  • Ose Dudu (Black soap) an ancient sustainable specialty soap, made using centuries-old recipes and methods passed through generations, from the hands of elders who have done it since their parents taught them. It is made mostly in West Africa, specifically Ghana and Nigeria. The “secret” is in the ashes of cocoa pods, plantain leaves, and palm fronds, in various combinations.

    I have so much respect for my African sisters because they work so hard to produce soaps that oftentimes I don’t even bother to think 🤔 about what it takes to make for me to be clean 💯💜💯

    My mom is from a place where they make it. I was recently told that many of the older women who make it are dying off and their kids don't want to be bothered with continuing the art. They'd rather run to big cities like Lagos or Ibadan to work menial or low level jobs. I was really saddened by that.

      This is hard work and I support these women, however it is so hard and the white man or men in general want to make all the money off their labor, it sucks... But I would buy straight from them without the middle man!...

      they r being exploited.payed less for all the hard labour and most importantly they grew up that way;doing what they do and struggling to make life out of it so much that their hard times have become their comfort zone and they r not ready to get out of their comfort zone.u know the sayx right;if u want to get rich or achieve smthing u must get out of ur comfort zone.so what do they need then?they need u and me to trade with them fairly.not to exploit them and to educate them and help them make money out of this.
