Dead Sea Products
There is a plethora of skin care and beauty products
with minerals from the Dead Sea on the market and we will try to cover
all of them here as well as explain the difference and benefits between
them. Most products from the Dead Sea fall into the skin care and
therapeutic skin categories although there are also a few products
for the the hair. The most famous products are the Dead Sea bath salts
and pure Dead Sea mud although facial and body cream as well as soaps
are also quickly gaining in popularity. There is such a wide variety
of health and skin benefits with these products that it's hard to
bunch them all together into a general "Dead Sea products"
category. The reason why these cosmetics are so beneficial for the
skin is the fact that they contain a very high concentration of minerals
extracted from the salt of the legendary sea. Not only is the salt
content of the sea the highest of any body of water in the world,
it is also not regular salt. Whereas regular sea salt contains 90%
sodium - Dead Sea salts
contain only about 10% sodium and the rest is made
up of minerals which are essential to skin beauty and health. When
these mineral are extracted and infused into skin care products there
are several benefits that become apparent.
The main benefit is the fact that these minerals are
actually essential for the skin to function properly and rebuild itself
naturally as well as maintain an natural balance of moisture. As minerals
get depleted skin can become dull, very dry and wrinkle and acne prone.
By replenishing the minerals depleted from skin Dead Sea products
allow the skin to stay naturally hydrated, rebuild itself quicker
and take on a healthy and attractive appearance. The rich concentration
of minerals is also another reason why skin care products from the
sea are so effective at treating Psoriasis and Eczema.

made in Israel on the shores of the Dead Sea so always make sure you
