What Kind Of Brush Needed

You need to get a brush that has natural bristles. Do not buy the synthetic brushes because it can scratch your skin! Ouch! I love using the brushes that have a long handle and that can simply be detached. The longer handle is amazing for those hard to reach areas and the detachable brush can be used for your arms, chest, stomach and legs. You can buy these brushes almost anywhere just make sure they are natural! And besides, they make your bathroom look like a spa.

Where To Dry Brush

Some people think that dry brushing is only for the legs, but honestly dry brushing everywhere is the best thing for your skin. I dry brush every part of my body, my back, stomach, legs, feet, arms, and chest, even my booty. My skin has never looked and felt better! Just make sure not to dry brush over scratches or opened wounds. This can cause damage to you skin and defeats the purpose of dry brushing.

How To Properly Dry Brush

When I dry brush, I simply brush towards my heart in a circular motion. I start with brushing my feet and work my way up towards my chest. Just make sure that you are brushing towards your heart. When I first started brushing my skin was a little red, so when you first start out, gently brush your skin until it can handle more pressure.  Note to self: Dry brush on dry skin ONLY!

How Often You Should Wash Your Brush

I wash my brush about two times a week with shampoo, and I make sure to rinse it out very well! Hang it somewhere where it can dry completely and you have yourself a clean brush! Why do you need to wash it? While brushing, dead skin cells will collect on the bristles. Kind of gross, right?

How Often You Should Dry Brush

You should dry brush at least once a day. It’s a good idea to do it right before you shower, so that you can wash off all the dead skin cells. If you’re just starting out you can start by doing 3 times a week and then work up to doing it every day-especially if you have sensitive skin.

Dry Brush on a Waterless Body

One of the points of dry brushing is to do it on dry skin. Don’t brush with lotions, or oils either. When you brush on just your skin it helps remove the maximum amount of dry skins cells, and give you the most benefits.
