The brush-off
Posted Monday, August 28, 2006 at 05:02PMFile under “Potentially Life-Improving Stuff I Think About Doing All The Time But Never Actually Get Around To”: Healthia Cynthia blogs about dry-brushing, the practice of sloughing your dry skin with a long-handle, natural-fiber brush. In addition to leaving you all glowy and beautiful, dry-brushing helps stimulate your lymphatic system and help rid your body of toxins. Cynthia recommends making it a pre-shower ritual, assuring one pain-fearing commenter that “it feels really great, like a brisk walk on a gently raining evening.” Somehow I’m finally sold, and in between starting this post and ending the last sentence, I visited Amazon.com to get myself a way-affordable Tampico Dry Skin Brush from Yerba Prima. Seven bucks for a product that Cynthia promises will “give you a whole new lease”? A big huge happy hooray to that.
