The perfect guide to Dry Brushing

By now you must have heard of dry brushing. This technique won hearts of holistic beauty gurus all over the world - and Gwyneth Paltrow is swearing by it ! In this guide we explain everything you need to know about dry brushing. 

What is the dry brushing technique?

Gaining popularity in recent years and also known as "gharshana", dry brushing has its origins in Ayurveda, an ancient tradition of Indian medicine. This ritual aims to maintain balance between body, mind and soul. Consisting of brushing dry skin from the bottom up using a wooden brush with natural or synthetic bristles, this practice provides an aspect of lymphatic drainage. Known for its multiple benefits, including stimulating blood circulation, dry brushing may help reduce the feeling of heavy legs, water retention and cellulite.

How to dry brush?

Bristles in brushes used to dry brush are traditionally hard. At the beginning your skin may be red and irritated so start slow - use gentle pressure to get used to dry brushing. It will get better with time ! 

How to dry brush ? Use circular motions and start from the feet moving up to the heart. Avoid sensitive areas. Do not use any product - dry brushing, as the name suggests, is performed on dry skin. Start dry brushing with the feet, then the calves, thighs, buttocks up to the groin folds. Perform circular movements to the front and back of the body, repeating them 3 times. Continue with the hands, forearms and arms up to the armpits. Then brush the stomach (clockwise), the chest, then the back towards the lymph nodes located on each side of the neck. Finish with the neck and collarbone towards the armpits. Shower after the ritual. 

What are the benefits of a dry brush?

By acting as a mechanical exfoliant , the dry brush removes dead cells, promoting softer, smoother skin. Additionally, brushing stimulates blood circulation, improving the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the skin. Thanks to dry brushing helps to reduce the appearance of cellulite. Additionally, it can prevent ingrown hairs by removing dead cells and opening pores. Beyond the physical benefits, this practice also offers moments of relaxation and connection with the body, thus contributing to psychological well-being .
