Therefore, our sea salt is not refined – refined with zero additives. High quality sea salts contain many trace elements. Since the human body has the same concentration of minerals and nutrients as sea water, it is no wonder that sea salt works naturally to help balance, protect and restore the skin.
Sea salt helps to deeply cleanse the pores, balance the production of oil and sebum and reduce bacteria that can cause acne. Since sea salt can absorb toxins from the skin, it is a natural cleanser and detoxifier. It also helps to increase circulation, has antiseptic properties and soothes and softens irritated skin.
Sea salt is an excellent exfoliator as long as the right grain size is used on the right part of the body. The texture of the sea salt should be soft to the touch, as you want to gently remove dead skin cells and not scratch the skin.
The ancient Greeks and Romans used warm seawater as a relaxing therapy, known to this day as thalassotherapy.
