Spring is the perfect time to give your skin a fresh start! By dry brushing your skin and using a nourishing body scrub, you can refresh your skin, increase blood circulation and give yourself a nice energy boost. Here, Me Anima shares her best tips for spring-cleaned and radiant skin.
Dry brushing – your skin's detox
Dry brushing is an effective method to increase blood circulation, stimulate the lymphatic system and remove dead skin cells. By dry brushing daily, you will get firmer, smoother and more radiant skin.
Here's how to dry brush for the best effect:
1. Use a scrub mitt and lightly dampen it before you start.
2. Start at the feet and work your way up in circular motions.
3. Brush the stomach with gentle movements in a clockwise direction.
4. Work along the arms up towards the armpits to stimulate lymph flow.
5. Brush the décolleté and neck with light pressure.
6. Finish with long, sweeping strokes from feet up to the heart.
After dry brushing, your skin may turn slightly red, which is a sign that circulation is starting. Shower your skin with alternating hot and cold water for a refreshing effect.
Finish by applying Me Anima Organic Energizing Body Oil to well-moisturized skin for extra nourishment and moisture.
Why you should dry brush regularly:
- Increases blood circulation and gives the skin a healthy glow.
- Strengthens the lymphatic system and helps remove waste products.
- Prevents ingrown hairs by exfoliating the skin.
- Helps prolong the tan during the summer.
- Gives the skin a softer and smoother feel.
- Make a homemade body scrub for extra glow
If you want to give your skin a deeper exfoliation, you can swap dry brushing for a gentle body scrub once or twice a week. A simple, homemade scrub is just as effective as expensive products!
How to make a natural body scrub:
1. Mix fine salt or sugar with Me Anima Energizing Organic Body Oil.
2. Add a little honey for a softer and more moisturizing effect.
3. Massage the scrub into the skin in circular motions.
4. Rinse off with lukewarm water in the shower.
5. Dry the skin gently so that the oil remains on the skin.
Tip: Use the scrub just before showering to avoid spills and maximize the effect.
