The restorative properties of the Dead Sea have been well documented since biblical times. King David and Herod the Great are among the millions of visitors to have taken its waters and relaxed in the hot springs around the shore, making it one of the world’s first health spas.
In recent years scientists have confirmed what everyone who has ever bathed in the Dead Sea know - skin loves mineral-rich Dead Sea water and mud.
Studies by the University of Jerusalem show that Dead Sea mineral salts stimulate circulation and encourage skin to renew itself.
A paper published by the International Journal of Cosmetic Science in 1997 demonstrated that the hygroscopic characteristics of Dead Sea mineral salts enhances the skin's intracellular water capacity. Dead Sea minerals aid tissues to more easily absorb moisture, which helps to smooth the skin.
