We don’t recommend you use this on your face. This is a good second dry brush or for those who like to dry brush a few times a week. This is a good brush for Pitta (sensitive) or Kapha (oily) skin.

Dry body brushing helps shed dead skin cells resulting in smoother and brighter skin. It also stimulates blood circulation and lymphatic drainage.

The traditional Ayurvedic dry massage is called garshana. The ideal time to use the Made by Yoke dry brush is in the morning before showering.

Prep Your Bathroom

Dry brush upon awakening in the morning before showering. Dry brush in the shower, or on a towel, in the bathroom to collect dry skin.

General Rules of Thumb

Apply medium pressure so that you can feel the movement, but not scratch the skin.

You always dry brush towards your heart to help get the lymph moving upward. Once you get above the heart, on the neck, move strokes in a downward motion towards the heart.

Feet and Legs

Begin at the feet with long sweeping motions moving towards the heart. Move along each limb on its own, repeating strokes 2-3 times on both the front and the back of the legs.

Use shorter motions when working around joints like knees and elbows

Stomach

Use light circular, clockwise motions. Repeat 3-4 times at a slow-to-moderate pace.

Arms

Starting with the hands make your way upward toward the shoulders. Repeat strokes 2-3 times on both the front and the backs of the arms.

Neck and Heart

Start at the jaw line and very lightly move toward the chest. Repeat strokes 2-3 times on each side. Complete by drawing light circles around the heart.

Shower and Hydrate

Always take a shower post dry brushing to remove dead skin. Hydrate with body oil to ensure your body is moisturized to replenish the new layer on the surface of the skin.

Care: Be sure to change your dry brush every 4-5 months.
