Dry brushing: a simple ritual for soft, glowing skin
Dry brushing is a natural method that involves exfoliating the skin with a natural-bristled body brush. Performed a few minutes before showering, this action helps eliminate dead skin cells, activate microcirculation, and stimulate lymphatic drainage. The result: smoother, brighter skin, ready to receive your moisturizers. With the right exfoliating brush , you'll find comfort, softness, and tone every day. A ritual to adopt all year round, especially in preparation for or recovery from sun exposure.
How to use your body brush for good skin exfoliation?
Dry brushing is performed on dry skin, with a non-wet exfoliating brush , ideally in the morning to gently wake up the body. The goal is twofold: to exfoliate the skin while stimulating lymphatic circulation , an essential system for eliminating toxins.
Start at the feet, then gradually move up the legs, always towards the heart. Use firm but gentle movements, without ever damaging the skin. Continue on the arms (from the hands to the shoulders), the back, then the stomach by drawing small circles in a clockwise direction. Finish with the chest and the neck, easing the pressure on the most sensitive areas. This routine activates the lymph towards the lymph nodes located particularly under the armpits and in the groin. Result: visibly smoother, softer skin, and a real moment of well-being. Remember to take a warm shower after brushing to eliminate dead cells . Then apply an oil or moisturizer to deeply nourish the skin and maximize the benefits of the treatment.
