How do I use this salt scrub correctly, and how often should I exfoliate?

Use the scrub in the shower or bath on wet, warmed skin — this matters with a salt-based product, because the sorbet texture is designed to soften and melt as it meets moisture, which makes the crystals feel gentler than they would on dry skin.

1. Let warm water run over your body for a minute or two so the skin softens.
2. Take a small amount and massage it over damp skin in light circular motions, without pressing hard — the Himalayan salt crystals do the mechanical work, so extra pressure only adds irritation, not better results.
3. Give a little more attention to areas that tend to stay rough, such as elbows, knees, heels and legs.
4. Rinse thoroughly until no salt residue remains, pat the skin dry and follow with a body lotion or oil to lock in the smoothing effect.

As for frequency, once or twice a week is enough for most people. Physical exfoliation removes built-up dead cells from the top layer of skin, and doing it more often than the skin can comfortably tolerate tends to cause tightness or redness rather than extra smoothness. If your skin leans dry, start with once a week and see how it responds. Keep it away from the eye area, and avoid broken, irritated or freshly sun-exposed skin.
