The Yerba Prima Tampico Skin Brush is a wonderful, revitalizing health and beauty aid. Removing the top layer of dead skin and stimulating the circulation of blood feeding the skin are essential for maintaining youthful, glowing and supple skin.Dry skin brushing is one of the best ways to cleanse the skin without removing the protective mantle of acid and oils.  It gently and effectively removes the top layer of dead skin cells with its build-up of dirt and acid, and deeply cleanses the pores. Many women comment that their skin starts to look and feel smoother within a week or two of starting to use the Tampico Skin Brush. Skin brushing is one of the most powerful ways to cleanse the lymphatic system.  Waste material is carried away from the cells by the blood and the lymph.  Skin brushing stimulates the release of this material from the cells near the surface of the body.  Eventually, most of the toxins along with their carrier cells, primarily lymphocytes, find their way to the colon for elimination. As the largest eliminative organ, the skin plays a vital role in ridding the body of toxins and impurities that are potential sources of illness. Skin brushing is most effective with an all-natural vegetable fiber brush, such as the Tampico Skin Brush.  Make sure the brush isn’t made of synthetic fiber since this can irritate the skin. The best time to skin brush is right before your shower or bath.  Health experts recommend brushing when the skin is dry for best results.  If you have poison ivy, skin rashes, infections or inflammatory problems such as phlebitis, do not brush that part of the skin. Begin with very gentle strokes and adapt the intensity of the brushing to match the sensitivity of your skin. A slight flush due to increased blood circulation is normal, and shows that your skin brushing is working. The total process takes only two or three minutes.  When you are finished, step into your bath or shower. The basic principle is to brush from the outermost points of the body (hands and feet) towards the center. Start by brushing your feet and then up your legs with smooth gentle strokes.  Brush your hands and up your arms.  Brush across your upper back and down the front and back of the torso.  Cover the entire surface of the skin except for the more tender skin of the face and breasts. After dry skin brushing, you will feel the invigorating, tingling energy of increased circulation. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
