What Is Body Brushing?
Body brushing, also known as dry brushing, involves using a firm natural bristle brush on dry skin before showering or bathing. Using long sweeping motions towards the heart, this ritual helps exfoliate the skin and invigorate the body.
Dry brushing has been used for years within wellness and spa rituals and has become increasingly popular thanks to its ability to instantly leave the skin feeling softer, smoother, and refreshed.
Why Is Body Brushing Important?
Throughout the year, dead skin cells, dryness, and rough texture can build up on the skin, leaving the body looking dull and feeling dehydrated.
Body brushing helps:
- Gently exfoliate the skin
- Encourage smoother-looking skin
- Support circulation and skin stimulation
- Help body oils and creams absorb more effectively
- Create a relaxing wellness ritual
- Leave the skin glowing and refreshed
Many people also love body brushing as part of their morning routine because it helps leave the body feeling energised and invigorated.
How To Body Brush Correctly
Step 1: Start On Dry Skin
Always body brush before showering or bathing. The skin and brush should both be dry.
Step 2: Begin At The Feet
Using gentle sweeping motions, brush upwards towards the heart.
Step 3: Work In Sections
Move slowly up the legs, stomach, arms, and back using long strokes.
Step 4: Be Gentle
The skin should feel stimulated, not sore or irritated. Avoid sensitive or broken skin.
Step 5: Shower & Nourish
After body brushing, shower or bathe before applying your favourite body oil or moisturiser. This allows products to absorb more effectively into freshly exfoliated skin.
