Hi ladies,

I'm trying to decide which is better to use for my face. Since I've hit my thirties, I've had to combat this terrible acne and dark spots. Well, I was wondering which soap is better for both problems and is non-irritating or non-pore clogging. I've seen rave reviews on the Nasabb website for the black soap. But I was also on another site called Karite Gold that featured shea soap for acne problems. The ingredients listed seemed pretty beneficial for acne prone skin and the added shea butter is also great for dark spots. I don't know whether my skin could handle using straight shea butter as a moisturizer, because it can be quite heavy even if using a little bit. So I like to use Emu Oil, very penetrating and my face doesn't feel greasy at all, plus you can add whatever essential oil to the emu oil and have confidence in knowing the essential oils are going right into the pores because Emu oil is an excellent carrier oil. So you see, I have the right moisturizer, now I just need the right cleanser. I wish I could find a liquid soap that's natural but I've always been told years ago that bar soap was better for some reason. Please help me ladies, especially those who have tried both soaps and can give me an honest comparison between the two. Thanks So Much http://www.longhaircareforum.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
