Mio Skincare The Mio Body Brush

Instantly perk up skin with The Mio Body Brush from Mio Skincare. Expertly developed to stimulate and revitalise, the brush features natural boar bristles and massage nodules to sweep across the surface layer of skin with an exfoliating action, activating cellular renewal and circulation to help reduce the appearance of ‘orange-peel’ for a firmer, smoother feeling texture. Ideal for all-over body use, the brush is a fast and effective way to leave skin feeling fresh and pampered from top-to-toe.    

Start at soles of your feet and work your way up the body using upward strokes. Always brush in the direction of your heart. When brushing your stomach and chest use clockwise sweeps following the direction of your digestive system. Pay special attention to backs of thighs or areas where you have cellulite.

The pressure used should be stimulating enough to increase circulation but gentle on your skin. You should see a rosy flush to the areas you have brushed. It’s good to try and give a minimum of 3 minutes for this whole body brushing, ideally 3 times a week.

Most massage therapists recommend brushing on dry skin, pre-shower. We have been brushing for years on both dry AND wet skin. Sometimes wet skin is easier and less scratchy and you can do it immediately after a bath/shower before towelling dry. It is up to you which one fits into your routine easier.
