Gentle, yet Effective!

I used the exfoliator and thought it was absolutely fabulous. I recently went camping with my family, and roughing it in the woods forced me to neglect my skin completely – and it showed. My usually even-toned and smooth legs were covered in a blotchy tan, looking dry and unkempt.

One session in my hot shower with the exfoliating mitt and the black soap left my skin literally GLOWING. I am quite speechless at how effective, yet gentle it was – It didn’t irritate the multiple insect bites I came back with, but seemed to have taken off the dull, damaged skin my body was coated with.

I haven’t tried it without the mitt though (as a regular soap) – I’m going to keep it as a variation in my shower routine when I can afford to take a relaxed shower. If someone has, please share your experience. — Meg Pa

New to this but its quite interesting to use

First of all in order to use this product you MUST have a shower that can produce hot water and steam or else the black soap won’t work. The soap mixed with the mitt makes a good combination by taking and cleaning all of the dead skin off your skin and making you feel light afterwards. — Frank

Amazing spa-like experience!

Exfoliating your body is pretty high on the list of importance. Exfoliating the body not only feels great but it super helpful for all those other rituals like shaving and self-tanning. If you’re body is nicely exfoliated it makes shaving and applying those self-tanners a breeze! I have used a lot of drugstore brand exfoliating products and they do an OK job for the money. Using the Chaacoca Moroccan Black Soap – Citrus* and Moroccan Exfoliating Mitt and has been an amazing spa-like experience!

The first step to using this product is hydrating your body in a hot shower for 5 minutes. This is important for the product to work effectively. The soap, which comes in a generous 8 oz tube, is to be smoothed over your whole body working in with a circular motion. There will be no lather, you are just covering your body with the soap using only your hands. I don’t suggest using any type of cloth or bath sponge, it defeats the purpose of the whole process. Leave the soap on your body for 5 minutes. This was the most challenging for me, to stand in the shower for 5 minutes and wait! I had to move the shower head spray to the side so I didn’t get washed off before the 5 minutes. After the 5 minutes, rinse off with warm water and then it’s time to use the Moroccan Mitt!

The Mitt is used in a circular motion and layers of dead skin will roll off onto the Mitt. The texture of the Mitt will be rougher than your normal bath scrub but it shouldn’t bother you after a bit. Then it’s time to rinse again and wash off with your regular body soap. The end result is by far the most gloriously soft, smooth, moisturized skin you have felt all week!!

Overall, I am incredibly happy with the Chaacoca Moroccan Black Soap and Exfoliating Mitt. I have the Citrus version and Eucalyptus is also available. These two products together create such a pampering experience that all of us women/moms/extraordinaire truly deserve in our lives! While I’m not heavy into self-tanning I think this would be a great ritual to use before applying self-tanners. I know for a fact this is great to use before shaving.*A sample was provided by the company for review but this review reflects my HONEST opinions* — Tina
