Use as Medicine
Himalayan salt helps maintain skin’s natural oil balance, cleaning and drawing out impurities while warm water opens your pores to absorb the benefits. This amazing ingredient is also known to improve moisture, elasticity and softness, and may even reduce the appearance of fine lines and cellulite.
Himalayan Salt Cleansing Bar allows salt to be stored in the upper callous layer of the skin and binds water. This maintains the natural, protective film of the skin and the skin does not dry out. This is the reason why crystal bath salt bars are good for dry skin as well. The toxins are released into the bathwater through osmosis while the minerals from the crystal salt are absorbed through the skin. This reduces the acidity in our body and balances the PH factor of our skin.
The application of salt may initially worsen skin condition (acne, inflammations, etc.), which is a sign of the elimination of toxins. Don’t worry though, just let your skin regenerate. Avoid using the salt soap directly on your skin if you have skin diseases (eczema, allergy, fungal infections, etc.) as the salt may scratch the skin. It is better to apply the salt by hand over the moistened skin.
Soap Qualities
Salt soaps have so many wonderful qualities. This huge 7oz bar is a wonderful luxurious soap. Salt soaps may be crumbly before first use and will smooth out once exposed to water and used. They have a rustic cut look. Store all natural soaps in a well draining soap dish. Please note, Himalayan salt crystals are very abrasive, for a milder scrub, please use this soap with a washcloth or loofah. The large crystals on the top should not be rubbed directly on your skin.
