How to properly apply a salt scrub to your skin: tips and recommendations
When using a salt scrub, you should follow certain rules:
- First, apply the scrub to a pre-cleansed and damp face, warming the skin slightly with warm water or steam. For the body, apply the sea salt scrub immediately after a shower or bath (to damp skin).
- Second, remember to apply it very gently, without intense pressure (especially for the thin skin of the face, neck, and décolleté area). Use light circular motions, gently massaging the skin for 2-3 minutes (for the body, extend this time to 7-10 minutes). It's best to use a face scrub in the evening, right before bed. After the procedure, carefully rinse the product off with warm water, then rinse your face with cold water, pat dry, and apply a light moisturizing cream.
- Under no circumstances should you "scrub" the delicate skin of the eyelids and lips; avoid the area around the eyes. It is also strictly forbidden to use a scrub on acne-prone skin or skin with various lesions to avoid injuring it or introducing infection.
- For oily or combination facial skin, a salt peel can be used weekly. However, for dry or normal skin, this procedure is recommended no more than twice a month. People with very sensitive skin shouldn't overdo salt scrubs; for them, it's sufficient to perform such a facial cleansing only once every four weeks.
