How to Dry Skin Brush Properly
To brush your skin start at the soles of your feet and work your way up the legs, your front and back brushing as vigorously as you feel able (you’ll find you can build up the pressure after a few days).
Then do your hands up to your arms. Focus the brush strokes, when doing your chest and upper back towards your heart. Don’t do your face but give the back of your neck and your scalp a good go. 
For hygienic reasons you need a separate brush for each member of the family and of course you need to wash the brush itself every couple of weeks.

What sort of Brush to Use for Dry Skin Brushing?
