Dead Sea Mud Mask - how to use for your beauty.

The Dead Sea is the most salted body of water in the world. Mud from the Dead Sea has a high content of salts and minerals that are claimed to be essential for the body, and it is widely used in SPA-salons.

The Dead Sea is different from all other natural water on Earth because it's incredibly salty, with a saline level between 28 and 35 percent. By comparison, the world's saltiest oceans are only 3 to 6 percent. There is no outlet for the water except for evaporation, so the salt and minerals left behind collect on the shores and the bottom of the Dead Sea.

The black mud - Dead Sea Mud - harvested from Dead Sea is the sediment washed down from surrounding mountains and deposited on the bottom of salt sea.

Dead Sea mud, alone or in combination with other ingredients, is believed to have benefits for deep cleansing and stimulation of the skin. Minerals extracted from Dead Sea water such as calcium, magnesium and potassium, are said to improve the metabolism, stimulate circulation and aid in the natural repair of cells.

Medical studies have shown that Dead Sea Minerals are effective in treating psoriasis, acne, rheumatism and eczema. Dead Sea minerals are known to cure skin disorders through strengthening the skin tissues, maintaining the chemical balance of the skin, stimulating blood circulation and eliminating toxins from the skin. 

 

HOW to USE Dead Sea Mud for facial mask:

- This mask has thick consistency, like paste, so, if you prefer thinner mask, you need to adjust consistency by additional water (spring, distilled, but not tap water).

If you have dry or sensitive skin - add milk or oil (almond oil, olive oil, avocado oil). If you have oily skin - you can add yogurt or sour cream. Just add few drops at once until you like consistency of the mask.  

- Apply the Dead Sea Mud Mask to your clean face and leave it on the skin until the mud is dry. For sensitive skin leave mask on for 3-5 minutes and rinse well.

-  Rinse it off well, then follow it up with a moisturizer. 

Skin care using a Dead Sea Mud Facial Mask is suitable for all skin types, it's especially effective for imbalancing skin: excessive fatty secretions or extrimaly dryness. 

HOW OFTEN: Twice a week for normal and oily skin, once a week for dry and sensitive skin.

For sensitive skin apply small amount of the mask on an area of skin inside the elbow, leave on for 10 minutes. If no skin irritation or allergic reaction occurs.
