This Do-It-All Miracle Product Is What’s Missing From Your Shower
This Do-It-All Miracle Product Is What’s Missing From Your Shower
WHAT: Alaffia Authentic African Black Soap All-In-One
WHY: If you’re new to the near-magic of African Black soap, welcome. And if you’re someone who deals with sensitive skin, breakouts, ultra-dry skin, stretch marks, or hyperpigmentation (aka nearly all living women), well, your prayers may have been answered.
Long used for its healing and antibacterial properties, African Black soap is safe for your body, your hair, and your face. Somehow it balances oily hair and skin, AND is deeply moisturizing for flake-dry folks—it’s even known to help clear up eczema-related rashes and psoriasis.
So what the hell is in this elixir?
Very little, in fact. For Alaffia, it’s a “centuries old recipe made of Shea butter and palm oil,” though the brand is quick to point out that the small-scale farming they employ in West Africa is entirely safe for Orangutans, an issue that can arise with Palm Oil harvesting. This product and brand is also certified Fair Trade, Made Safe, and Non GMO.
An all-in-one product that outperforms all of its individual counterparts? Yes, please. Oh and we also have been using it for shaving, and it’s been a game changer. And $15 bucks for 32 oz. feels almost like a typo...
