Dry skin brushing has a number of health benefits and a simple way to detoxify your body. The skin is the largest organ in the body and is one of elimination where toxins are excreted. Dry brushing helps to unclog the pores and encourages toxic excretions, exfoliates the skin making it appear more vibrant, as well as can increase circulation and blood flow. Add this amazing self-love ritual to your routine at minimum 3 times a week. Daily is optimal.
Instructions:
Begin brushing by starting with dry skin at your feet and moving in long sweeping motions toward your heart. Always brush toward your heart.
Brush several times in each area, overlapping as you go.
Use caution over sensitive areas, such as breasts & neck. Your skin will become less sensitive after you make brushing part of your routine.
Once you've brushed your entire body, shower. At least once during this shower, shock your body with cold water to encourage circulation and elimination. For best results, use a detoxifying soap, such as a sea salt bar.
Pat skin dry and smooth on a natural oil moisturizer. Do not use any products containing petrochemicals
Clean your brush weekly with warm water & mild soap. Hang brush to dry and ensure it dries completely to prevent mold or mildew. Store in a dry place.
