I think it does, but the ingredients are supposed to be natural.

locally made black soap is very helpful in maintaining the skin, so dudu osun shouldnt be any different.

Nope, it does not, as i have been using it since 1999 till date. u can check on my pix on my profile, would not want to advertise for them 4 free though , but its good, d reason y i keep using it

it all depends on the type of skin you have. it toned me a bit when i was using it but when my friend decided to use it, her skin stayed the same.

Dudu Osun doesn't tone.
That is what i use,it only maintain your complexion whether you are fair or dark

pls does it not dry the skin? I tried using the regular black soap and it started wrinkling my skin a lil.

is dudu oshun any different from the regular black soap?

maybe it is exfoliating your skin ,,hence the looking lighter effect , I dont believe this is harmful

ok, fanx ayeesha

I use Dudu osun for my body only. It works but cos i am dark skinned and dont want to be too fair i use face wash.

Dudu oshun exfoliates ur skin and makes it glow, i make black soap for myself and the ingredients i put is the black soap itself mixed with aloe vera, sulphur, honey, lime and oshun (cam wood). The original oshun which is dark red in colour and hard to find anyway really tones the body, but in a natural way. It does not have any side effect at all. Also lime tones the body. So it preferable buying blacksoap or making yours instead of buying toilet soap. Some people react to some of the ingredients in the blacksoap, so if you are making your own black soap, you may not put the ingredient that makes you react.

My First Post in this section: DUDU OSUN IS UTTER CRAP!!!!!

Why?

did it breakout your skin?

DuDu Osun is

I love IT!! Its amazing for the skin, a very good exfoliator, removes dead skin cells so your skin glows!!
Im kinda fair in general but this soap does not tone it just thoroughly cleanses,

The west are scouring sites for the original Black soap (dudu osun is the nigerian version and there is a ghanian version which is for sensitive skin).
There are so many fakes out on the market,

^ original has a red line when it's opened its their trademark any fakes that lines it red will get in trouble.
at poster yes it tones, i was a fair person i have gone dark through the years, cause of sun and stuff but i started dudu osun and i went back to my original colour which i was in high school but its almost a year now after i went back to my normal color, it stays the same i thought its gonna continue toning but it dinnt so its sort of confusing

Hun, i dont think its toning you, i think it exfoliated all the dead cells away, hence, bringing up all the renewed natural skin colour.
When you stay in the sun too much without proper skin protection (suncream) you will get a tan/burn,
To get rid of your suntan just exfoliate lots and protect your skin, before you know it you have gone back to your normal skin tone,
That why i said dudu osun doen't tone otherwise, like you said it would have lightened you more than your original colour,

isnt this the one, you guys are using?

^no never seen that before, what happened to the yellow packaged one

It worked . . . been using it for a few months. Toned my skin, heck 95% of the marks on my body are gone. I think it speeds up the process of skin renewal.
And it softens my flesh. . . . loff it. I just hate the smell

according to the vendors and users, they(manufactures) have stopped making the brownish one. that one is the only one available both in beauty stores and online

true. thinking of it now it didnt tone me altho i look brighter its just my original color especially that both my parent have been using it longer than me and truss me they are not toned

~Sissy~:

you use it on both body and face?

Yea, for my night shower. I have a lil separate face sponge.


@whiteroses

It works for some, not for others. A lot of nairalanders will agree with you. try the black packaged ones, [i]they [/i]might work.
It's sold on ebay/amazon

^tanks i use the yellow packaged ones its fine so far, but dont think i'd like to try that if it will tone my skin tho cos i'm a bit light naturally def dont wanna go lighter

now that you mentioned it, it did make my skin a few shades lighter lol ok, nvm then

dats gd
