The efficacy and function of bath salt bath

Taking a bath with bath salts and gently rubbing and massaging with bath salts can have an exfoliating effect. Regular bathing with bath salts can eliminate melanin in the skin, making the skin whiter, smoother and more tender. It can also relax the body and mind and improve sleep quality.

What should I pay attention to when exfoliating with bath salts?

Bath salt exfoliation should be gentle

The particles of bath salt are not completely round, but have sharp edges. Therefore, when using bath salt for massage, you must be careful to keep your movements gentle and not use too much force, otherwise it will easily scratch the skin. Not only will it fail to exfoliate, but it will also hurt the skin.

Bath salt exfoliation should not be too frequent

Do not use bath salts to exfoliate too frequently. If you do so too frequently, the stratum corneum will become weaker and weaker, and the ability to protect the skin will gradually weaken. The skin will become sensitive and fragile, and its resistance to the external environment will also decrease, and even red blood streaks may appear.

Don't use bath salts to exfoliate wounds

If there are wounds on the skin, or acne or suppuration, do not use bath salts to exfoliate, otherwise the bath salts will easily irritate the wound, which will not only cause pain but may also cause pigmentation, acne marks or scars. If you want to exfoliate, it's best to wait until the wound on your skin has healed before using bath salts.

Don't scrub your body if you use bath salt to exfoliate

Some people have the habit of scrubbing their bodies when taking a bath, and they may use products such as bath balls or bath brushes. However, if you have already used bath salts to exfoliate, you should not scrub your body again. Because when you scrub your body with bath tools, it has the effect of exfoliating. If you use scrubbing and bath salts together, it will cause excessive exfoliation, which will cause great damage to the skin.
