Dry skin brushing is something you do - as the name suggests - to dry skin, before you get in the shower. It is a good way of boosting your circulation and can help with cellulite as it encourages lymphatic drainage which rids your body of toxins. It also exfoliates the skin, leaving it glowing. You need a natural bristle brush to brush your skin for five minutes each day - start at your feet and brush in the direction of your heart with long, firm strokes.
