Sea Salts for Skin
Sea salt is really great for your skin and very inexpensive for your pocketbook. Here are some great natural remedies using sea salt from Pamela Allerdice writing in her book Natural Remedies A-Z
For dry cracked skin – First, to soften skin, pour 1 cup of sea salt onto a small area in an empty bathtub. Wet it slightly. Sit on the ege of the tub and work your feet back and forth in the salt mixture. Then with your hands, massage the sea salt into your feet, making sure to get all the dry rough area – sides and tops too. Rinse with cool water and dry briskly with a towel, rubbing off the old dry skin.
Tired feet – Prepare two foot baths, one containing hot water to which 1 cup of sea salt has been added, the other with cold water containing an infusion of rosemary(put a few drops of rosemary essential oil in water or boil water and add fresh rosemary, after five minutes add to cold water footbath). Put feet in the hot water for 5 minutes, then in the cold for 1 minute, back to the hot for 5, back to the cold for 1 minute, and so on. The minerals in the sea salt help to revive and thoroughly clean the skin.
Herb and Sea Salt footbath – Take a large handful of fresh sage, thyme or lavender (you can find fresh thyme and sage at the grocery store in the produce department). You can buy a lavender plant at your local nursery or plant store. Put in a large bowl with 1 tablespoon of sea salt; cover with boiling water and allow to cool until tolerable. Soak feet for a least 15 minutes.
