Sea Salt

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.

I use this as a toner after using my dove bar every two days. It's definitely helped my spots and leaves my skin feeling clean. However this is drying so I can only use it every second day. I fill a glass full with very hot water and pour some sea salt from marks and spencer ( a supermarket ) and wait until i have finished cleansing.Then I simply pour some cold water in the glass and pour it over my face. I rub it in and wash off with cold water. Wouldn't reccomend for very dry skin unless you have a good moisturiser but anyone else should try it

it really helps for my skin i mix it sea salt with water and apply on my face and my back in the morning everyday and i can see the result. its really good

I had a moderate acne on my back and my face , I was already using benzoyl peroxide which worked great on the pimples but it wouldn't do much for the black heads tgat eventually would turn into pimples .so I've read on the Internet about this simple face mask made of sea salt (I've been using table salt without noticing any difference ) and lemon ,scrub in your face and let it dry for a couple of minutes ,it worked great for me and I can clearly see a difference after a couple of times using it.definetly recommend

I mix around a table spoon of organic sea salt with about half a cup of filtered water. I use it after i wash my face twice a day. It helps keeps my oily skin matt throughout the day and gives my skin a clean feeling. When i get a cyst, i use a more concentrated amount if sea salt on the affected area, and it quickly clears up. The only problem would be that it can be drying but if you put lotion on after, you're good to go!

I'm a 30-year-old female who is very prone to cystic acne. My acne was controlled for about 2 years with Aldactone, but I had to switch meds due to side effects and because 2 years is a long time. Anyway, been on different types of antibiotics ever since. None of them have helped much and now My cystic acne returned in full force. I use Aczone everyday to help prevent the, or shrink them, but it doesn't do much, so in my desperation, I read that a good homemade exfoliant is to mix 1/2 tablespoon of extra virgin oil with 1 full tablespoon of sea salt. Do this once a week to clean and hydrate skin. Well, the first time i did it, the size of my pimple shrunk big time the next day. It takes time to completely disappear cysts, but what Aczone hasn't done for me, this homemade exfoliant did. It also dries existing pimples and in combination with the extra virgin oil, it makes your skin look hydrated and if you have oily skin like mine, it does help control de oil. It feels weird when you rinse it off because you feel that the oil is hard to take off, but don't try to take it all off. Just rinse like you normally would and then let it dry or pat dry with a clean towel, then use toner, you don't need to moisturize, but I do use a turmeric moisturizer from Passport to Organic to help inflammation and then I apply Epiduo gel. In all honesty, I find that sea salt helps way more than Epiduo gel and Aczone together. I might start exfoliating 2 times a week, just to help the cysts shrink faster. I don't want to overdo it either. You learn to read your face to see how much you can tolerate. Also, when you exfoliate, don't rub your face hard; you don't want to irritate your skin either. Be gentle. I take my make up off prior to exfoliating.

i use in conjunction with oxy's seaweed facial cleanser and it has been rele effective. i still dont have amazing model-like skin but i blame that on my lifestyle of drinking and smoking too much. simply by some fine sea salt. use the sea salt and some water as a scrub every other day and put three heaped tbl spns in with a toner so it is like sea water. using cotton wool rele try and soak troublesome areas before bed. a good on the spot treatment is handy i use the max strength oxy stuff.

definitely use it as a toner after washing face. Get a small container to keep your solution in. Sea salt + Apple Cider Vinegar + Clean drinking Water OR green tea. They are all amazing for your skin so why not combine them all? Depending on how sensitive your skin is, you're gonna want to have a either not so strong solution or moderate. I have extremely oily skin like eeeeeeexxxxtreeemmeee its insane and nothing would work for me until this. It definitely keeps my face matted for a good amount of hours. I also use a gel moisturizer since i know gel anything is better for oily skin. Im just glad i came across this solution cus nothing would control my excessive oily skin until this! I really hope this works for everyone cus i know how much of a pain and embarrassment it is to have a super oily face. And give it sometime for it to work. I can't say it will get rid of your blemishes cus i use the Acne.org products to cleanse my face but i do know it does help keep my face matted

I really like using sea salt. I use Adovia Dead Sea Salt in two different ways. The first way: I boil water to steam my face and then I put the sea salt in the bowl. It's like being at the beach. It makes my skin soft and less oily. About 5 times a week I mix a tsp. of sea salt with my cleanser and wash my face that way. I have incredible results that way and if you have sensitive skin mixing the two together is a lot less abrasive than applying the sea salt directly to your skin. Small warning: be super careful on active pimples. Can be painful if you're using the salt without a cleanser mixed with it.
