What is Raw Organic Nigerian Black Soap?

Hand made in the heart of Nigeria. We are so unbelievably proud of our Raw African Black Soap and it's beautiful origins. We partnered with skilled artisans to develop a high quality, traditional soap with a modern spin. Minimal yet effective ingredients that are both certified organic & cruelty free make our RAW African Black Soap truly unique.

From start to finish it takes Nigerian artisans approximately 1 week to produce this wonderful soap. We then import the raw soap to our New Jersey facility where Timeless experts break down and hand shape the raw soap into bars for you to enjoy.

Each bar sold supports the wonderful, hard working women of Nigeria.

  • Shea Butter - Our African black soap contains shea butter, which moisturizes skin but doesn't clog pores. Shea is derived from nuts that grow on trees in West and Central Africa, and is known for being so nourishing to the skin that even in Africa's dry climate it works to soothe thirsty skin. Shea butter possesses the ability to improve pesky skin blemishes, eczema, wrinkles and dermatitis. Shea is also known to soothe insect bites, sunburn and frostbite; this butter packs a powerful punch for an array of skin ailments.
