Skin conditions
Salt water treats a wide variety of skin conditions. Sea water is rich in minerals like magnesium, calcium, and potassium, which can help relieve skin conditions. It absorbs the toxins in the body and on the skin, including acne-causing bacteria, and works to treat infections and encourage the healing process. Salt’s natural moisture-reducing abilities can also help to regulate the overproduction of oil that leads to clogged pores.
Eczema sufferers also find great relief using salt water. The salt draws the moisture from eczema-causing bacteria and fungi to hinder its development.
