HOW BLACK SOAP IS MADE
Black Soap is an incredible product that is just starting to be known and used in North America.
Ghanaian women have been making black soap with shea butter for generations. Taught by their mothers and grandmothers as they were growing up, Ghanaian women make and use black soap.
