How Do I Dry Brush My Body Effectively?

Dry brushing is a simple self-care ritual that gently exfoliates the skin while stimulating circulation and encouraging lymphatic flow. Here's how to get the most from your IKOU Japanese Dry Body Brush.

Before You Begin

Always use your body brush on dry skin before showering. Dry brushing on damp or wet skin reduces the exfoliating effect and may cause unnecessary friction.

How to Dry Brush

  • Start at your feet and brush upward toward the heart using long, gentle strokes
  • Continue from your hands toward your shoulders, always brushing in the direction of your heart
  • Use lighter pressure on delicate areas such as the chest and abdomen, brushing in gentle circular motions
  • Spend around 3–5 minutes on your full body before stepping into the shower

After Your Session

Shower to rinse away exfoliated skin cells, then apply your favourite IKOU Body Oil or Body Lotion while your skin is still slightly damp to lock in hydration and nourish freshly exfoliated skin.
