Dead Sea Cosmetics Products with Style. On the earth’s lowest elevation on land, 1,388 ft below sea level lays one of the world’s saltiest bodies of water. With 33.7% salinity, the Dead Sea is said to be almost 10 times saltier than the ocean. It lies in the Jordan rift valley bordering Israel to the east and the West Bank to the left with its primary inflow from the Jordan River. The lake is 55 km long, 18 km wide at its widest point and is 1,237 feet deep making it the deepest hyper saline lake in the world.
Hyper saline lakes such as the Dead Sea are landlocked body of water that contains significant concentrations of sodium chloride and other minerals and with saline levels not lower than 3% or 35 grams per liter. This salinity enables people to float and makes it a very harsh environment wherein very little forms of life can flourish, thereby giving it its name.
Biblically, it was a place of refuge for King David and is one of Queen Cleopatra’s favorite spot for rejuvenation. Different springs around flowing towards the lake contribute water and its minerals along it. Having no outlet, the Dead Sea becomes the end point of the said minerals which makes it highly concentrated with iron, potassium, magnesium, calcium and many others which are known for their ability to stimulate blood circulation, calm achy muscle and joints, help relieves stress and tension and even smoother, soften and rejuvenate the skin. It was one of the world’s first health resorts traced back to the times of King Harold the Great, and has been the supplier of a wide variety of products from balms for Egyptian mummification to potash for fertilizers.
