I've heard from annie jubb and dr. lindsey duncan on the patrick timpone showthat it's best to brush towards the heart as it's what is circulating your blood. I use a skin brush from time to time and like that technique!

Hello Alicat, I love dry skin brushing. I always brush in a circular motion towards the heart, starting from the feet and working up the legs and from the hands up to the shoulders.... Using a brush with natural bristles is best too. Its best to brush just before you shower too.

I start on my face and hair, then put my arms up and do hands down to shoulders. Then feet up to my core, always towards the heart. It seems to brighten up your face right away. And I get red itchy bumps in some spots, maybe that's old allergens coming out, I dunno. Karyn Calabrese says it can rid away stretch marks arfter years of brushing.
