Dead Sea Salt

While many companies carry bath salts, few carry authentic Dead Sea Mineral Salts. Normal ocean sea salts have only approximately 3.5% mineral content, whereas those from the Dead Sea are approximately 58% mineral! As a consumer this means that the drastically higher concentrations of magnesium, potassium and calcium are much more effective at soothing the skin, drawing out toxins and impurities, easing aches and pains, not to mention the role it plays as an anti-bacterial agent in formulations.

The Dead Sea is the most saline body of water in the world with far greater concentrations of minerals than any ocean (a concentration of 32% minerals compared to other seas, holding approximately 3%). Bromides and Iodine are present in Dead Sea Salt, including other minerals in a dried form, such as Magnesium, Sodium, Calcium and Potassium. All these minerals work together as regulators of cell activity and daily functioning, relieving muscular pain and stabilizing fluid levels in the body.

Our Dead Sea Salt variety is white in color and has a consistency similar to table salt. The rough nature of the salt lends itself to skin scrubs (exfoliation) and can also be used with Epsom salts (magnesium sulphate). We recommend you try Dead Sea Salt as a body scrub or just as a relaxing additive to your baths.

Body Scrub & Soak Recipe: In a small bowl mix 6 drops Lemon, 6 drops Grapefruit Pink, 6 drops Mandarin Essential Oils and 3 teaspoon honey into 2 cups Dead Sea Salts. Hop into the bath water and wet your body (don’t make the water too hot or you will get sleepy and not refreshed). Stand up in the bath and take a handful of the salt mixture at a time and scrub down your entire body. Let the mixture fall into the tub. Soak for no more than 20 minutes as this mixture is to refresh and rejuvenate. Massage your entire body with Jojoba oil blended with your favorite essential oil combination and allow the oil to absorb into your skin.
