Sea salt OCEAN WATER
I've been traveling to Florida & I get fresh sea salt water from the OCEAN. I bring it home in water jugs. I boil the WATER for 30 minutes. Then, I pore it INTO a spray bottle, after it cools. I use it on my face & neck, I spray on morning & night time. So far the results ARE Amazing! I have a skin disease & this is by far the BEST Remedy, I've EVER USED for my skin condition. I will continue using OCEAN water & doing my observation. So far So good. HAPPY New Year!🍻🍾🍷🎉🎉🎉

A nice addition
I only use sea salt dissolved in water a couple times a week and sometimes follow the application with moisturizer, depending on how my skin feels, but I believe the sea salt helps with my existing pimples and also tempers upcoming acne. It's such an easy-peasy thing to try that while it hasn't vanished my acne, it was definitely worth a shot. Contrary to my expectations sea saltwater didn't sting/burn, made my face horribly red, or make my skin unbearably dry. Just one more little piece in the puzzle of controlling my acne, and I'll take all the pieces I can get.

Go for a swim!
It has improved my back! ( a bit ) Swimming on the ocean, or just taking a shower with unrefined sea salt, makes you feel relaxed

2 days in with great results
Hi! On my way back from a vacation to Florida, I thought about how the ocean made my skin clear up. (My skin has been THE WORST it has been in a really long time...and I blame it on Clinique's 3 step system for oily skin AND I blame myself bc I didn't make sure that it didn't have salicylic acid it in, which it does and which always Fs up my face!) Anyway, I've always noticed that the ocean made my acne better. Btw, I'm almost 30 and have oily skin. So I thought, what if I put salt water on my skin? I didn't know if that was a thing or not, but I googled it and found that it is and LOTS of people say it works. I'm kind of annoyed bc I've tried sooo many different products, some from Sephora which have been really expensive, when my entire life I've known that SALT WATER clears my face. The cheapest fricken thing. Ugh. So I bought Himalayan pink sea salt from thsalt grocery store (by the spices) for $5...it's about th size of a can of soda. I boiled water, put 1 cup in a mug, added 3 spoonfuls salt, mixed it until it dissolved and poured it into a spray bottl that I got from the travel section a the grocery store. I've sprayed it on my skin, let it dry, wait 5-10 minutes and then washed it off with water, 2x a day. Then put lotion on. Also- I washed my face beforehand. TWO DAYS PEOPLE AND MY SKIN HAS IMPROVED SO MUCH. I really hope that this is "it" for me!!!

By far the easiest, gentlest and most effective treatment
This is honestly a god-send! I suffer from deep hormonal acne on my chin (not super severe but has gotten progressively worse over the last four months) along with some small surface bumps. I have tried SO many methods from harsh cleansers, almond oil, sugar scrubs, antiseptic creams, tea tree oil, mud masks, honey masks, EVERYTHING and nothing has been successful. If anything, these have made it worse. I started using the sea salt method four days ago and it is already making a massive difference. I have four or five large red, painful cystic acne spots on my chin and they have now either come to a head (and been squeezed) or have gone down significantly. It doesn't dry my skin out (surprisingly!) and feels very calming and natural. The salt is an antibacterial AND drying agent, without stripping the skin so its been wonderful. My method: Fill a small mug with warm tap water - around 3/4 cup (doesn't need to be boiling! just warm enough to dissolve the salt). Add 1 level teaspoon of salt. I use iodised sea salt (the big chunky crystals of sea salt) from the supermarket. Mix it in until dissolved. Make sure face is clean and dry and hands are also clean! Dip your fingers into the salt water and massage the problem areas. Keep dipping and massaging for around 2 minutes! Then pour the rest of the water onto the problem areas and let it air dry (no not rub off with a towel!). Let the salt stay on the skin for as long as possible (a few hours or even overnight is ideal!) and then rinse with clean fresh water. The redness should go down and the skin should feel clean and dirt free. Cannot recommend this enough!

LOVE IT
It's been almost two weeks since I started using sea salt on my face and I can def see a difference. I've always had pore acne, not too bad but I can't go out without make up, also everytime I get my period at leats I get two medium size zits... These past days I've seen and felt my skin so smooth (that never happened to me before) and not oily at all (that is also one of my biggest problems). I totally recommend it!!!! Give it a try!!! PS. I use it twice a day (after taking a shower in the morning and at night after removing my make up).

One of nature's miracles
The ocean works magic on my skin when I visit about once a year. Now I massage my face with sea salt in the shower, and I feel like I am at the ocean every day. Sea salt improves my skin and my mood every time I use it. I love it :)

Pros:

Kills bacteria. cheap. Convenient, since I live at the beach. Can be used as an exfoliater but you have to be VERY gentle

Cons:

Made my face dry. Might be a little too harsh to people with sensitive skin

It's a good alternative. It's very cheap and there's no chemical side effects. If your face can handle it, do it.

Pros:

Drying (in a good way)

Cons:

Stings like a bee

Just close your eyes and do it
