Dr. Woods Raw Black Soap
Our Castle and Black Soaps are safe and effective for hundreds of household uses, but specially formulated for gentle skin care.
Dr. Woods Coconut Papaya Black Soap's aromatic fragrance sends your senses to a tropical paradise, while leaving your skin smooth, hydrated and healthy. Our unique formula is a gentle exfoliant and a powerful, deep cleanser that rejuvenates the skin without any need for harsh detergents or toxic additives.
West African women, using recipes over 100 years old, produce black soap using plantain skins and other local plant materials. Black soap is an abundant source of skin-nourishing nutrients A, E and iron in a unique formulation that provides a luxuriously rich and gentle all-purpose cleanser for your face and body.
We offer our Fair Trade Organic Shea Butter, one of Nature's most effective and versatile Health & Beauty resources, across all Dr. Woods Black and Castile Soaps. Sustainably harvested from the nut of the Karite Shea Tree, indigenous to Ghana, our Shea Butter is a bountiful source of Vitamins A and E, as well as essential fatty acids to soothe and balance your skin. We use Shea Butter in its purest form - Raw and Organic - in order to retain its highest level of therapeutic and healing properties.
