My skin is very sensitive and oily. Would African Black Soap be okay to use?

Definitely - I also have sensitive and oily skin and it's working wonders for me. Just make sure you moisturize after. I personally use a mix of coconut oil, Shea butter, and grapeseed oil to moisturize at night. In the morning I moisturize with L'Oréal face moisturizer:)

If you do have sensitive skin, make sure you buy soap that includes raw Shea butter in the mixture. I didn't realize and bought a homemade mixture that did not include Shea butter- and it burned an stug my face so bad that it looked like a tomato and my skin peeled off! (It was veryyyy strog, and if I didn't have sensitive skin I would use it because it cleaned my face so well and helped my acne). So just make sure it has Shea in it!

Shauna, I got a sample in one of beauty sage.com's awesome sample boxes... I have your same skin type and all it did was leave my skin squeaky clean and fresh feeling... No irritation at all. I am going to try it with my brand new clarisonic Mia 2.
