DIY Salt Spa DAY!!!!!

Here are some great salt spa recipes and ideas so you can have a SEA SALT SPA DAY! Sea Salt is great for your skin! if you have ever swam in the ocean or in a salt water pool you can sea that when you get out your skin feels soft and glows! So grab your girl friends and have a DIY (do it yourself) spa day!
Salt Pore Opener: Open your pores so that all your masks and treatments really have an effect right away! Add 1/2 to 1 cup of Sea Salt to a pan of steaming water. Turn off stove and lean your face over the steaming pot to open your pores! Too hot?! Simply move your face away and wait for it to cool down some.

Salt Honey Scrub: This scrub will deep cleanse your skin, making it clear and clean! Put 1 to 2 teaspoons of sea salt on a plate or bowl. Then add 2 to 2 1/2 teaspoons of honey or agave nectar. Want to make larger amounts? Apply to damp skin and wait ten minutes before washing off with cold water. 

Salt Cloth: If you have sensitive skin, you might not like the salt honey scrub, so you may do this instead! Heat a bowl  with warm water and 1/2 cup of sea salt, then dip the washcloth into the bowl. Set the warm washcloth over your face for up to 10 minutes with eyes closed. (you might need to cut a hole in the washcloth so that you can breathe easily. 

Salt Bath: Need to clean your entire body?! Then use this! Fill your tub up with warm water, then add 1 to 2 cups of sea salt to the tub before stepping in to soak. 

IMPORTANT: Salt can dry out your skin if used to much!!! Definitely use a good moisturizer after using any of these products! If you have sensitive skin i do not recommend you using all these ideas on one day, it may leave to red, irritated skin.
