HOW IS DEAD SEA MUD EXTRACTED?
The therapeutic mud is kept in natural mineral water in order to allow it to mature further. Generally, the maturation process involves the mud's oxidation and reduction over the course of one year. This process may vary slightly for each mud.
The hues of harvested Organic Dead Sea Mud range between various shades of grey, which are dependent on the weather and season of harvest; the summer months yield a light gray mud and the winter months yield a dark gray mud.
Its characteristic scent is naturally sharp due to a rich Sulfur content. The finished product is free from sand and grit, resulting in a soft, smooth, fine, and viscous clay-like paste. The pH of Dead Sea Mineral Mud is between 7.5 and 8.9.
A layer of Dead Sea Mineral Mud on the skin not only promotes softness but also prevents the body from losing moisture, and in turn increases internal moisture levels. This results in an upsurge of blood flow and energy for the skin. The duration of the mask’s application and the heat that it produces both have the added benefit of increasing and facilitating the skin’s absorption of nutrients. This leaves the skin with a rosy glow. The minerals have anti-oxidant behaviour that cleanses the body to reestablish its natural equilibrium. The anti-microbiocidal action of the salt and sulfide helps to prevent the harmful effects that pathogens have on skin, which contributes to the mud’s ability to reduce the onset and appearance of acne.

Used cosmetically or topically in general, Dead Sea Mineral Mud is beneficial for dry, oily, and normal skin types. It removes dead cells from the skin's surface, purges the pores of impurities, and balances the skin's oil production and pH level. While it remains warm and moist, usually for approximately an hour, Dead Sea Mud produces internal heat and stimulates circulation, which reduces the appearance of cellulite. Additionally, it accelerates the skin's detoxification process on the surface and in the tissues by gently drawing out visible and invisible impurities such as air pollution, allergens, dust, and dirt. As the mud dries, it exhibits gentle pulling action that draws out excess oil, tightens, and exfoliates to remove dead skin, which reveals a healthier layer of skin.
With hydrating and firming properties, Dead Sea Mud soothes itchiness and inflammation as well as symptoms of skin ailments such as dryness, acne, eczema, and psoriasis. Furthermore, it enhances skin elasticity, reduces the appearance of pores, and smooths the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
