Detoxification is done by number of organs such as kidney, lungs, liver and it includes our skin too.Our skin eliminates over one pound of waste acids every day which is most through sweat glands.
Dry brushing is a technique which detoxify the skin and stimulate all other organs of detoxification .It basically provides an internal massage to our body.
Dry brushing is quiet popular in countries like Europe and is excellent for all types of skin especially dry skin.
Below are few of the benefits of Dry Skin Brushing
1.Removes Cellulite
2.Tones the muscles
3.Stimulate blood circulation
4.Helps digestion
5.Removes dead skin layer
6.Strengthen the immune system
As dry brushing is helps in shedding dead skin cells which leads to improving the skin texture and cell renewal.It is recommended to dry brush daily.Problem like eczema, psoriasis and dandruff are due to lack of dry brushing.
Dry brushing tightens the skin by increasing the flow of blood.
There are many many more benefits of dry brushing which I don’t even remember right now.
Dry brushing was introduced to me by Harsha.She has been using it for a year and experienced a phenomenal change in her skin.Dry brush is available in Body shop with a whopping price of Rs 995.I can spend this much for a make up brush but not for a bathing brush for sure.I didn’t picked it up.Few days later I saw Dry brush in Hyper city and it was available of Rs 150 in Bare Essential brand.Bare essential products are amazing to use and I didn’t doubt the quality of the brush , even when there was such a big difference between both the brands prices.
How to use it
Begin with your feet and brush vigorously in circular motions.
Continue brushing up your legs.
Proceed to your hands and arms.
Brush your entire back and abdomen area, shoulders and neck.
Use circular counter-clockwise strokes on the abdomen.
Lightly brush the breasts.
Brush upwards on the back and down from the neck. Better yet, have a friend, spouse or family member brush your back.
Dry brushing of skin can be performed once a day preferably in the morning.A through skin brushing takes around fifteen minutes but if even few minutes spent prior to bathing also benefits the skin.
Avoid areas which has rashes, cuts or infections.
Finish it up with shower by taking hot shower first for few seconds and then cold.This will further stimulates the blood circulation and bring more blood to the outer layer of the skin.(I know it is quiet effective but I did it once as I don’t have this much of patience)
After the shower massage your skin with almond, sesame, coconut , apricot or avocado oil or any body butter.Massaging helps in taking out the pain from the body.
 I clean it once a week by using soap and water then I place it under the sun to prevent mildew.
To get rid of your skin ailments with the help if dry brush takes around 30 days but a normal healthy person can see her skin improving with in a week.
Also , I have no complaints with the brush which I got.Bristles of the brush are pretty soft and doesn’t hurt my skin.One brush last for long too.So this time missing Body shop was not that a bad idea.
