You could go to a piercing studio and get some expensive special formula (and that probably would be the best, because it would have a little more than just salt in it), OR you can go to any grocery store and buy sea salt :) It comes in shakers and grinders like regular salt. Anyone who cares about cooking uses sea salt rather than regular salt.
