I hope all is well. I know its been a while, but I'm going to try to be a bit more regular with posting. In one of my earlier posts, I mentioned that I would discuss beauty issues other than hair every once in a while. So today, I thought I would talk about sea salt. Sea salt is very, very healthy for the skin. It contains sizable amounts of magnesium, calcium and potassium among other minerals. I just started using it, and its probably the best exfoliant I've ever used.
Right now, I'm using "Crystal Line Dead Sea Sea Salt." I got a 16.9 fl ounce jar from Marshall's for $4.50. (Sidebar: I looove Marshalls, especially the skin/make up section, because you can find some really great stuff for a cheap price) "Crystal Line" is a mix of Shea butter and Sea Salt. The Directions for use are as follows:
- Wet skin and apply generous amount
- Massage for 1-2 minutes in circular motions (sometimes I do longer)
- Rinse with warm water
Its pretty simple, and the results are great. Your skin will feel super smooth. I would suggest using sea salt scrub at night. I say this because after I used it my skin was extra shiny - probably because of the shea butter. If you used it at night your skin will still feel extra smooth and soft in the morning. Of course, sea salt scrub can be used on the entire body, but I used mine just for my face. Right now, I want to stick to using it once a week.
Other things to remember for healthy, glowing skin:
- Drink water
- Eat fruits and vegetables
- Find a good moisturizer (I'm a cocoa butter fan lol)
If you decide to try sea salt scrub, I hope you find it as beneficial as I did!
Much Love to You!
