It costs absolutely nothing to cleanse your body and start the journey towards internal and external wellness. If you do it the right way, you might even get rid of cellulite while at it!
Are you interested in transforming your skin for the better? Well, there is a routine you need to develop NOW! This simple, inexpensive routine is the answer to all your skin related problems.
Have you ever heard of dry brushing?
This simple trick requires you to brush your dry skin using a Natural Bristle Brush for only five minutes, but the results will blow your mind. When you start, you can do it once a day, but over time, your skin will become so soft that you will only need to dry brush weekly.
Skin sensitivity
Before dry brushing, you will need to test a little area of your skin first so that you determine how sensitive your skin is. Some skin types are more sensitive than others and may get irritated if dry brushed too vigorously. It is, therefore, a good practice to be cautious and gentle when dry brushing. This is not a cause for alarm though, because the worst that can happen is a small patch of red skin which will eventually manifest.
What is dry brushing?
Dry brushing means you use a dry brush to brush the skin. Dry brushing is typically done systematically towards the heart. That is, you should start from your hands and feet and brush slowly towards your chest. Dry brushing is best done right before taking a shower.
So how does dry brushing work?
The idea dry brushing is to detox the body from the outside towards the inside. It requires you to ‘show love’ to your skin. It requires you to swipe a dry brush over your skin to stimulate your lymphatic system and exfoliate your skin.
This stimulation is necessary because the lymphatic system lacks a pump like that of the heart and instead relies on muscular movements to exfoliate. By stimulating your skin to exfoliate, you boost your skin’s circulation and improve the elimination of wastes through your skin.
- Exfoliation
Dry brushing boosts the circulation under the skin and makes the skin appear more youthful.
- Energy boost
Dry brushing has stress-relieving effects which leave a person feeling energized and refreshed, especially when done right before a shower.
- Detoxification
It clears the clogs in the pores and rejuvenates the skin for a softer feel.
- Cellulite removal
The massaging motion used in dry brushing helps to soften the hard-fat deposits found under the skin, thereby eliminating cellulite.
- Relieves stress
Dry brushing is like massaging the body and leaves the body relaxed and the mind calm. Think of it as an inexpensive massage.
- Circulation
It improves the circulation of blood on the surface of the skin, making skin softer and more youthful.
- Lymphatic stimulation
Dry brushing boosts the lymphatic system to eliminate wastes from the body tissues.
