While modern soap can dry out the skin, or irritate it with synthetic chemicals, this traditional Moroccan-style black soap exfoliate and cleanses your skin the natural way. It contains just a handful of ingredients, primarily olive oil. This method of cleansing the skin has a rich history and remains an essential cleanser today in some parts of the world.

Olive oil has been used on the skin for centuries, thanks to its rejuvenating properties. Today we know that much of these are down to the fact it is packed with vitamin E and polyphenols (micronutrients found only in plants which have been shown to protect the skin and reverse ageing indicators like fine lines and wrinkles).

Washing your face or body with black soap is a great way to exfoliate. It removes dirt and dead skin cells, your skin smooth and clear. It is recommended to use it during a hot bath or shower, massaging the soap into your skin and leaving it for a few minutes before. Then, for a maximum exfoliating effect, you can use a Kessa glove to remove any debris and dead skin. After just one use, you will notice a difference and, used regularly, it will keep your skin clear and moisturized.
