DESCRIPTION

Fine grain salt derived from the salt waters of the Dead Sea is widely used throughout the cosmetic, personal-care, food, and beverage industries. Once the salt is evaporated from the Dead Sea, the sodium chloride is concentrated and converts into a solid through the process of chemical precipitation. Further concentration of sodium chloride during this process yields bath salt derived from the Dead Sea, resulting in a fine granular product typically 1 mm in particle size, safe for topical use. Manufacturers incorporate fine dead sea salt into skincare formulations intended to exfoliate, revitalize, hydrate, and detoxify the skin. Popular consumer products that take advantage of dead sea salt and the benefits of its mineral composition include body scrubs, bath bombs, anti-acne creams, and body lotions. In food and beverage manufacturing, dead sea salt is incorporated into culinary dishes, packaged goods, and nutritional supplements, to name a few.
