i have a bindi surface anchor... anyway it seems to be doing great, but i had a question about sea salt and dry skin...

i'm not really doing sea salt soaks anymore, just spraying it with that h2ocean sea salt spray.. but whenever i wash my face or get out of the shower it seems dry around the anchor... it always looks like that after showering so if its trying to push out its not making much progress, but does anyone know why it does look like that... i think it could be the sea salt, i have very sensitive skin...


If I saw something good, I guess I wouldn't worry.

Try stopping the H2Ocean

Try stopping the H2Ocean spray and go to a regular sea salt soak. A proper sea salt solution will not dry out your skin. The H2Ocean, however, likely can since you just spray it on and leave it. That lets the water evaporate leaving the salt on your skin, which can dry it out.

I'd suggest not doing

I'd suggest not doing anything at all. Just leave it alone.

Moisturize as normal (without getting any on the jewelry).

If it gets crusty or oozie, a warm compress would be fine, but it doesn't even need to be salty.

I find they do best with little effort.
