Sea Salt Can Be Used to Exfoliate Skin at Home

Believe it or not, sea salt has and is being used by Ford models like Katie (in the video) to exfoliate their skin. Katie admits to swimming in the Pacific to keep her skin healthy. Yes, we all know how sea water can sting on the skin especially if the sun hits it, but a little bit of sea salt may be all you need to get that exfoliating fix for your face and body skin.

If you can't afford to go to a beach, you can just buy sea salt. Ask your local grocery is they have some. This salt comes directly from the sea and is coarse. You really shouldn't use the salt directly on your skin. You have to dissolve the granules in water first to reduce their size and make them gentler for use on skin.

While taking a bath you can soak in this sea salt water and brush the fine salt on your skin. You can avoid getting the salty water in your eyes. You don't have to soak for too long, because your skin may go wrinkly like it's been in the water for too long. Listen to what model Katie has to say.

Grocery-shelf Facial Scrub Products Can Actually Produce Excellent Results to Your Skin

Grocery-shelf skin scrubs are the next-best-thing when it comes to pampering your skin with facials and mild dermabrasion treatments in spas. Yes, it's no longer like the old days when there's just the skin clinic to go to in order for you to take care of your skin and give it just the right glow to your satisfaction. It's too bad that spa treatments like these can still be heavy on the pocket (or does it make it lighter?).

Fortunately for you who like to give their skin a treat that there are now good products that you can just pick up from the grocery shelf to use on your own at home. The technology in maximizing the effects of these products has now matured to such a level that we can now benefit from spa-like results from the comfort of our own home. Best of all is that these products are much cheaper than if you have to go to a facial spa.

No one can really tell you which products to buy, but essentially, if you're not prone to contact allergies or if the choices are hypoallergenic, then it should be safe to use most of what's out there. But it pays to use brands that have a solid research and development history. Recommended products for daily use are the scrubs and mud packs that make your skin feel good and smoother by diminishing roughness and imperfections like discolorations, growths, and even pimples.

Fruit-based products are also good, but extracts like those from papaya can sometimes be too harsh for sensitive skin. Papaya extracts, while containing acids that can make your skin fresh by removing surface skin can be uncomfortable and may result in itchy red patches if used too often. If you choose to use such products, you should do so sparingly. You can see for yourself how they work when your skin turns reddish-raw and sensitive. Because of these effects, you should avoid getting too much of them around your eyes and corners of your mouth.

One product that gives excellent results for the typical person is the Nu Skin facial scrub. The Nu Skin facial scrub (left) allows regular users to get a healthy, ruddy facial skin yet is mild enough and refreshing for frequent use. It doesn't damage skin and helps with sun-exposed problem areas that tend to become course due to environmental exposure. It's also perfect for men who wish to keep a healthy-looking face without the hassles.

Overall, regular use of these grocery shelf face-scrubbing and skin exfoliating products will definitely make a difference in your skin without the hassles and make your skin look and feel like a celebrity's.
