it is the best I have ever used, 20 Aug. 2014

For me, it is the best I have ever used! This product is worth a try.

I've been monitoring reviews for this product for a few months on different sites. I was skeptical of buying because most times such positive reviews are trumped up. I have had sensitive skin since i was a teenager, prone to dryness and acne and in-grown hairs if not especially taken care of. As a woman of colour, I also have skin that is prone to hyper-pigmentation when I do not take care to avoid dryness, acne and in-grown hairs. I have tried loads of products and regimes on and for my skin over the years (moisturisers, treatments, medications and shower products). Some cost a fortune, some pennies; my goal was to find something that finally brings my skin to the health I've always dreamed of since teenage and then adult hormones decimated my skin. Whatever product(s) and regime I choose also needed to be financially and practically convenient and sustainable.

I have now settled on the use of...

Best soap I have ever used, 13 Jan. 2014
This soap takes care of skin problems.i have been using it on my baby who had mild eczema this soap has helped clear my baby's skin. It is very mild and does not dry out your skin like other soaps do. My order was a bit delayed but that was down to me for not putting my name on the delivery address I contacted seller and I got a response right away and got my order within few days as promised by the seller and I received two small tubs of shea butter from seller for free to make up for the delayed delivery. Other than that this the best soap out there, I'm using it on myself and my baby. This soap and the shea butter work together very well they leave your skin feeling so soft. I will be buying this soap again and again from this seller because I was happy with their customer service. Would recommend

Nasty!, 29 Nov. 2014

The product is described as being "made in Ghana using a Traditional formula". The tub I received had a label saying "made in the UK". The advertising is therefore misleading and possibly unlawful.

Notwithstanding the above, I used the product in the shower and it has a distinct lemon smell. In particular, it smells like a household cleaning product. This is very surprising as the ingredients are listed on the tub as being shea butter, coconut oil, palm kernel oil and cocoa pod ash. Unless there is some odd chemical reaction going on, how on earth should this smell of lemons?

A further criticism of this product is that it burns in sensitive areas. This suggests to me that not all the sodium hydroxide from the cocoa pod ash has been neutralised.

I have used Ghanaian African black soap sold by Akamuti (
