Low risk

FunctionPhysical Scrub

What it is — Sodium Chloride (Sea Salt) (INCI: Sodium Chloride (Sea Salt)), also known as Sodium Chloride, is a physical exfoliating particle.

What it does — It is commonly used as a gentle physical scrub to buff away dull surface skin and to help adjust the thickness of cleansers.

Typical use — It is used in scrubs and cleansing products to manually buff away surface debris and dead skin. How coarse the particle is determines how gentle or rough the scrub feels.

Who it suits / good to know — Best used gently and not too frequently; over-scrubbing can irritate. Those with sensitive or compromised skin may prefer non-abrasive options. Let the particles do the work; pressing harder is not gentler.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk in its EWG-style, ingredient-by-ingredient review. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is easily irritated.
