Dry brushing has been used for centuries across many cultures to remove dead skin and stimulate circulation in the bloodstream. Ancient Greek, Japanese, and American Aboriginal cultures have been known to rub sand against their skin for exfoliation, an early form of dry brushing. Today, dry brushing has risen to the forefront of the beauty scene for its amazing results and lasting benefits. I encourage my clients at Miraval Arizona, one of the leading destination spas in the country, to dry brush a few times a week to improve their skin’s appearance and enhance their overall well-being.
GROWING IN POPULARITY
Dry brushing has gained popularity because it helps exfoliate skin and create a radiance that is perfect for the summer months when our skin is front and center. This practice should be an important part of your client’s beauty routine because it encourages new cell turnover and aids in renewing the skin and its texture. As your largest organ, the skin is the passageway for most of the impurities that enter your body. Internally, dry brushing helps get rid of the toxins and excess minerals underneath the skin’s visible surface. It’s not meant to irritate the skin and if your client does it often, it is the perfect internal stimulant.
Dry brushing is a great addition to anyone’s beauty routine, as it helps shed dead skin cells, allowing skin care products such as lotions, body oils and creams to more easily penetrate the skin for the best possible results. It’s best for your clients to dry brush before showering so they can wash off the dead skin cells they’re removing. After the shower, it’s best to use a moisturizer to hydrate the skin and aid in cellular turnover.
