Adovia Exfoliating Facial Sea Salts Review

I was kindly sent a jar of exfoliating facial dead sea salts by Adovia for review.

First of all, you get a lot of product. The first thing I noticed was how heavy the jar felt- it's over 12 ounces so it's a great value. It says this is a 2-month supply but I suspect with my usage (3 times a week or so) it will last longer. Your mileage may vary. In fact the jar came sooo packed to the brim it spilled over a bit when I opened it and the first few times I scooped some out... my only issue with this product so far, and a minor one.

 I love that the only ingredient is dead sea salts and it's not tested on animals. No fragrances, dyes, etc. Since a lot of salt scrubs are already prepared with oils and other stuff, I appreciate this one isn't, because it allows me to use it "in the raw" or with whatever oils or other ingredients I know work well on my skin. The texture is much finer than most exfoliating products I've used, similar to white sugar, which I like. Coarse exfoliants just tear skin up. For the record, I have combination skin that's somewhat sensitive.

 My favorite thing about this product is how SOFT it leaves my skin feeling without leaving behind any residue. Other commercial and homemade sugar/salt scrubs I've tried have either irritated my skin, dried it out too much, or left behind a kind of greasy residue. This doesn't do any of that. My skin feels freshly washed, clean and soft enough I can often skip moisturizer. LOVE it. I think this is a great product for anyone who wants to mix up a homemade scrub while still getting the benefits of a dead sea salt (over regular table salt), or anyone who needs a natural exfoliator but has had the oil/fragrances/etc of other products irritate their skin or cause a breakout.


I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
