What is Dry Brushing?
Dry brushing involves gently sweeping a dry, natural-bristle brush across the skin. This age-old technique stimulates the lymphatic system, removes dead skin cells, and boosts circulation. The sensation is invigorating, offering both physical and emotional renewal. A dry brushing brush is best used on bare, dry skin before bathing or showering, creating a tactile and energising morning ritual or a soothing evening wind-down.
What are Dry Brush Benefits?
Dry brushing offers a wealth of benefits when practised regularly:
Exfoliates Dead Skin: Gently lifts away dull, flaky cells to reveal softer, more luminous skin underneath.
Boosts Circulation: Stimulates blood flow, improving skin tone and enhancing overall vitality.
Supports Lymphatic Drainage: Encourages the natural detoxification process, aiding in the removal of toxins and reducing fluid retention.
May Reduce Cellulite Appearance: While not a cure, dry brushing can temporarily firm the skin's appearance by increasing blood flow and lymphatic drainage.
Improves Product Absorption: Preps the skin to better absorb moisturisers and oils post-shower.
Promotes Mindfulness: Invites a moment of calm and intentional self-care in your daily routine.
Stimulates Nervous System: The brushing action can refresh and energise the body by lightly stimulating nerve endings.
Encourages Skin Renewal: With regular use, skin texture and tone may visibly improve over time.
Wet VS Dry Brush: What's the Difference?
Understanding the distinction between wet and dry brushes can help you choose the right method for your skincare needs:
Dry Brushing
Use on dry skin before bathing or showering.
Focuses on exfoliation, lymphatic drainage, and circulation.
Typically includes firm, natural bristles.
Leaves skin feeling invigorated and deeply cleansed.
Wet Brushing
Use during a shower or bath, often with a body cleansing oil or body wash.
Provides a gentler exfoliation and soothing experience.
Ideal for sensitive skin or relaxation rituals.

FAQ: Your Dry Brushing Questions Answered
How long does it take to see results from dry brushing?
Many notice smoother skin after just one use, while improved tone and circulation typically emerge within a few weeks of consistent practice. Long-term benefits, such as skin texture improvement and better lymphatic health, can become more visible over time.
Is dry brushing good for your body?
Yes. It gently exfoliates, supports lymphatic drainage, and promotes circulation, making it a holistic addition to your self-care ritual. It is also an act of tuning in, listening to the body’s needs and responding with intention.
How many times a week should I dry brush my body?
For most, two to three times per week is ideal. Sensitive skin types may benefit from starting once a week. Over-brushing can irritate, so it is best to start slow and gauge your skin’s response.
Do I dry brush before or after showering?
Dry brush before your shower to sweep away dead skin, then rinse off the loosened debris. Follow with a hydrating oil or lotion to seal in moisture.
Is it better to dry brush in the morning or at night?
Morning brushing can be energising, activating the nervous system and waking up the body. Evening sessions may help you unwind. The best time is when it naturally fits your rhythm.
Should you dry brush towards or away from your heart?
Always brush toward your heart. This supports healthy lymphatic flow and enhances circulation. For limbs, use long strokes; for joints and stomach, use gentle circular motions.
Should you dry-brush your breasts?
Yes, but gently. Use a soft brush and light pressure, avoiding nipples. This area is sensitive and should be approached with care. Light, circular motions around the breast area can support lymphatic drainage.
Should I dry brush my stomach?
Yes, and it is encouraged. Use circular motions moving clockwise. This follows the natural direction of your digestive system and supports gut health and detoxification.
Our Body Cleansing Oil and Body Brushes work in synchronicity to deliver a unique experience that encourages the body to perform, whilst also providing a space for clarity, reflection and care.
