NancyJo Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 I am looking at a recipe for a body polish and it calls for sea salt. Is it okay to use table salt as a sub?I know in something like a bath there are therapeutic properties in sea salt but seeing that body polish is basically a wash off product, can the table salt be used for exfoliating purposes?

Carrie Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Try it. You'll never know if you like it until you try it.If you don't like it, you may try the grocery, I get fine sea salt at the grocery store in the bulk food aisle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 table salt would probably work, but the bigger grains will give more scrubbie action and won't dissolve quickly, which epson salts do... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyJo Posted July 22, 2006 Author Share Posted July 22, 2006 Ok, that makes sense. It is just that I have one of the monster boxes of table salt from Sam's Club and thought I would use that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
