About Sea Salts

Salts are said to draw toxins out of the body, nourish the skin with minerals, remove, impurities from the skin, help relieve stress, melt away tension and soothe aching muscles and pains. Bath salts are a simple and delightful way to add valuable important trace minerals to to the bath water such as magnesium, sodium, calcium and potassium while softening the water and gently cleansing the skin.

These salts come scented in your choice of scent, when used the essential oils and trace minerals disperse and penetrate the skin, the result is a bathroom that smells heavenly, and a luxurious, skin-softening bathing experience

How the salt is made
Solar salt is produced through the natural evaporation of sea water and naturally occurring brine. Salt water is captured in shallow ponds and allowed to evaporate by means of the sun and wind. During the process, a salt bed forms on the bottom of the pond. The salt is harvested, washed, screened and packaged. The typical solar “crop” takes from one to five years to produce.

Please Note: Sea salts grains below are typical representation of grain sizes. Keep in mind that sea salts are formed by a natural crystalization process and that we cannot control mother nature's ability to determine crystal garin sizes. Our salt manufacturer does filter the grains through different size sieves, the salt is then packaged in large bins for shipment. Salts are fragile and will change in size during transport and handling, therefore expect a wide range in size with salt dust also present. Typically the salt grains on top of a master shipment is larger than the grains on the bottom of a master shipment due to it's own weight. The bottom line- use the grain sizes below only as a general rule and not the absolute size.

Available Grains:
Sea Salt Grain: (0-1mm) about twice the size of standard table salt, perfect for salts scrubs or as an additive to larger bath salts.

Medium: (1-2mm) about the size of a grain of rice (see picture) perfect consistency. Smaller than the standard bath salt, but takes color extremely uniformly and looks great packaged, in addition it dissolves very well.

History of salt
Salt is so simple and plentiful that we almost take it for granted.

In chemical terms, salt is the combination of a sodium ion with a chloride ion, making it one of the most basic molecules on earth. It's also one of the most plentiful: it has been estimated that salt deposits under the state of Kansas alone could supply the entire world's salt needs for the next 250,000 years.

But salt is also an essential element. Life itself would be impossible without it, since the human body requires salt in order to function properly. The concentration of sodium ions in the blood is directly related to the regulation of safe body fluid levels.

Salt has a long and influential role in world history. From the dawn of civilization, salt has been a key factor in Economic, religious, social and political development. In every part of the world, salt has been the subject of superstition, folklore, and warfare, it has even been used as currency.
