Moroccan Black Soap (Savon Beldi) is one of the most iconic elements of the hammam ritual. Made from olive paste and rich in Vitamin E, it gently cleanses, softens, and prepares the skin for exfoliation.

While the basic method is the same, adapting it to your skin type can help you get the most out of it.

Step-by-Step Use

1️⃣ Preparation
Take a warm shower or bath for 5–10 minutes. Steam opens the pores and softens the skin.

2️⃣ Application
On damp skin, apply a thin layer of Moroccan Black Soap. Massage gently and let it sit for 5–10 minutes.

3️⃣ Rinse & Exfoliate
Rinse thoroughly, then use a Kessa glove to exfoliate in gentle circular motions.

4️⃣ Moisturize
Follow with Argan Oil to restore hydration and nourish the skin.

Adapting Black Soap to Your Skin Type

💧 Dry Skin

• Limit exfoliation to once a week

• Follow with generous argan oil application

• Avoid leaving soap on the skin for more than 5 minutes

🌿 Oily Skin

• Use 1–2 times per week

• Focus on areas prone to buildup (back, chest, shoulders)

• Combine with ghassoul clay mask for deeper detox

🌸 Sensitive Skin

• Test on a small patch before full use

• Keep application time short (3–5 minutes)

• Exfoliate very gently or skip glove occasionally

⚖️ Combination Skin

• Adjust usage frequency depending on season

• Exfoliate more on rough/dry areas (elbows, knees)

• Moisturize thoroughly after each use

Why It Works

Moroccan Black Soap works for all skin types because it cleanses without stripping, leaving the skin soft, smooth, and prepped to absorb hydration.

The Takeaway

Black Soap isn’t just for special occasions—it’s a versatile weekly ritual that adapts to your skin’s needs. With just a few minutes, you can enjoy smoother, healthier skin year-round.
