I have been using black soap for almost 2 weeks now to help even my skin and lighten my scars and acne scars. I'm using Nubian Heritage black soap with shea butter and oats.

What brand did you use?
Has anyone used or is using black soap?
How long and how did it work for you?

Please answer..thanks

Well, I didn't think it will lighten my skin overall, just lighten my acne scars and other scars on my face and body. Over the years they have been so stubborn to remove and it's stressing me out. But, I don't think it's for lightening the skin. I've been using it along with the Bio Claire cream and Avon microbermabrasion and my mom said my skin looks clearer...but I asked her for her opinion so I don't know if she was saying it to be nice...:p

But, I guess I will definately know if it's working within a month hopeully. The bio claire only made my skin overall lighter, but my scars remained the same. I have been using the soap once or twice a day on my face, let it sit for about 5-10 min. and then rinse off. And once for the body...I have to force myself to keep this regimine up b/c if I don't see instant results I start getting bored and lose patience.

Can you please ask your aunt what face cream or other products she is using? What complexion was she before and how many shades lighter is she now?

Well I'm still using the black soap along with the microdermabrasion and bio claire. I'm glad tosay that I have not had any acne breakouts since so it does keep the acne at bay. I think it may help in lightening the acne spots a little but the process is slow. I have been receiving compliments from others saying my skin has a nice glow to it. I beleive that's also coming from the micordermabrasion as well. So, I'll continue and hopedfully all of these spots will dissapear :rolleyes:

micorderm abrasion removes the dead outer layer of the skin to show the new layer beneath. It's like a creme that has these particles that has a sand-like texture to it. Similar to facial scrubs, but finer. I let it sit for a bit, then rinse. So, if your lightening your skin, microdermabrasion helps the lightening process to speed up and have faster results. It also helps remove scar tissue, acne scars, blemishes, and so forth. I'm using the Avon microdermabrasion which I use 3 times a week and it has 4 levels on it which you use each level for 2 weeks until completed. I just started level 3 now, I noticed some improvement but nothing super drastic yet. It keeps the acne away too. It's a home type but there are even better dermabrasions used in medical clinics and spas. I eventualy want to try this level sooner or later to remove all my spot imperfections.

I use one black soap it start w a C? I got it form a beauty supply it help the pimple break out mit doesnt lighten my skin.

dermabrasion is the best for lightening the dark spots or 4 % or higher HQ....

Yeah, the black soap is doing well keep the acne away and smells really nice. Will it help lighten my acne spots and blemishes? I really want it to lighten my spots, it also has shea butter in it so tht should really hope too. I really like the dermabrasion because it makes my skin look brighter and it seem to work on my spots as well. Eventually, I would like to have the dermabrasion done professionally if my spots and scars completely vanishes.
