For centuries, African Black Soap, made with Cocoa Pod Ash and Cocoa Butter, has been used in Africa to care for the skin. Historical references to Shea Butter, a staple of African pharmacology, date back to the reported Shea Butter caravans of CleopatraÕs Egypt.

Odor is GoneI had issues with a horrible smell left in my clothes before I began using this deodorant. Now, I have none of those worries. Thank you!!!!

Doesn't work for people who sweat a lotDoesn't work, I sweat a lot and although this smells great at first, it soon makes me smell even worse than I do without deodorant. I hoped that this was due to my body being used to non-natural deodorants but I used it everyday multiple times a day for about 8 weeks and it hasn't gotten any better. Wish it worked because of how nice my skin feels.

Oh yea! It works!The fragrance is perfect. Not too strong not too weak. Keep you armpit hair shaved. You must wash everyday which everyone should do anyway. And your fine.
This is not an antiperspirant. You sweat but it doesn’t stink. It smells like sweat but not onions. It mixes with your body very well to me and prefer that much more than cancer or some itchy rash. The fragrance is divine and even strong. But it never gave me any rash like many others. If I know I’m going to be sweating a lot on certain days, I just put it in my purse and carry it with me.

Product now looks, feels & performs differentI've used this for many years. Evidently the formula has been changed. It's no longer white but sort of purplish grey color. It's very greasy and does not dry well at all. I use a very small amount and had to rub it in with my fingers for 2 or more minutes to get it to dry then had very oily & greasy fingers. It never dried as fully as the old formula. Very disappointed in tr change. The old white formula dried very quickly.

Black Soap & all natural deodorantI like the soap. Really gives off a good lather & I like the smell. The bar soap lasts and does not evaporate quickly. The doedorant is all natural. No irritation under my arms. It last 24 hours. After that I need to wash up. I like the fragrance of both products. I am satisfied with my purchase & look forward to experiencing other products.

InterestingSmells almost spicy, interestingly strong, like african black soap, which is ... maybe, acquired? samples would help, but then I probably wouldn't have bought it if I could smell it because it's so very strong, especially when you sweat: That's actually a great feature for deodorant. AND the only real "problem" (that I can get over, because it's aluminum free and non-abrasive in texture) is that it's very melty -again, that's fine, in the product, but when you close the lid, it gets everywhere - maybe, change he packaging?
I think the fragrances are fragrance oils (a secret blend) not essential oils. that is why it says fragrance on the bottle.

The deodorant I received is white. If it is supposed to have African black soap in it, shouldn't it appear black or gray? I use your African black soap bar and thought the deodorant would look more like that.
Asked by: Kaya
To whom it may concern, I recently bought the african black soap 24 hour deodorant from amazon but I am worried about whether or not it is the real thing. Is it supposed to look white? Well, it’s not white white, it’s like an off-white...
Asked by: Diamond124
I just got this deodorant for the first time and all of the African black soap ones looked melted. Is this normal??? If so, how do i apply it? I wouldn't like it to be my fingers because that would be frustrating.

If i Buy the African Black deodorant in bulk how long will it keep and can I keep it in the fridge to make it keep longer?
Asked by: Tiffany77
Good morning,
I just purchased Your African Black Soap deodorant and while I love the results from it, I’m very confused by the application. How much should you apply? Even one or two swipes makes the product foam up and become very sticky. is this right
Asked by: Adamj2004
What do you use for fragrance? Are the essential oil based or fragrant oils and if so are they synthetic or not?
