Guest guest Posted November 16, 2001 Report Share Posted November 16, 2001 Thank you so much for posting this recipe. I have been looking for a recipe for scrubbing salts and hardly anyone seems to know that I am talking about. I have been told that it is sometimes good to use a toner or moisturizer after you use the scrubbing salts. Do you happen to have a specific recipe that would work best?

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2001 Report Share Posted November 16, 2001 I have had such a treatment at a spa. While it was being applied I got the impression they were using sea salts and and possible a gylcerine like product. Not much besided that. Following the terrific rubbing they let me lie down for a few mintues, I presume for relaxation and moisturizing. Then a warm shower. My most important point is that directions need to be given on how to use these products. Had I not relaxed for 10 minutes prior to the shower I don't think I would have gotten such moisturized skin.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2001 Report Share Posted November 16, 2001 , I have a question. May I come every day for a month for free? I would love to own a day spa, or at least be the one that was in charge of quality control. A massage everyday? My idea of heaven.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2001 Report Share Posted November 16, 2001 Evening Everyone - Yet again stressing the point of using thorough yet concise directions.... I have had a terribly long week and treated myself to a pedicure tonight. I noticed that after they had nursed my little toes back to health/beauty they rubbed my toes with alcohol prior to being polished. What a simple little thing, yet so easily forgotten. If we promote our products to customers and they use them and follow up with nail polish the polish will not stick. Directions are essential. I made lots of notes during the pedicure tonight and will be posting notes for the nest few days. I hope that I don't beat the dead horse here, but I would be so disappointed if my customers were not pleased with my product especially if I could have avoided the disappointment. Return customers are key. We pay/invest a LOT in their initial purchase, we BANK on their future orders. Please give me a bit of patience here and lets all make sure our labeling lends us to a great customer experience. Christi in Dallas ---- Original Message ----- From: christi@...

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2001 Report Share Posted November 16, 2001 Thanks...I am so new to all of this...just trying to add where I think it may add value. By the way my pedicure was wonderful. .. I really did have a terrible week and it just seemed that I " almost went home " went I went to the little spa. Please keep in mind that the little nail shops really do great job for us. I was absolutely wiped out prior to my little visit tonight, getting a bit of rejunivation really helped.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2001 Report Share Posted November 16, 2001 Glycerin is usually the base used for a sugar scrub (not as abrasive), also do not use salt glow after shaving , it will burn! katherine www.health-beautymeet.com On Fri, 16 Nov 2001 22:36:58 -0000, wrote: > I have had such a treatment at a spa.

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2001 Report Share Posted November 16, 2001 Each of us operates a day spa...b/c we provide this service to our customers on a " to-go " basis, which is phenomenally valuable...b/c they get it at their convenience. :-) So...we could reap the benefits of our services by partaking of our product. Would you use your product? Would you use your product at its current quality? Do you use your product? Could you market your product via experience of use?? Just thoughts....

What a wonderful thing you have done in reminding us about directions. Sometimes we take too much for granted. Thanks from all of us for taking the time out of your long wk. to mention this.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2001 Report Share Posted November 18, 2001 Actually Sage, the reality of working or owning a dayspa is you work work work and very rarely get to take advantage of the services you offer. You try very hard to maitain a relaxing atmosphere for your client s no mattter how hectic and stressful things are. This can be challenging.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2001 Report Share Posted November 19, 2001 Hi, I've never made a body scrut or a lotion, so please bear with me. When you say " oil " and " liquid oil, " are you talking about say, shea butter and olive oil? Then melting everything together and letting it cool?

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 i have suggested to my customers to use the bath salts as a body scrub, but i also know you can use sugar for a body scrub. i know of the benefits of the salt (detox, etc) but is there a benefit from the sugar. & is there a difference in using white or brown sugar. charlene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 IMO Bath salts can be pretty rough white sugar is a bit too smooth and the turbinado brown sugar crystals seem to hold up better... I am not aware of any specific detox benefits of sugar, maybe you can do a combo of mineral salts with sugar??
