African Black Soap contains Vitamin A that enhances collagen production which improves your skin’s elasticity and fights off ageing. It is also rich in amino acids, vitamins, minerals and anti-inflammatory abilities that soften, soothe and repair your skin.
In fact, a study in the Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology Research compared African black soap with medicated soaps. According to the research, Black soap was more effective at removing and reducing certain bacteria than medicated soaps.
The Shea Butter in the soap also has numerous benefits for your skin.
These days, the popularity of African black soap has grown so much that it is being shipped outside Africa to other continents for use in skincare products.
However, the question that has been asked by some people is: Does African Black soap lighten the skin?
Truthfully, there is no clear-cut answer to this as the soap works uniquely on different skin types. It heals the skin and enhances your natural skin tone.
The African black soap may eventually reduce hyperpigmentation but not lighten your skin as some products do. It works for most skin types without destabilizing the balance due to its carefully selected ingredients.
You should know that this natural skin-enhancing soap will not make your skin a few shades lighter as you continue using it; instead, it allows your skin to take a rather natural route towards lightening.
According to a research survey, 45% of people admitted being “very satisfied” and 40% reported being “somewhat satisfied” with the using of black soap for reducing the appearance of dark spots on their skin. This was conducted by Dermatologist Dr. Lin while at William Carey University College of Osteopathic Medicine in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, Drs. Nabatian and Halverstam were also with Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University, Division of Dermatology in New York.
If you intend to use black soap for lightening dark spots and areas on your body, you can combine it with other natural skin lightening products for enhanced results.
If you don't need to lighten affected parts of your body, we encourage you to learn to love your natural skin tone.
