Should You Dry Brush Daily?

When should I dry brush? Dr. Engelman suggests dry brushing every day to see results. She recommends dry brushing to her patients, but cautions that it's possible to over-exfoliate if you're using extreme pressure on sensitive skin.

How often should you dry brush?

Inherently energising, dry brushing is best done in the morning, right before you take a shower, as the exfoliation will mean any body washes, oils or lotions you use after will have a better chance of nourishing your skin. And for the best results, most experts recommend you do it every day.

What happens if you dry brush everyday?

The most common side effect of dry brushing is irritated skin. This is more likely to happen if you brush too hard, brush too often, or if your skin is especially sensitive. While your skin may be a bit pink after a session, you most definitely don't want to see redness or abrasions on the skin.
