Dry Body Brush

If you love body care, the chances are you've heard of dry Brushing: a technique consistently praised by many celebs.

The history: It stems from Ayurvedic medicine and is part of India's 5,000-year-old holistic health care system. Dry Brushing uses a medium-bristled brush to exfoliate the outer layers of dry skin and increase lymphatic movement.

Dry Brushing is also a part of a self-care routine passed down from the Ancient Egyptians; they pioneered the extraordinary beauty ritual. They were said to have used the dry body brushing technique for thousands of years for soft, supple skin.
