Dry body brushing is an ayurvedic technique that has been practiced for centuries. It is performed by brushing the skin of your body with a natural bristle brush. Body brushing and be done to dry skin or you can combine it with a nurturing body oil such as our Skin & Sky Abundance Body Oil. Ideally, this practice can be done in the morning before taking a shower. It exfoliates your skin, unclogs pores, eliminates toxins, increases blood circulation and boosts lymphatic drainage. It also makes you feel energized which is why it is a great way to start your day. To dry brush effectively, follow these steps:  Begin with your feet and ankles, apply medium pressure as you stroke towards the area behind your knees.   Continue to stroke upwards toward your hips.  Continue brushing towards your heart.  Brush your hands and arms in the direction of your elbows and armpits.  Gently brush your neck and decolletage towards your heart.  Take a shower to wash away dead skin cells.  Apply Abundance Body Oil to moisturize your skin.   Body brushing will make you feel invigorated, and you will notice smoother, firmer and more radiant skin. You can practice body brushing daily or a couple of times per week. Remember to do this practice mindfully- feel your skin as it awakens and becomes alive with every stroke.    

What is the secret to glowing, healthy, and radiant skin? We could argue that exfoliation is the key step that makes all the difference. However, exfoliation is usually ignored. Most people exfoliate sporadically or when they attend a spa or facial. Few people incorporate exfoliation in their daily skincare routine, but those who do are well aware of the benefits. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, promotes circulation, and allows skincare products to be absorbed better. This way, your whole skincare routine gets an upgrade.  The stratum corneum is the outermost layer of your skin. It keeps shedding old or dead cells and rebuilding new ones to replace them. This natural process of renewal takes approximately 28 days; as we get older, the skin renewal slows down. When it accumulates excess dead cells, the skin might appear dull, dry, grayish, or unhealthy. The product's penetration decreases, and the skin tends to get dehydrated. The skin needs our help to remove those dead cells and stimulate cell turnover. An exfoliant is a product that removes dead skin cells from the skin, improves texture, and minimizes the appearance of pores.  Our skin looks healthier, radiant, and luminous when we exfoliate regularly with a gentle mechanical exfoliant. By exfoliating our skin regularly between 2 to 3 times per week, it will glow and look more youthful as we stimulate the renewal of our cells and maximize the effects of our skincare routine because there will be no dead cell obstruction for more efficient product absorption. Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, allowing the products you apply following the precise steps of your beauty routine to be absorbed more easily. This helps maintain radiant, healthy, youthful, and clear skin. Our Skin & Sky Intuition Exfoliant is a gentle and nourishing exfoliant meant to be used daily. It is packed with moisturizing and healing ingredients that nurture your skin as you gently rub away dead skin cells. Enjoy exfoliating your skin- take your time and do it consciously. Use your fingertips to apply our Intuition Exfoliant with smooth, circular movements. Feel the stimulation and blood flow and rinse away, revealing a more radiant and renewed you.
