You probably already thought of this but just to get this topic rolling! What about Nubian Heritage's African Black Soap?.. I love it. Smells awesome, non-drying, creamy lather, etc. You can buy it really cheap on iHerb as well, with good shipping. (: They have other soaps that also smell amazing.

I'm not really going to be too helpful I'm afraid, but did want to at least reply in some form.

I haven't actully used Black African Soap mainly because it is hard to find it here (or other pure / natural products like shea, and cocoa butters for that matter). I did find these Australian websites when I googled (though I can't vouch for the products or the companies):

I would have to agree with Devlyn though, that iherb has great products and very good and cheap shipping (cheaper than these sites within Australia - can you believe that?!)

Will be watching this thread to see if anyone else chimes in with some good local sources.

Nubian Heritage is AWESOME. It's all I ever use, although I don't just stick to the African Black Soap. I even use it to wash my hair, with a ACV rinse. I highly recommend it too if she can get her hands on it.
