Dead Sea treats: how to choose the best products?

When it comes to mineral-based skincare and health products, the Dead Sea is considered one of the world’s top destinations. The rich minerals found in the Dead Sea water are known for their ability to renew, heal, and moisturize the skin. But with so many products on the market, how do you know which ones are the best? Here’s a guide with tips and important points to help you choose the best Dead Sea products:

1. Amount of minerals

A key difference between different products is the concentration of minerals they contain. Minerals such as magnesium, calcium, bromine, and potassium, all of which are found in Dead Sea water, are known for their soothing and healing properties. It is important to check whether the product you are purchasing explicitly states the concentration of minerals, and if so, to make sure that the concentration is high and appropriate.

2. Natural ingredients

Checking the ingredient list is essential when purchasing any skincare product. Products containing natural and organic ingredients may be more effective and safer to use on the skin. It is recommended to avoid products containing preservatives and artificial chemical additives that may cause allergic reactions or sensitivity.

3. Certifications and standard marks

Products that have certifications from recognized health institutions and/or standard labels, such as ISO or a quality mark from the Ministry of Health, indicate that they have undergone extensive quality and safety testing. These products are considered more reliable and safe to use.

4. Customer reviews

Don't ignore recommendations and opinions from other customers who have already tried the products. These opinions can be a good source of information about the product's quality, effectiveness, and value for money.

5. Expiration and storage

Natural products tend to be more sensitive to storage conditions and the effects of time. Check the product's creation and expiration dates, and make sure you consume it within the allotted time. Also, store the product in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight.

6. Product type

The Dead Sea offers a wide range of products - from bath salts and oils, to creams and lotions, to face masks and body scrubs. Choose the type that suits your personal needs, while promoting the health of your skin.

7. Price vs. Quality

There is often a direct correlation between the quality of a product and its price, but this is not always the case. It is important to consider the value you are getting for the price. Look for products that provide high quality without overpaying. Comparing prices between several stores or websites can be helpful.

8. Support and customer service

Manufacturers of Dead Sea products that offer customer service and support tend to be more trustworthy. Check to see if the manufacturer provides customer service if there are any problems or questions about the product.

9. Product accessibility and availability
