Cofactor Synergy

Raw ingredients still have all their therapeutic properties intact. If just one raw ingredient has 5-10 powerful cofactors, imagine what could happen when a product has SEVERAL raw ingredients working together!

That's what we have: Cofactor synergy! It causes all our products to be uncommonly powerful and naturally multifunctional!

Ethically & Sustainably Sourced

Many natural ingredients, like coffee, shea butter and mica are high-risk crops for unethical and unsustainable sourcing. We research and diligently select proven fair trade suppliers, and are cruelty-free.

The mothers share the recipes with their daughters, and they create soap not only for their families, but to sell at markets as well. It creates income for their families and allows their daughters to go to school.

Due to the simple but powerful nature of African Black Soap, it delivers many benefits for ALL skin types:

We purchase our African Black Soap as a base from a coop of women in Ghana. Then we rebatch it with our Savvy flair: more ash, french green clay for detox, and our essential oil blend. We mold the batches into bars and cut them to our specifications.

We are the only brand (to date) that cut our soap slices into smaller cubes- this extends the life of the soap and makes it much easier to store. Each soap bar lasts AT LEAST 4 months if used on the whole body. It lasts MUCH LONGER as a facial soap only.

African Black Soap is the only soap you will ever need again. You and your whole family.

Facial Trivium Set
Facial Trivium Set 

The word “Trivium” defines the place where three roads meet. And in this case, that is exactly what has happened.

Savvy Bohème set out on a journey to discover the most effective, yet simplistic way to care for the face without complicated steps, “advanced technology”, or using ingredients with extra-long syllables including the letters “Z” and “X”- we really do like to stick to the basics.

And during our first year of discovery, our customers played a very large role in directing our steps. Over and over, people were telling us how they were using their Savvy Bohème products, and a common thread was occurring in the conversations: combine the African Black Soap lather and Bisous Pour Tous Facial Exfoliant to save a step; Then apply Raven’s Balm to freshly prepared skin.

Everyone kept saying the same thing: They loved how it made their skin look and feel.

So, I started training our new customers to do the same, and have gotten the same reviews: “Love it!”

But, as always, I want you all to understand how and why the combination works so well. So if you are interested, read this:

African Black Soap is an extremely clarifying facial (and body…and hair) cleanser that removes makeup and environmental grime and draws impurities to the surface of the skin.

Bisous Pour Tous Facial Exfoliant uses organic, Fair Trade coffee and sugar as gentle exfoliants to remove dead skin, and contains naturally occurring glycolic acid (an alpha hydroxy acid) to give you a deep exfoliation, making your face offensive to free radicals (aka..zit and wrinkle causers!). Also, highly beneficial oils, kosher vegetable glycerin, and honey are used to remove the oxidized oils holding the dead skin to your face and moisturize the new cellular turnover.

Raven’s Balm moisturizes your freshly prepared palette and gives your face a breathable moisture barrier of protection. It works double-duty as a primer for foundation makeup, too! 

Directions: Lather African Black Soap into hands; Set soap bar/cube aside. Sprinkle Bisous Pour Tous Facial Exfoliant into lather and scrub face in a circular motion. Rinse. Finish with Raven’s Balm on clean, towel-dried skin.

Ingredients: {Ravens Balm} Olive Oil, Candelilla Wax, Evening Primrose Oil, Shea Butter, Arrowroot Powder, Frankincense Oil, Myrrh Resin, Natural Cherry and Almond Oils, Vanilla Oil.  {Bisous Pour Tous Facial Exfoliant} Raw, Organic, Fair Trade Certified Sugar, Olive Oil, Grapeseed Oil, Organic Coconut Oil, Fair Trade Certified Ground Coffee, Sweet Almond Oil, Kosher Vegetable Glycerin, Honey, Essential Oils, Vitamin E. {African Black Soap} Raw Shea Butter, Raw Coconut Oil, Raw Palm Kernel Oil, Cocoa Pod Ash, French Green Clay, Essential Oil Blend, Coconut Pod Ash


Skincare Doesn't Have To Be Complicated.

All skin works the same way:

Your face is a brick wall. On every given day, it has 25-30 layers of dead skin (bricks) being tightly secured by your body's natural oils (mortar), and protected by an invisible forcefield called the acid mantle.

Those first one or two layers need to take a hike daily in order to keep the skin looking fresh and healthy. As they do, the bricks behind them come to the surface, fresh and new, until the next day. This is called cellular turnover. It happens on a 30-day cycle.

But every mason knows, the best way to remove bricks without damaging the whole wall is to start by removing the mortar first.

And every chemist knows that like removes like. In this case, oil releases oil.

When the mortar is dissolved, the brick easily surrenders. And if it's done correctly, the invisible forcefield is left undisturbed too, leaving your complexion protected, radiant, healthy, and ready to GLOW for the day!

We've created a powerful, simple, extremely effective system for healthy cellular turnover, and we get it done with only THREE products! And we've done it all with REAL, RAW FOOD.

Our process and formulations allow our products to be effective for ALL skin types, removing the need for dozens of products on your counter!

It's so simple! It's the Savvy Bohemian way!
