Detangling or conditioning, fine to medium hair or thick or curly hair, there's an Altesse Studio brush for you!
An ancestral detox technique, dry brushing is on the borderline between skincare and well-being. More than just a trend, this gesture allows you to press pause and take a moment to yourself to detoxify your body. Discover the unsuspected effects of dry brushing on body and mind.
What is body brushing?
Originating in Asia, dry body brushing involves brushing the skin, ideally before showering. As the name suggests, it must be performed on perfectly dry skin, without oil or cream, using a specially designed brush. The aim? Detoxify and tone the body, soften and firm the skin. And soothe the mind.
Dry brushing, the key to detoxifying the body and sublimating the skin
When done properly - from feet to arms, legs to stomach - and with the right tool, dry brushing offers a multitude of benefits:
● Exfoliates naturally, without any exfoliating products to remove dead cells, smooth and soften skin.
● Stimulates blood circulation by activating microcirculation, to better oxygenate tissues and reduce the sensation of heavy legs.
● Boosts the lymphatic system to help drain toxin-laden tissues, combat water retention, improve transit and immune cell circulation.
● Reduces the appearance of cellulite and orange-peel skin over the long term thanks to its detoxifying, anti-inflammatory and firming effect.
Body brushing, a (precious) interlude of relaxation and well-being
Beyond its effects on the body, dry brushing is a gesture of mindfulness, an ally of choice for calming the mind.
A relaxing break to unwind and let go
As part of your daily beauty routine, dry brushing offers much more than just skin care. It's a moment for yourself, an invitation to take full advantage of the present moment. Feel every caress of the boar bristle on your skin, enjoy every movement of your brush on your body.
A ritual for better sleep
This ultra-sensorial ritual soothes the mind while revitalizing the body. While it helps to wake up and tone the body in the morning, it frees you from accumulated tension when performed in the evening before showering. It's the perfect combination of relaxation and quality sleep, so you can drift off to Morpheus' arms in total peace.
