SheaMoisture African Black Soap Clarifying Facial Wash & Scrub - 4 oz

Grew up with severe cystic and hormonal acne, and not only did this practically make it vanish, it helped reverse a lot of the damage acne left behind. I adore this product beyond words. Its gentle yet super effective. I use it in the shower, let it sit for 5 minutes, wash off, and put on some hyaluronic acid face cream afterwards and my skin feels clean and clear for days. Its just my holy grail of an item and I literally recommend it to everyone under the sun.

The trick is massage on dry face with dry fingers then rinse off with warm water. Leaves skin clean and soft. It exfoliates well 🙂. I tried applying to damp face as instructed but I felt it was too watery, then I found it works much better without water.

I’ve been using this cleanser for months as it’s been the only thing that has worked for me without intense actives in it. Although I like it, the microbeads are SO annoying! They get everywhere (my eyes, nose, hair, etc.) and it is a chore to get them off. If SheaMoisture could release a version WITHOUT those stupid beads, it would be top tier.

The soap leaves a waxy residue on my face after using it. The micro beads stick in my eyelashes and get in my eyes. Love Shea Moisture but this product is lower quality than others I have used by the same brand.

💕💕💕"The African Black Soap Facial Wash & Scrub is everything I’ve been looking for in a skincare product! It cleanses my skin thoroughly while gently exfoliating, leaving it feeling soft and refreshed. After using it consistently, my skin has looked clearer and more even-toned. It’s great for fighting breakouts without irritating my skin, and it has this natural, calming scent that I absolutely love. I also appreciate how it’s made with all-natural ingredients—my skin feels nourished and balanced after every use. This has definitely earned a permanent spot in my routine!" 😊💕💕💕💕 😎💕 "I can't get enough of the African Black Soap Facial Wash & Scrub! It’s so gentle but effective—my skin feels clean, soft, and rejuvenated after every use. It’s perfect for my combination skin, and it’s helped reduce the number of breakouts I was having. The exfoliating beads are fine enough that they don't feel harsh, but they still do a great job of sloughing off dead skin. Plus, it has a natural, earthy scent that’s both refreshing and calming. This is definitely one of my new holy grail skincare products!" 💕💕💕💕 💕"I've been using the African Black Soap Facial Wash & Scrub for a few weeks now, and I’m in love! It’s the perfect combination of cleanser and exfoliator, leaving my skin feeling super clean without any dryness. It’s been a game-changer for my acne-prone skin, helping to clear up blemishes and reduce redness. The gentle scrub is ideal for everyday use, and the natural ingredients really make a difference. My skin feels nourished, refreshed, and healthier—definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a natural, effective skincare product!" 🧼🧴😊❤💞

I add this to my face routine twice a week. I had these little white bumps under my eyes and its really pulled those out of my face. Leaves your face soft and free from blemishes.

Left my skin feeling waxy or with product buildup

This stuff works so well and fast. It has always been great for me and my family. 10/10

Took away all my acne and acne scars and made my face nice and smooth

This face wash is amazing. I’ve always had a problem being consistent with these things but, I use this face wash every night. It’s been about four weeks now and my face has cleared up a lot. The dark spots on my cheeks have faded and my face is getting clearer each day. It’s not too water or too thick but, just right. I will forever use this product.

I started using this product a few days ago and started breaking out, i brushed it off as the product not agreeing with my skin then i took a closer look and saw the microbeads IN my pimples. I popped a pimple and a microbead came out. breakouts everywhere. Ive never had this problem with a scrub before. Really disappointed i usually love sheamoisture products. Maybe a natural exfoliant, ground walnut shells, sugar, anything really besides plastic microbeads. terrible for the enviroment and terrible for your skin.

Price went up $3 and quality isn’t the same.

I have extreme sensitive skin. Everything breaks me out. But this right here is the best face wash scrub I have ever used in my life! I recommend this to everyone!!!

Loved using it to wash my face. It felt grainy but wasn’t too rough and it was easy to apply and wash off my face. I used it at night, great to use after getting makeup off

Started using this product 6 months ago and was extremely pleased. I enjoyed the product so much that I recommended the product to my family members., After running low I purchased additional bottles. What a change in 6 months!!! As commented by another customer, the product no longer has a thick consistency but poured out in my hand like water. The smell of the black Jamaican soap, the beads, and tea tree oil are no longer present in the product. Please return to the original formula, which consisted of the natural and quality ingredients listed on the packaging but not in the container.

I love this product. Feels great on the skin, and gently exfoliates without causing redness. Has a nice smell to it that isn’t overpowering. Would recommend.

I use alot of other shea moisture products and decided to try this one as well and was impressed.

This seems to be a nice product for those who want to use more natural facial products. I have combination skin. It worked okay for my skin, but my skin requires more clinical-strength products to stay in order. I’d recommend for someone who has very minimal skin issues.

I loved this when I used it for day I’m doing long skin care process. Use with spin brush for great result, which allows all other skin care product to absorb into pours/ skin.

I wanted to love this product, as I i the mud mask, the bar soap, and the moisturizer… but I just don’t. Maybe my skin type is just not right for this, although it says for all types on the packaging. I generally have oily skin and the other products from this brand and type, have all worked well for me but this one made me break out like crazy!!! I’m talking big, cystic type pimples all over and it seemed to make my skin even oilier. I would’ve given less stars if I didn’t love the brand and their other products so much. Along with the smell, I love, but this particular product just didn’t do well for me. Definitely seems like it would do better for someone with drier skin! Wish it said that on the packaging!
