I have actually noticed a huge improvement in the quality of my skin since using the salt method.

I agree that your skin will get dry but it's not the dry "winter skin" you are probably thinking of.

Your skin actually feels healthy and smooth.

I do use a moisturizer on my legs, arms and any other part that isn't infected with acne.

Because I did notice my hands and legs were excessively dry - but not at all to the point where they were flaky.

 

Don't forge - you are drying up the excessive oil that is clogging your pores. This is a good thing!

 

yeah, my problem though with all the acne meds that i'm using right now is that my skin really does dry up to the point where it hurts to smile.. my face actually starts to crack unless i put moisturizer on it. so, is the SA based moisturizer bad for your acne, or what?

alright well thank you, i think i'll start doing that, and post about my progress either in this thread or one of those regimen log threads

I started the sea salt bath regimen today because I want in on summer.

I bought 2 bags of sea salt from the grocery store.

$3.99 for 4 pounds.

I took a water bottle (16oz.) and filled it twice with salt and put it in my hot bath water. It was actually too hot I had to put a little cold in there. The salt dissolved.

I will do this for 3 days in a row and post pics of each day to see if there's improvement. I just feel really hot right now because it was like sitting in a really hot spa. Skin doesn't feel extraordinarily soft.

I think my bacne is caused primarily from driving hours a day and also sitting at a computer with my back against the chair all day/night. Anyways here's my back.

I will report back in tomorrow. Signing off.

Didn't take this picture until about an hour after I took a shower. The previous was about 5 minutes after showering. Probably explains why you can see more nastiness on the first one.

it actually does look a little better, but that could just be different lighting if you're using a digital camera because it adjusts differently to some pictures

keep it up though, im curious to see how well it works

also, do you think you could resize the images to be a little bit smaller?

Hey guys. I too have realized that the beach and sun clears me up majorly and I have pretty bad body acne. My question is WHERE do I find this sea salt? I have looked at several places including Superfresh, Giant, CVS, and Rite Aid and all I see is epsom salts and your normal table salt. What stores specifically can I find this stuff? Thanks in advance

PS. Id rather not order it online because i wanna start this asap

from what ive heard so far, epsom salts work just fine. i just went to the local chain grocery store, Meijer's, to get mine. Iodized Sea Salt, it says. try checking the baking goods aisle

Hmm. I wouldn't. In aquariums you avoid Iodized sea salt- it has bad effects on the fish. Bad effects on fish=not good for me, at least in my slightly odd line of thinking.

[Edited link out]

As for ordering online, I found a pretty good deal on bulk at this place.

Thanks for the quick replies. But yea, I've tried epsom salts a while back and it didn't do much for me except make me itch. If you guys could just list the stores that you got this stuff it would be greatly appreciated because I have looked at sooo many places with no success. Thanks a lot.

Wow thanks for the link, that is really cheap. If I can't find this stuff in stores by the end of this weekend I may go for that.

really? anyone else have any other say on this? i dont wanna end up poisoning myself or something.

hmm...not sure if it's that much better. I think the ones that are out needs to heal first.

ExModel, can you ask your girlfriend if sea salt (and the sea salt combination) is bad for the hair if you do it everyday? What if you have highlights?

Also, can someone please advice me a good synthetic brush for exfoliation that would be easy to use on the back?

Thanks,

I still cannot find this sea salt for the life of me lol. I think I may have to just order this stuff online. What is the best one to order?

aaand im still wondering if Iodized Sea Salt would be bad for you...

I just ordered this one [Edited link out]

Thanks for the link

I thought $12 was cheap and then I saw the $33 shipping charge lol

skipped saturday. Did it today

I buy 10 kg (22 lbs) for 10 CDN dollars (8 USD) from my natural products store. Try to look for natural product stores in your cities, I'm sure they can order some. This way you won't have to pay the shipping.

Which Canadian store did you go to? I live in B.C. and have no idea where I can to get cheap Sea Salt.

Hey apple, looks alot less red, just letting u know i appreicaite the pictures and all, i want 2 heal b4 summer as well and i'm considering the sea salt based off of your progress, so please keep posting . peace

Hey, thanks for the updates guys. Hopefully you guys clear up successfully.

But, I think Im gonna start doing this but I was wondering if I should do it even tho Im taking the minocycline pill. Think it would do anythign bad?

Well, I've been lurking in these forums for a while now just getting ideas and never really replying to anything, but I really like this method! I don't have a bathtub in my apartment I'm in now but in 3 weeks I'm moving into a friend's basement and I'll have a tub then, so I'm going to go ahead and order the sea salt. I'm excited to see how it works! I know this question was already asked, but I didn't really see a definite answer...do I wait for the salt to dissolve before I get in? Also, I'm looking on drugstore.com (I get a 10% discount so I'd prefer to order from them) but I'm not sure which one to get..any suggestions? Thanks for the help!
