Details

Alaffia's Authentic African Black Soap is likened to the home remedies of Togolese mamans. It's made from a centuries-old ?recipe of handcrafted fair trade and unrefined shea butter and Orangutan-safe West African ?palm oil†, and enhanced with eucalyptus and tea tree oils. Saponification is reached by adding potash (made from plantains and leaves) to the hot oils, ?and then cooking it for six hours. The last step is curing the soap in the sun ?for three weeks, resulting in a gentle and effective cleanser that clarifies and softens skin. Suitable for any skin type, even the most sensitive. Sulfate-free.

Ingredients

Azadirachta indica (Neem) Leaf Aqueous Extract, Saponified Butyrospermum parkii (Shea) Butter and Elaeis guineensis (Palm Kernel) Oil†, Lauryl Glucoside, Eucalyptus globulus (Eucalyptus) Oil, Melaleuca alternifolia (Tea Tree) Oil. †ORANGUTAN SAFE.

Empowering Women & Fighting Poverty

Alaffia proudly supports women and families in West Africa by sourcing certified fair trade ingredients from West Africa women cooperatives. Alaffia has empowered thousands of lives in West Africa, preserving traditional knowledge. There have been hundreds of cooperative members and thousands of women who have supported Alaffia production. To achieve their goals, Alaffia partners with GACE and other organizations on Empowerment Projects, including School-Building and Education-Based Projects, Maternal Health, and Environmental Sustainability. In 2018, Alaffia received the Award for Corporate Excellence from the U.S. State Department for Women’s Economic Empowerment.

Helping Mitigate Climate Change

Africa is disproportionately affected by increasing global temperatures. Alaffia’s goal is to increase resilience of West African communities to climate changes. Africa’s Sahel grasslands form a vulnerable “green wall” against encroaching deserts of North Africa. To help mitigate this threat, Alaffia partners with Global Alliance for Community Empowerment (GACE) to build and operate tree nurseries and provide housing for women in conservation and parklands management. The Namare Tree Nursery has been overseen by 60 women who prepare and build tree nursery sites, as well as help irrigate the newly planted seeds so they germinate into seedlings and young trees.
