Tampico FSC Dry Body Brush - firm

1. Start at soles of feet, stroking brush from toes to heel. Continue on top of the foot from toes to ankles and ending at Achilles tendon behind ankle. Cover both sides of the foot.

2. Brush slowly and gently. Continue upward brushing strokes up the leg ensuring to cover the entire leg, up toward the lymph node in the groin area. Avoid areas where you might have scratches or anything that would make contact with the brush painful.

3. Don't use the regular brush on your face, as your skin is far too delicate. Use a specially designed facial brush like our Jute Dry Face Brush.

4. Once you're finished, you can shower, which washes away all the dead skin cells you've loosened.

What are the benefits of dry body brushing?

Dry body brushing is a natural health practice, which involves brushing over the dry skin dry and usually followed with a bath or shower. It is believed to help detoxify by increasing blood circulation and promoting lymph flow/drainage. It also stimulates your nervous system, which can make you feel invigorated afterward.

How many times a week should you dry brush your skin? Brushing once a day, just before a shower or bath is perfect. Morning, noon or night it doesn’t matter, just when it fits in with your schedule. Do not dry brush on freshly shaved or waxed skin as this may be too irritating. Wait for a day or two to start dry brushing again, especially if you have a firm dry body brush.

How long does it take to dry brush your body? Dry body brushing is one of the simplest and most economical ways to improve your skin. It can be as quick (or long) as you like. We find the best time to dry body brush is right before you shower. Always use your brush on dry skin.
