Dry skin brushing helps you to remove dead skin cells and open the pores. It also increases the blood flow to the skin and allows the lymph system to discharge itself from toxins as it speeds up the healing process and rejuvenation of the skin. When you skin brush, you help the body discharge lots of metabolic waste and help it deal with bacteria, resulting in a more resilient healthy looking skin.
Skin brushing also has other significant benefits such as it strengthens the immune system, increases cell renewal, helps with digestion and tightens the skin.
Buy a long-handled brush (one that is easy to reach different areas of the body especially back) that is NOT made with synthetic bristles. The brush must be made of natural material so it does not scratch the skin. Avoid using it on your face as it may be too harsh for it. The idea is to brush gently, especially over areas that are affected with acne.
