So, I don't remember how I came across it, but I'm really interested in knowing if anyone here dry brushes. It sounds amazing (Google, Pinterest, etc. have great explanations and images). I think most of us could benefit from all the things it is supposed to do. I just want to hear some personal experiences...

And I'd love to find a way to work it in at least once a week... I could do with increased natural detoxing, less swelling, better skin, less breakouts, healthy glow!

    Let me know how it goes. I can't afford these as of yet (yes, I know they're cheap, but 1) I don't have a bank account or any online payment system and 2) I'm recovering from severe financial issues...), so I'm looking forward to feedback.
