Bodecare Deluxe Dry Body Brush - Tampico Bristle with removable handle

• Natural Tampico Bristles
• Removable Long Handle

This premium body brush is designed for daily use to exfoliate the skin. The bristles are fine and won't scratch the skin. The handle is curved so it hugs the body as you use it. The handle is also removable and the head comes with a canvas hand strap so it's easy to travel with or get in close by guiding the brush with the palm of your hand instead of with the handle.

Why use a Dry Body Brush?

Your skin is the largest organ in your body, and as such, is responsible for helping you detox. Using a dry body brush will help the detox abilities of your skin. If you look after your brush, you will only ever have to buy one, making this a much more economical body exfoliant than tubs of product.

Our consulting naturopath, Julie McNab, had me buy one of these over 5 years ago now, and I still use the same brush each day, and it's still as good as the day I bought it.

How to use your dry body brush.

Gently brush your skin in a circular motion starting from the extremeties and working towards your heart. The brush should be used dry, not wet. It's best to use your dry body brush before you shower. Take a few moments to shut the rest of the world out and focus on how your skin feels as you brush. It's a stimulating and almost hypnotic experience as you focus on how your skin feels and brush away impurities. You know that amazing feeling you get when you scratch an itch? This is a gentle version of that feeling that quite literally brings you to life. It's so hard in today's busy world to get a lot of down time, but take the minute or two each day that you use this brush to focus completely on you and nothing else.

This practise can help to improve your circulation, the flow of your lymphatic system (which is why we brush towards the heart), and helps your skin expel toxins from the body. It is useful for normal skin, and also for those with dry skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis and keratosis pilaris (the little lumps women get on their forearms).

Caring for your brush.

Wash the bristles with a tea tree soap, taking care to just wet the bristles and not the timber. Pad the bristles with a towel to remove as much excess water and allow to completely dry before you use it again. Dry with the bristles facing down so the water dries away from the timber, not towards it.

You can also spray the bristles with a tea tree spray to kill any bacteria that may form on the bristles.
