Care of brush

It is beneficial to remember that your brush is made from natural fibres and much like your cotton bath towel you need to treat it well to prolong its life and stop it developing mildew.

As your brush will accumulate the dead skin cells from daily dry body brushing, spray after each use with our ECOMAX Turmeric cleansing brush spritzer to keep the bristles bacteria free and wash in warm water regularly with an antibacterial soap, shake out excess water and hang brush to dry in the sun.

Never leave your brush soaking in water or in a damp environment.

End of life

Once your brush has reached the end of its life, throw it in with your compost, once the fibres have broken down retrieve the wire and recycle at your local scrap metal collection point.

Why Choose Fair Tade & Natural Fibres?

A healthy choice: Scrubbing your vegetables rather than peeling keeps all the natural nutrients that are found close to the surface. The natural fibre brushes have no nasty chemicals and even the sealants used are non-toxic. They are all plant based fibres and Coir also has the advantage of a natural resistance to fungus and mites.

A responsible choice: By choosing natural fibres you are supporting developing countries and helping to fight hunger and rural poverty. Almost all natural fibres are a product of agriculture and most of them are grown in the developing world. By choosing fair trade you know that the workers are being paid properly and that there is no child labour.

A sustainable choice: Natural fibres are a renewable resource. They are also carbon neutral: they absorb the same amount of carbon dioxide they produce. During processing, they generate mainly organic wastes and leave residues that can be used to generate electricity or make ecological housing material. And, at the end of their life cycle, they are 100% biodegradable.

Additional information About Dry Body Brushing

Dry body brushing, a technique rooted in ancient traditions, has gained popularity in modern wellness practices for its potential benefits. Here are some reasons why people use a dry body brush:

1. **Exfoliation:** One of the most immediate effects of dry brushing is the removal of dead skin cells from the outermost layer of the skin. This can help improve skin texture, leaving the skin smoother and more radiant.

2. **Stimulating the Lymphatic System:** The lymphatic system is a crucial part of the body's immune system, involved in removing waste and toxins. Dry brushing is believed to stimulate the lymphatic system, helping to speed up the process of flushing out toxins and reducing swelling or puffiness.

3. **Increasing Circulation:** The act of brushing the skin can increase blood flow to the area, which can promote cellular health and vitality. Improved circulation can also aid in the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the skin, potentially enhancing skin health and appearance.

4. **Reducing Cellulite Appearance:** Some advocates claim that regular dry brushing can help to break down fat deposits under the skin, thus reducing the appearance of cellulite. However, evidence supporting this claim is mostly anecdotal, and more research is needed to conclusively prove its effectiveness.

5. **Energizing Effect:** Many people report feeling more energized after a session of dry brushing, possibly due to the increased blood circulation and stimulation of the nervous system.

6. **Supporting Detoxification:** By aiding the lymphatic system and potentially improving circulation, dry brushing is thought to support the body's natural detoxification processes, although direct scientific evidence for this benefit is limited.

7. **Mindful Self-care:** The process of dry brushing can be a meditative, self-care practice, allowing individuals to dedicate time to their physical and mental well-being. It encourages a mindful connection to the body and can be a calming routine before or after a shower.

It's important to approach dry brushing with care, using a brush with natural, soft bristles and applying gentle pressure to avoid skin irritation. While many people enjoy the benefits of dry brushing, it's not a substitute for medical treatment and should be one component of a comprehensive skincare and wellness routine.
