Product Description
Jessica: “This soap has an amazing smell and feel. Smells like licorice and lathers up so creamy. It feels really good on my eczema prone hands and leaves them feeling clean but not dry. Plus my 4 year old daughter loves that it’s black, I can’t get her to stop washing her hands with it!” (Review)
Who is it for ?
Everyone!
What is it ?
We are definitely in love with Bamboo! One of the world’s superb renewable resources, providing everything from fabric to homewares…well now you can wash with it too!
Bamboo charcoal is made by burning pieces of bamboo at temperatures above 800 degrees, and provides the ultimate natural beauty resource.
Bamboo charcoal absorbs odors, can purify water, and has lots of health and beauty benefits for your skin.
Bamboo Charcoal soap has long been prized in Asia to clear, smoothe, absorb excess oil, soften roughness generally improve skin condition and washes away clean, leaving skin soft and fresh.
It is a mild exfoliant so is great for oily, spotty skin but equally for dry and sensitive, delicate skin.
Liquorice root extract is added a natural antimicrobial herb for it’s anti-inflammatory and demulcent ( forms a soothing protective film) properties, may help some skin conditions like eczema, acne
With a fabulously dense creamy black lather this is a lot of fun to use with kiddies too who love the contrast of the black lather with their skin, and how it washes clean away.
Scented with a zingy blend of antiseptic Star anise and peppermint oils.

I’m obsessed with this soap never has my skin felt so good. The smell is exquisite and each bar lasts me one week. Highly recommend. The postage is exceptional so fast. Love Love Love

Thank you for your kind words and taking the time to write, we appreciate it.
We are really glad you are enjoying the soap.
A bar should last you a lot longer than a week, remember to keep it out of running water when not in use, our new Air Dry Soap Savers are great for helping with this, they look fantastic and the more of them you buy, the more you save 🙂

I am just about to purchase this soap after using the black chrysanthemum face bar. If it is even half as good I will still be impressed. Hoping I can get some of the Black Chrysanthemum soap again soon too!

When I opened the sample of Black Velvet Bamboo Charcoal soap I was surprised at the perfume of Liquorice. Even more surprised that the smell of liquorice does not linger on the skin. The best surprise though was the wonderful soothing effect this product had on my skin. It also improved the condition of my feet as I usually have cracked heels. Thanks Beauty and the Bees!

The best facial soap I’ve tried yet. It leaves my skin with a deep-down cleansed feeling and absorbs oil. It does not leave my skin feeling ‘stripped down’ or dry, but rather leaves it feeling properly balanced. I finish up with the vinegar and herb rinse and my skin is left feeling very soft and clear. I like that it can be used for both face and body.
