Siberian black soap has long been the signature product of the Russian beauty brand Granny Agafia’s Recipes. It is quite popular in Russia and its neighbouring countries. Why exactly does this product enjoy such immense popularity and a high demand? Read on to learn!
Granny Agafia’s Recipes was the first brand launched by the cosmetic company Pervoe Reshenie (“First Solution”). The first products branded as Granny Agafia’s Recipes were released in 2002 and quickly became popular among both women and men.
These products were allegedly based on traditional recipes preserved by the Siberian herbalist Agafia Tikhonovna Yermakova. Although it later became known that Agafia Yermakova had been invented by the company’s founder Andrey Trubnikov for marketing purposes, the revelation didn’t affect the popularity of Granny Agafia’s Recipes in the slightest.
Today, the brand includes a number of special collections such as Agafia’s Herbs, Agafia’s First Aid Kit, Agafia’s Amazing Series, Agafia’s Bath, Agafia’s 5 Juices, Agafia’s Rubs, White Agafia, Agafia’s 100 Herbs, and Agafia’s Treats. The famous Siberian black soap belongs to the collection entitled Agafia’s Herbs.
Natural Siberian black soap by Granny Agafia’s recipes is also known as Agafia’s black soap, Siberian bath soap, or simply Agafia’s soap. It is formulated with a unique blend of 37 Siberian herbs, as well as birch tar and chaga mushroom extract that are responsible for the soap’s signature black colour. Due to its high content of natural ingredients, the soap has amazing skin and hair benefits.
Siberian black soap is a hair and body soap that you can use not just for bathing or showering at home, but also in a sauna or a steam room. In fact, the manufacturer claims that the soap is most effective when used in a steam room or a sauna. Due to its high content of various natural ingredients, the soap not only effectively removes impurities, but also takes good care of the skin and hair.
For example, carrier and essential oils obtained from Siberian pine, soybean, sea buckthorn, rose hip, linseed, rosemary, juniper, amaranth and silver fir actively nourish and moisturise the skin and hair, have a strengthening, anti-inflammatory and stimulating effect, boost the skin’s firmness and elasticity, and make the hair shinier and more manageable.
The soap also contains a mix of plant extracts extracted from licorice, soapwort, marshmallow, burdock, oak bark, Baikal skullcap, hops, golden root, bearberry, hyssop, elecampane, oats, lungwort, lemon balm, birch, sage, chamomile, nettle and yarrow. These extracts complement and enhance the effect of the oils contained in the soap, as well as give the product its amazing herbal smell.
By the way, the unique aroma of Agafia’s black soap has an aromatherapeutic effect if the soap is used in a steam room or a sauna. It helps to relax and get rid of intrusive thoughts, gives a mood and energy boost, relieves stress and anxiety. Do not be upset if you don’t have a chance to use the soap in a steam room; it will be just as fragrant if you use in the shower. Its smell will fill your bathroom with the refreshing coolness of a Siberian forest and turn your everyday shower into a luxurious spa treatment.
Thanks to its thick texture, the soap is very easy and pleasant to use. It lathers well, rinses off easily, and doesn’t strip the hair and skin of moisture. According to the manufacturer, it took the team of Pervoe Reshenie three years to develop the perfect formula to ensure that the soap is as safe and effective as possible.
