I'm looking for a body wash that isnt too pricey. I saw that Cauldie has a bodywash for 12 dollars (tho its 6.1 oz).

i Have been using african black soap (got from iherb.com)

Any suggestions? I would like to get Dr. H but its so pricey.

Does anyone have one they like

If you don't mind bar soap go to Nasabb dot com. This is the real black soap, all the others are imitations including the liquid. And there're HUGE bars. Check it out. LOTS OF INFO. Love it.

I agree with susiq - i bought african soap from nasabb and it is brilliant. They are out of stock of it at the moment, but they are the only stockists of original soap that I know.

Okay, now I am intrigued and put myself on the waiting list to try this soap. I love soaps!
What kind of results/reviews has anyone had they would care to share?

AnnieR did you read the info on Nasabb's black soap? Its supposed to clear up acne. I did use it a few times on my face to clean up some acne spots and they dried up and just dropped off. Normally I don't use ANY sort of bar soap on my face and I wanted to see if what Nasabb said about break outs was true.......and it was. Other than that I loved using it from the neck down. I did wash my hair with it; but didn't like it; made my hair feel greasy. Some people like it though. You have to go to the testimonial pages to read what others said.

Shea Terra Organic offers two liquid black soap products they say are from "master soap makers of the Yoruba tribe". I've often wanted to try them.

Shea Terra African Lemongrass Indigenous Black Soap Elixir

SusieQ-I read the product description, that is what peaked my interest! I was just being skeptical for once in my lemming life. I just wanted to see if anybody had tried it AND IT WORKED (like that has EVER stopped me before)!!! Laughing
I have never used bar soap on my face before either, it did sound scary to me. But you have tried and it didn't dry out your face or make it break out?
I am the worst at wanting to try something, buying it and then being stuck with another cream,lotion, etc. With my sensitive skin, its always a gamble.
This though to me looked fascinating. Sounds like it is better for my skin though, than hair. Nasabb was sold out but looks like there are other places to try.
Now that I have heard it might actually work, I have got to try it and some for my son for sure.
I love the idea of more natural products.
Thanks everyone.

Yes, I heard it can also help cure melanoma... Has anyone heard of black salve? This is supposed to be some kind of african herbal cure for melanoma similar to black soap. Has anyone tried microdermabrasion?

Thanks in advance

Thanks for the website.

I just got in my order of the black soap and I love it! It foams up ever so nicely and doesn't feel like it strips your skin at all. In fact, my skin felt very soft afterward even though i feel my skin is really dry right now from the heaters.
I ordered the 1 lb., which was a huge chunk and I am going to give some away.
