RED HAWAIIAN SEA SALT

The Little Red Flecks With a Purpose

At RAH/CEL, every ingredient has to earn its place. Here is why red hawaiian sea salt made the cut.

What Is It?

Red Hawaiian sea salt is a visually distinctive salt traditionally associated with reddish mineral-rich clay. Its appearance may vary by source and processing.

Why We Chose It

Its distinct earthy-red color lends visual character to salt scrubs. Salt grains can provide physical exfoliation, helping loosen surface flakes when used gently; the mineral color isn't evidence of special medical benefits.

Good to Know

This is an exfoliating ingredient, not a treatment. Avoid use on broken or irritated skin.

Fun Fact

Traditional Hawaiian 'alaea salt gets its red color from iron-rich volcanic clay. In Hawai‘i it has a history in ceremonies and blessings as well as food traditions—quite a story for those little reddish grains.
