full head-to-toe wash. Whenever I use this bar in the shower, I don't need to apply a body lotion afterwards as my skin already feels supple and soothed...

    I'm a total fan of this company - their products contain NO parabens, phthalates, paraffin, mineral oil, DEA, petroleum, formaldehyde, propylene or sulfates, nor do they test on animals ♥

    Any Tips?: 
    This soap is gentle enough for the face, and also comes in a smaller size to keep on your vanity...
    Ideal For...: 
    Anyone with dry skin and I reckon fellas, in particular, would love it - the blurb says it's also suitable for sufferers of eczema or psoriasis...

    Great starter vitamin C

    This comes in a well presented dropper bottle.
    I was surprised to find it a creamy white colour, all other vitamin C serums I have tried have been thin and yellow.
