Himalayan and Lilac Body Scrub

Salt is typically coarser than sugar and slower do dissolve, which makes this salt-based scrub great for heavy-duty exfoliation.

Why salt?

Himalayan salt is our favorite sea salt to keep around because it's so rich in minerals and trace elements, like calcium, magnesium, and iron. When consumed it can help to eliminate toxins, balance electrolyte and pH levels, strengthen bones, and support circulation to name a few things. In this scrub you're nourishing your skin with all of the minerals and trace elements of the salt.
