Facial Brush (Horse Hair);

The ""Dry brushing"" is one of the best beauty tricks kept to leave the skin healthy and beautiful, removing more dead cells than a wet exfoliation. This is a traditional Ayurvedic ritual (called Garsham) in India to rid the body of toxins. On my last trip to Thailand I get it these brushes so that I could put them at your fingertips and that you too can now enjoy all their benefits. They are 100% natural brushes, made with materials obtain directly from farmers group to promote the local economy.

* How should be done the 'dry brushing'?
First of all, the skin must be completely clean, free of makeup, creams or any product. For one minute you must make upward and circular movements from the neck to the forehead. You shouldn´t brush too hard the skin. It is convenient that you do it in the morning, as soon as you wake up, due to the energy provided by the exfoliation. The brush you use must have natural and soft bristles. Another effective way to exfoliate the face is to make lines from the center out, repeating each movement three times. You must start at the chin area and make the line to the ear, and then go up to the forehead. To finish you have to make small circular movements in the opposite direction from the forehead to the chin.

* Benefits of 'dry brushing' on the face
Facial 'dry brushing' helps activate microcirculation in the exfoliated area. Promotes rapid cell regeneration by removing dead skin cells, helps clean clogged pores and prepares the skin so that it can better absorb moisturizers or nourishing oils that you apply when finished. Thanks to the 'dry brushing' you will make your skin look brighter, smoother and shinier.

* Types of skin that should avoid facial dry brushing
Facial dry brushing isn't recommended under any circumstances for sensitive skin, fairly dry skin or with pustular acne.

* Frequency with which you can do a facial dry brushing
Generally, it is advisable to exfoliate your face dry brushing once or twice a week.

* Products that can be used later
After brushing your face you can use your usual treatment.

-RECOMMENDATIONS:
Wash the brush the first time before using it with warm water and soap.
Simply wash your brush with soap and water once a week.
After use, allow it to dry either by placing it with the bristles upside down on a clean surface or leaving it hanging. In this way, moisture will not penetrate the sows.

Body Brush (Horse Hair);

The Benefits;

- STIMULATES LYMPHATIC FLOW AND INCREASES BLOOD CIRCULATION
Dry Body Brushing promotes healthy, glowing skin and aids lymphatic drainage.Dry body brushing the skin helps stimulate the normal lymph flow and increases blood circulation within the body, helping the body to detoxify itself naturally.

- HELPS TO REDUCE CELLULITE
Cellulite can be frustrating for individuals who attempt to remove it. Waking up the lymphatic system by dry body brushing will help reduce excess fluid, bacteria, and cell waste which results in smoother, brighter skin.

Used regularly, dry body brushing can be used as a natural cellulite treatment. This along with a healthy, well balanced diet and moving your body daily through exercise and yoga is an ideal match to reduce cellulite.

- AIDS IN THE DETOXIFICATION PROCESS AND IMPROVES DIGESTION
Dry body brushing is a powerful detoxification aid. The skin is our largest eliminative organ in our body. Dry body brushing is major player in the detox process as it stimulates your lymphatic system and helps it to release toxins.

Adding dry body brushing to any kind of juice cleanse or fast will help speed up the detoxification process. Many detox programs and experts across the world have been using this age old practice for many years and have supported its method.

- STRENGTHENS BODY AND IMMUNE SYSTEM
Dry brushing supports lymph flow, which is essential to immune function. The lymphatic system is a major part of the body’s immune system. If the lymphatic system is congested, it can lead to a build-up of toxins, causing inflammation and illness.

- FIRMS THE SKIN AND MAKES IT GLOW
Dry body brushing will give your skin a brighter, tighter, and more radiant look by increasing the flow of blood to your skin's outer layers. Like any exfoliator, it sloughs away dead, dry surface cells. It removes the dead skin layer and allows the body to breathe, leaving you with smooth and even-toned skin in no time.

To further the glow and invigoration, we love to use a natural plant based oil such as organic coconut oil with essential oils after bathing.

- INCREASES ENERGY
You will crave the sensation! Many people start dry brushing for the health benefits but end up continuing because it makes them feel good. If you are feeling sluggish, a few minutes of dry body brushing is an excellent way to wake up and rejuvenate in the morning.

- MINDFULNESS
Dry body brushing helps to balance the autonomic nervous system, which supports adrenal function by reducing stress. When you have relaxing, soothing, tactile input that’s stimulating the nerves in the right way, it calms your brain.

Taking five minutes to dry body brush in a meditative way using your breath can help you feel more grounded and connected. Re-establishing this connection with yourself daily can be extremely powerful. This simple, all natural practice is the perfect way to start your day, or calm your soul in the evening.

INSTRUCTIONS;
1/ You can dry body brush anytime of the day before bathing. First thing in the morning is especially invigorating, giving you a boost of energy for the day ahead. If you are brushing in the evening you can use a more gentle, methodical stroke; which will help calm the system and can result into beautiful meditative self-care ritual.

2/Take three to five minutes for this wonderful practice. Begin brushing by starting at your feet and moving in long sweeping motions toward your heart as this moves with the flow of the lymphatic system. Use firm, small strokes upwards, several times in each area: 

•   Begin sweeping your feet, starting with the soles of your feet as this area has many little nerve endings that need to be stimulated

•   Continue brushing up your legs and groin area

•   Proceed to your hands moving up your arms. Move to your armpits as there are many lymph nodes here and it will get any toxins and stagnant energy moving. 

•   From your neck stroke down towards your heart

•   Use circular clockwise strokes on your abdomen - this follows the path of your colon and helps stimulate elimination.

•   Brush upwards from your buttocks, lower back and down from your neck

Please be sure to avoid areas that have an open wound, varicose veins, sun burn or rashes. 

3/Use light pressure on areas where the skin is softer and more pressure on those harder areas. Take care of the more sensitive areas of the body such as your chest, breasts and stomach. A slight pinkish colour may occur at first on your skin due to increased blood circulation. This is normal and shows that your skin brushing is working. Over time your body adjusts and it starts to crave the sensation.
 

4/After you have brushed your entire body take a cool shower, I like to alternate between hot and cold to keep stimulating blood circulation.

After you have dried off use an organic sweet almond, sesame or coconut oil on you skin with an invigorating essential oil blend to keep you uplifted and your body glowing.

Brush Care;

1/A small amount of pure, all-natural, chemical-free soap, castile soap is our favourite.
    

2/A few drops of organic essential oils such as tea tree oil - for its natural antibacterial properties. Or, Lavender - for its disinfectant qualities, blood circulation and its particularly pleasant aroma.
Simply add the castile soap and your preferred essential oils in a small bowl filled with water - ensuring the water line is slightly lower than the bristles are. It is essential to keep the walnut wood dry to maintain the integrity of the brush.

Gently swirl the bristles around a few times, shake off any excess water and leave to dry in a open aired space with bristles facing down. Ensure the entire brush is dry before using.

The Body Brush is made from all natural sisal bristles from the agave plant and you may find it develops an earthy scent. We love this natural tone!

A few tips:   
             Shake or tap your brush over a bin to release any dead skin.
             Although we love sharing, keep your brush your own.
             Keep your brush in a dry place, away from moisture.
             Wash your brush once a week.
