That’s such an interesting observation, @pholbrook2277! It makes sense since salt scrubs can feel a bit more invigorating and cleansing, which might be great for winter dryness, while sugar scrubs are gentler and can provide that extra hydration during the summer. Thanks for sharing your experience-it's a great tip for tailoring scrubs to the seasons! 😊✨
This is a verry interesting recipe. I have never seen body scrub that is glycerin based and there is no water or hard emulsifier. I love the thought and how it looks. I will definitely try it out ❤.
Absolutely, @HenryRosales-eq1ks! You can definitely add lavender, menthol, or eucalyptus oil to your Dead Sea salt recipe for a cooling and soothing effect. Lavender brings relaxation, eucalyptus is refreshing, and menthol adds that cooling sensation. Just be sure to use skin-safe essential oils and stick to a safe dilution.
Hi @reshma2983! Great question! While polysorbate isn't absolutely necessary, it helps the oils in the scrub blend more smoothly with water, preventing the oils from sitting on top of the water when you rinse. It makes for a more even and pleasant application. However, if you don’t mind a little extra oil left on the skin or prefer a simpler recipe, you can skip it! Let me know how it turns out if you give it a try! 😊
Thank you so much for this! I am really happy I found your channel! Why do you use Poly 20 rather than 80? With oils I would have thought of Poly 80, and with fragrance (i.e. a smaller amount) I think Poly 20.
@@SummerRainDIY Thank you, I didn't know that! I just made it! Unfortunately I didn't have enough salt so I had to use sugar, and I added more glycerine at the end because my consistency was dryer than yours and I like it more fluidly like yours. I also added a tiny bit green mica and tested it on my arms which left them soft!
@@SummerRainDIY I just go the polysorbate 20. Made the scrub, but I notice that when it settle all the oil come to the top. I stir all my liquids well before adding the salt (pink Himalayan salt) Any ideas of why. thanks :)
I love dead sea salt on my skin! Thank you for this!
You’re welcome!

I found that, personally, salt scrubs work better in the winter and sugar scrub works better in the summer on my hands.

Can we add like lavender methol or eucalyptus oil? So it's going to be cool?

I would like to try this but do I really need the polysorbate?

I went with the polysorbate 20 because it is soluble in glycerin and polysorbate 80 is not.

Oh I like the idea of adding a bit of mica to it!
Hi looks lovely,where did you purchase your containers?
Here is a link to the containers that I use amzn.to/4aREG7a
Love your videos and your blog. Thank you 😊 I don't have polysorbate 80. If I use it, the oil will separate, right. Can I use 1% of zanthan gum. ❤
I’m not sure you could make this without the polysorbate.

Absolutely! You can use Epsom salt! It's a great option for adding exfoliating properties to your scrub.
