My salt doesn't really dissolve completely, but I really like it. My skin

felt like silk and if the salt doesn't completely dissolve, I don't mind. I

am going to try some commercial brands like maybe Origins to see what its

like.

Hi!

Why would you want the salt in a salt scrub to dissolve?

I think it's a matter of preference, really. Sugar

doesn't sting in cuts, for one thing, so it might

be better if you want to use it after shaving..

I am having trouble with the salt dissolving in

the oil/soap recipe. Anyone else tried it? How did

yours turn out?

I have had no trouble with the salt dissolving...

I mix up a 6 pound batch (really more that 6 pounds)

at a time...It stays nice and dry and ready to use...

I would think that salt would be ,if nothing else,

cheaper to use in the scrubs than sugar...

will be glad to send my receipe if you would like...

Hi Rose ,

The salt or sugar in a scrub is supposed to exfoliate, but not be absorbed by

your skin. Then the oils/butters or other ingredients will condition the

skin, while the salt/sugar is rinsed away.

Hi, Tee...more than glad to pass on my receipe for the salt scrub...

I use;

4 pound box canning salt (or espom)

3 boxes table salt

1 cup olive oil

1 cup liquid soap

1/4 cup fo scent you can use up to 1/2 cup scent depending on you)

Now I do not color this...I package in 16oz canning jars with a gold lid...

This has worked very well for me...I have not really tried the sugar scrubs

as yet...I enjoy the salt scrubs...I think that I said in my last email

that the salt was cheaper...I double checked my self and I was wrong...

I was thinking back in time when sugar cost alot more than now...

Now as to using the salt after shaving...Yes, it might burn some what,

but that is also healing...

I have never thought about grits...But I would love to try either

grits or cornmeal...I use cornmeal in my cp soap...And everyone

love it...

I will give it a try and let you know...

enjoy

frances

Not to sure on that answer. But, I can tell you that in high school (too

Many years ago to say) we used a sugar and apple cider vinegar mixture to

exfoliate the face and is worked very well. So, I don't know why that it

couldn't be used else were.

I am a huge believer in the value of salt for our skin and joints...I use

salt scrub every day; whenever I stop, my skin gets worse. And if I spend a

weekend at the beach both in the sun and the saltwater, I can clear my skin

100% and my joint pain improves tremendously...

So I'm not going to switch to sugar, even though it might sting less:-)

RE: sugar scrub recipe

In all fairness, You might want to give credit to the source of that recipe

which is from Snowdrift Farm, and is posted on their website.

Hi all,

I know someone wrote about salt and sugar scrubs and diabetes.

They only problem I know of, is the size of the actual salt and sugar granule.

With diabetes you have to be careful not to use products that have a tendency to

scratch the skin, since diabetics have a tendency to heal slower. I know, both

my sister and father have diabetes. Instead of raw (turbindo) sugar, which is

really big in size, I used brown sugar for a sugar scrubs for my sister.

I don't let my father use salt or sugar scrubs since his skin is a lot thinner

and more fragile. I use instead, oat meal scrubs. I make them dry then when he's

ready to use it, I make a paste with whatever I have in the frig, fresh milk,

yogurt, etc.

Hope this helps.

Yes in this instance Marisol is correct...Diabetics have to

becareful not to get cut, brusied or there things that consist of

healing. The heal slower and are more subseptible of gain infections

quickly (from wounds not healing properly). I currently have a

friend whom had a work related injury that became ulcerated, which

may cause him to have an amputation.

That is why diabetics are suppose to have a professional cut there

nails, and watch circulation too.
