Dead Sea mud Scrub Foot/Hand Mask

If your feet are feeling a touch tough after a summer of cavorting about in sandals (or less), this seaside scented foot scrub is just the thing. If you’re in a hurry you can scrub and go, or you can apply it as a mask for a bit of an at-home pedicure.

hempseed  and sea mud add a distinctly scrubby element, and some citric acid brings some acidity to the mix that’ll help soften your callouses if you decide to apply the scrub as a mask and let it sit for a while.

The final scrub looks a bit like dirt and smells like the seaside. Break it out for an at-home spa day with some friends and it’ll be a sure hit 🙂

The Dead Sea is a salt water lake in the Middle East, bordered by Israel and the West Bank to the west, and Jordan to the East. The geographical features of the Dead Sea — including the fact that the lake is at the lowest sea level of any body of water on earth and surrounded by mountains — makes the surrounding silt and mud rich with a unique combination of minerals like magnesium, sodium, and potassium.

People use Dead Sea mud to treat health conditions ranging from psoriasis to back pain. A great deal of research backs up claims that Dead Sea mud can relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and more.
