Is black african soap beneficial for use? are there any bad side effects from its use?

African black soap is all natural, made using plants originating in West Africa, so people with sensitive skin and use it. It is antibacterial and can help acne, may help reduce fine lines, dark spots, razor bumps, eczema, it is exfoliating. It should be used in small quantities, as it can cause irritation, redness, dryness. In general, it is safe. Hope it helps.
