African black soap, or simply black soap (also known by various local names such as ose dudu, sabulun salo, and ncha nkota), is a kind of soap originating in West Africa. Made by traditional methods, this luxury soap is rapidly gaining some much-deserved popularity. It is made from the ash of locally harvested African plants and dried peels, which gives the soap its characteristic dark colour. Black soap is becoming a popular toiletry product in the USA today but has been around for centuries among the Bantu people of Africa, West Africa particularly.
Black soap has been found to have some antimicrobial properties against skin microbiota such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Candida albicans.
Plant matter, such as plantain skins, palm tree leaves, cocoa pods and shea tree bark, is first sun-dried and then burned to produce ash (which supplies the alkali required to convert or saponify the oils and fats). Next, water and various oils and fats, such as coconut oil, palm oil, and shea butter, are added to the ash. The mixture is cooked and hand-stirred for at least 24 hours. After the soap solidifies, it is scooped out and set out to cure.
