Dead Sea Mud

Dead Sea Mud In Cold Processed Soap

Dead Sea Mud used in cold processed soaps



You can safely add up to 1 Tablespoon of Dead Sea Mud to your favorite cold process soap formula either in the oil phase or at light trace. (I like to add the Dead Sea Mud to the oil phase which gives the mud a chance to mingle with the various oils.)

 

 

Dead Sea Mud In Facial MasquesDead Sea Mud masques (masks)


For a truly wonderful facial masque apply Dead Sea Mud (straight from the container) in a circular motion to your face. Allow to dry for up to 20 minutes and rinse off, then apply your favorite moisturizer. Dead Sea Mud is full of nutrients and minerals and is great all by itself, but you can also add other "goodies" to create specialty masques.

 

Dead Sea Mud and Its Benefits
by Dr. Tamara Hartley Hunt of EczemX.com

The Dead Sea has been legendary for thousands of years and has much biblical and historical significance. The fact that it's the lowest point on the face of the earth - 400 meters below sea level - and the abundance of health enhancing minerals in the water makes the Dead Sea a famous destination not only today, but throughout history. There are qualified reports that King David, Jesus, King Herod and Cleopatra were linked to using the benefits of the Dead Sea. The beautifying abilities of the minerals present in the Dead Sea encourage many people to travel to the sea to find out that it is indeed true. Dead Sea mud does enhance skin beauty, skin youth as well as helping numerous skin and joint ailments, including psoriasis, arthritis, eczema and acne.

Most have heard at least something about Dead Sea mud and how good it is for the health of the skin. So what exactly makes something so simple as “mud” be so incredibly beneficial? The answer consists of several reasons, which all combine to make Dead Sea mud one of the healthiest things you can use for your skin.

There are many reasons why so many people descend on the small Dead Sea, based in Jordan and Israel, every year. Here are just a few of them:

  • Dead Sea mud is proven to provide effective relief for skin disorders such as psoriasis, eczema, acne and skin aging.
  • Dead Sea mud moisturizes your skin and helps natural skin hydration
  • Fine Dead Sea mud grains gently exfoliates dead skin cells to reveal more youthful, healthier skin layer
  • Dead Sea mud removes dirt particles, impurities and toxins from the skin.
  • Dead Sea mud improves blood circulation and natural skin generation.

Dead Sea mud has many amazing health properties, and in addition to the ones listed above also helps treat and relieve other health ailments. These ailments include arthritis, muscle stiffness and aches, rheumatism, joint inflammation and itchy, dry skin.

Most ask how something as simple as natural Dead Sea mud can be so effective in helping to benefit the body and the skin. The answer lies in what can’t be seen by the naked eye, which is the high concentration of natural salts and minerals that are present in the mud. Because the Dead Sea is not connected to any other body of water, it evaporates a bit each year. The salts and minerals present in high amounts in the Dead Sea get absorbed into the mud in even higher concentrations as evaporation occurs. This mud is then extracted and purified; leaving behind a high concentration of all of the health giving salts, minerals and the benefits they possess. Because the minerals are naturally formed, and are molecularly constructed exactly as the minerals in the human body, they are easily absorbed and utilized by the body. Using Dead Sea mud allows you to create products (such as Dead Sea soap or Dead Sea mud masks) that feed the skin with these essential minerals. Minerals such as potassium, magnesium, sodium, bromine and calcium are all needed by the skin to help maintain the right moisture levels and hydration; both of which lessen the skin’s appearance of aging. Dead Sea minerals will allow you to create products that are clinically proven to relieve such skin ailments as psoriasis, acne, eczema and other problems such as joint inflammation, arthritis and skin blemishes.

Another very powerful effect of using Dead Sea mud is the fact that it has the ability to pull toxins from the body and cells of the skin. This leaves the skin completely clean, pure and open to absorbing the benefits of the minerals. The fine grains of the mud also work as a non-abrasive exfoliate; removing old cells from the surface of the skin and encouraging skin rejuvenation. Because of the joined effects of exfoliation, cleansing and providing essential minerals, Dead Sea mud is capable of improving a variety of health ailments and keeps the skin looking youthful and healthy.
