Handcrafted in Ghana using a traditional recipe passed down through generations, this soap skips synthetic fragrance, color, and preservatives entirely — just roasted cocoa pods, plantain skin ash, shea butter, and purified water. The natural minerals and antioxidants in that combination work on breakouts and dark spots while shea butter keeps skin from feeling stripped afterward, making it suited to acne-prone, oily, and dry skin alike.

To use: lather a small piece between wet hands or on a sponge (it lathers easily, so a little goes far), then apply the lather rather than the bar directly to skin, since small soap particles can otherwise cause irritation. Follow with a moisturizer, especially if skin feels dry afterward. As with any natural product, patch test 48 hours before first use and discontinue if irritation develops. Keep away from eyes. Store in a cool, dry spot, ideally an airtight container, for a shelf life of about 24 months.
