Sea Salt

I suffer from moderate acne, on my forehead and right cheek. One evening I ran out of bicarbonate of soda which I normally use for exfoliating, I had Dead Sea Salts lying around so decided to wash my face with them for some reason, I took a small amount of salts and put them on my wet face in circular motion, I could feel the salts melting and my face felt incredibly smooth. I then pat dried my face and used Finacea gel then went to bed.(I've been using finacea gel for 2 months, no results but no break outs either) The next day when I woke up the pimples on my right side had reduced(I'm not even exaggerating) and my skin was glowing too (like it used to when I drank 4 litres of water a day). I continued using the salts twice a day, morning and evening. By day 3 the gravel on my forehead was COMPLETELY gone, I couldn't believe it. I've been using this for under a month and my acne is gone I have nothing on my face apart from acne scars unfortunately... but overall I am very pleased with the results, they have worked very well for me.

Let me start with the fact that I used mediterranian sea salt. I soaked a lot in water, added a few drips of tea tree oil in it (about 6), and put it in a spray bottle. Right when I get out of the shower AFTER SHOWERING WITH NATURAL BLACK SOAP I put on my clothes (don't dry off with a towel, it leaves lent on u). I spray this all over my back and leave it on till my next shower in the morning. I could promise u that in a freakin week my back was acne free. I was able to enjoy being in a bikini. After u get the results u want u can stop using it. Just make sure to shower daily and with good soap. Maybe a few bumps will come back when u stop; just do it again and in a day or two they're gone again. Please try this if you've tried everything for your body acne.

I live in a small coastal town, with 5 beaches in it, so obviously i go swimming in the sea often. Last year during summer (our Australian summer) i realized my skin was looking quite better. Then when we started heading into winter it got a bit worse again. The only thing that had changed was I had stopped going to the beach. So I decided to buy some salt! About 2-3 times a week I will put about a teaspoon of salt into 100mls of warm water. Taking a make up remover pad I'll soak it in the salt water, and gently go over my face for about a minute. I'll leave it on for about 5 minutes, rinse of with cool water, and then moisturise. Seeing as it is so cheap and natural I think it's definitely something worth trying!

After YEARS of bouncing around with all sorts of store bought acne treatments, and seeing absolutely no improvement, I finally decided to switch to a more natural skin routine. I've always noticed that my skin looks so much clearer after a dip in the ocean, so sea salt was one of the first things I tried... and I'm SO glad I gave it a shot. I've been using it for just over a year, and my acne is GONE. First, I just use Cetaphil for oily skin to get off most of my makeup and cleanse my skin. Then if I'm short on time, I'll just spritz my face with some sea salt dissolved in water, and leave it. If have more time, I take a bit of sea salt with just a TINY bit of water mixed in (just enough to make it kind of pasty looking) and exfoliate my face with it. I like to leave it on for a few minutes as well. It burns a bit, but not for long, because THEN I do a yogurt face mask. Just plain, full fat organic yogurt/greek yogurt. It feels SOO good, and softens my skin so much. It relieves all the redness and irritation that the salt causes, and doesn't clog my pores. Again, this has been my routine for a little over a year, and I might see one zit a month. I swear, natural is the way to go if you're fighting acne!

I decided to buy a jar of Dead Sea Salt with naturals oils because I always heard Dead Sea Salt was better than regular salt because of the low amount of sodium chloride and because of its therapeutic properties. Since it was cheap I figured there wasn't much of a loss. When I first used it, it was very rough. It was rougher than any other exfoliating scrub I've ever used. However, after washing my face, my face felt extremely soft due to the natural oils (olive, kernel, jojoba, and sweet almond oil). The oils may not be good for those with already oily skin, but I have dry acne prone skin so oils are essential for my skin. I've used countless OTC acne washes, scrubs, and lotions, but nothing has ever worked this well. I HIGHLY recommend sea salt to anyone since its really cheap. If you can, try to get Dead Sea Salt that's made in Israel. Which ever one you get they're all cheaper and natural alternatives compared to most acne products.

I've been using this method more than a week now and it's amazing! It almost cleared my skin and it gets better every day. You will see the result after 1-2 days. It doesn't hurt to try and you probably already have it in your house. So what i do is i dilute in water as much sea salt i can and using a cotton pad i apply it all over my face after cleansing. I wait about 30-40 minutes and rinse it off. And don't forget to apply moisturizer after that. You should cleanse your face two times a day: in the morning and before bed (just in case you didn't know). Good luck :)

I read other reviews on here about sea salt so I decided to try it. My fifteen year old daughter has been having some breakouts. We tried this on her face and it really helped to dry up her acne. We mixed up some Sealyham with warm water and applied it to her face like a toner. We left it on the first night for 10 min. We have applied it every night for about a week and have gradually increased the time we leave it on. Shen left it on last night for about 45 min. It has really helped with her acne. Her skin looks much better. Just make sure to use sea salt not table salt

Cheap, easy, and use honey after washing face with saltwater, and works 2x's better!!

I went to the beach and noticed my face was looking great, so a couple of days later I took a trip to the pier and filled a bottle with sea water! Sounds a little odd but I soaked my face with a face cloth full of it and focussed more on the newer pimples with cotton balls. If it gets too dry, moisturise it whenever you need but this is the only thing that's EVER worked for me. Such a great find.

I never write reviews on anything normally but since the sea salt has been so effective I had to for this. I have had acne since 16. Since then I cannot remember a day when my face was completely free of blemishes. About a year ago I went to the beach on a regular basis and noticed my face started to clear, after a while I put two and two together. I now wash my face at night with a salicylic acid acne wash and then spray a sea salt and water mixture and after about fifteen or twenty min put moisturizer on. At first I saw minor improvement and after a month my whole face was clear, no pimples, not a single one. I have tried everything (including proactive which did not help at all) and this routine has been the ONLY one that has worked. I would highly recommend trying it.
