Walk down any beauty aisle and you will find salt scrubs everywhere. But here is the thing most brands are not telling you: the salt matters. The oils matter. And the way those ingredients work together on your skin matters more than the pretty packaging ever will.

After years of formulating body care products, I want to pull back the curtain on what actually goes into a salt scrub, why we made the choices we made, and how understanding those choices can help you get the most out of your routine.
