Four Fantastic Recipes To Get You Started
The possibilities are endless when it comes to creating your own salt scrubs. The most important thing is to use natural, quality ingredients, including a very high-quality salt to ensure purity and achieve the best results. While regular salt is known to dry out the skin, Dead Sea salt contains a higher percentage of natural minerals, including magnesium, calcium, and potassium, which actively retain and nourish skin’s natural moisture.
Blood Orange and Vanilla Scrub
1 cup Dead Sea salt
1/2 cup olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons dried orange zest
1/2 teaspoon blood orange essential oil
1 vanilla bean
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the Dead Sea salt, olive oil, orange zest and essential oil. With a sharp paring knife, split the vanilla bean down the center and scrape the contents into the bowl. Next, finely chop the bean pod and add it to the mix. Combine well then transfer to your chosen container.
Skin Detox Soothing Skin Scrub
1 cup Dead Sea salt
1/2 cup olive oil or liquid coconut oil

1 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (adjust to preference)
