Removing dry skin - After bathing and while still wet give yourself a massage with dry salt. It removes dead skin particles and aids the circulation. For a stimulating facial, mix equal parts of salt and olive oil and gently massage the face and throat with long upward and inward strokes. Remove mixture after five minutes and wash face. It is called salabrasion and requires several treatments by rubbing salt on the tattoo.
Healing is required between treatments, but there is virtually no scarring.
Other Uses Extinguishing grease fires - Keep a box of salt handy at your stove and oven and if a grease fire flares up, cover the flames with salt. Also a handful of salt thrown on flames from meat dripping in barbecue grills will reduce the flames and deaden the smoke without cooling the coals as water does. When burned they will not drip. Use only plain, not iodized, salt. Then return them to their tank.
