Sea Salt: Estheticians emphasize the cleansing properties of a sea salt bath to clean pores and to detoxify the body. It is now known that sea salt therapy is an effective treatment that assists in the rejuvenation of the cells and also induces a healthy exchange of minerals and toxins between the blood and the water.
Epsom Salt: Traditionally, it is also used to prepare foot baths, intended to soothe sore feet. The reason for the inclusion of the salt is partially cosmetic: the increase in ionic strength prevents some of the temporary skin wrinkling ("pruning") which is caused by prolonged immersion of extremities in pure water. However, magnesium sulfate can also be absorbed into the skin, reducing inflammation.
Vitamin E: The main function of Vitamin E in humans appears to be that of an antioxidant. |
