How to Use Body Dry Brush

This beauty + wellness ritual has been practiced for centuries in cultures all across the world but is most deeply rooted in India’s most ancient holistic healing system, Ayurveda. Known as Garshana, this traditional detoxification ritual is practiced to support the removal of stagnant waste (also known as ama) from the body to promote optimal vitality + longevity.

Dry brush before showering or as an invigorating, energizing way to begin your day. Brush with light pressure and gentle, short strokes.

  • Beginning at your feet, brush upwards towards your heart.
  • On your stomach, brush below your belly button down towards your groin area and brush above your belly button up towards your heart.

Reviews

Ok so far.

"I'm new to dry-brushing so I'm still unsure of the method, and the results I should be expecting. The how-to section for the brush and the suggested blog post are good at explaining the benefits of the action, but could be better on the instructions. I'm trying not to think too much into it and just brushing in the directions of the basic figure drawing. Regarding the brush; the wooden handle is nice and easy to hold, but some bristles fall out when I'm using it, so I hope that's not a bad sign. We shall see."

Andrea W. (4/5)

Great size

"So far so good. It's soft and I guess it works. I don't see real change but I probably need to use it more often. The brush is soft and easy to grab."

Elizabeth C. (5/5)

Wonderful

"I’ve had several body brushes and this one is the best! The size is perfect and it’s so easy to use. The bristles are soft against my skin and I find myself using it daily whereas the others were sporadic in use."

Karen H. (5/5)

Soft Dry Brush

"Very soft dry brush. I love that it is made of natural materials. I am tired of using plastic ones that are not good for my body. This is something I can trust and I’ve been loving using it."

Arman D. (5/5)

Bristles fall out

"I like how the bristles are softer than other dry brushes I have used so I can exfoliate without the bristles scratching my skin. However the bristles shed and fall out continuously while in use, so I rarely want to actually use it because I know it will just cause a mess of bristles for me to clean up. Disappointed the quality is this poor considering the price."

Rebecca (2/5)

"Brush does shed in the beginning but it feels great and hoped gets my lymph system moving."

Maile (5/5)

Must have!

"The size and quality of this dry brush is fantastic, I use multiple times a week!"

Jennifer P. (5/5)

A simple tool that makes a big difference

"This dry brush has become such an easy addition to my routine. It’s a simple tool, but the quality is so good and you can really feel the difference right away. It gives my skin a smooth, refreshed feel and I always notice a boost of energy after using it, especially in the mornings. It’s one of those habits that feels small but makes a big impact over time. The bristles are firm but not too harsh, and it just feels really well made. Definitely something I’ll keep using consistently."

Leonella D. (5/5)

Leanna S. (5/5)

Q&A

hi. Where are your brushes made?
We work directly with our team in Tianjin, China to produce these. :)
Can I use the body brush for face?
Hi there, We would not recommend using on the face, it is too coarse.
Is dry brushing sage while pregnant?
Thank you for reaching out and we are happy to help! Taking extra precautions when it comes to nurturing little lives is of the utmost importance to us. Dry Brushing is meant to help get blood and the lymph system flowing and is safe during pregnancy. We do recommend checking with your healthcare practitioner prior to use if you have questions/concerns. XO, Pure Team
Is it okay to dry brush after showering once dry?
Hi Rachel, Yes! As long as your skin is dry. :) XO, The Pure Team
Wondering how this new edition differs [other than aesthetic] from your original edition. Thanks!
Hi Amanda, We've made this updated version easier to hold and upgraded the bristles to 100% boar hair. :) XO, The Pure Team
