Product Description
Size: 1
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. Skin Brushing has been used throughout the world for centuries, and is making its way back into popularity. 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. 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. Skin brushing is also used by beauty salons as part of a program for removing cellulite. 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. A long handle is also helpful for reaching the back and entire body.

I just bought this product at Whole Foods last week. I'm loving it already. The woman working in the health and beauty department there told me it was the best brush she's ever had. Her skin was like butter and she was probably in her mid thirties to early forties. I couldn't believe how smooth it was, so of course I bought it. I have no regrets. I was actually looking for a shower brush. You can use this in the shower if you want to, but it's really meant to be used as a dry brush. Wetting the wood will cause it to warp over time. Dry brushing is done right before you shower in long gentle strokes. It exfoliates the skin and stimulates the lymphatic system. I'm not sure about the second claim yet, but it certainly does a great job at leaving the skin smooth and vibrant. I think the benefits of using this brush for dry skin brushing as it was intended far outweigh any benefit acheived by using it in the shower with soap or body wash. Check out their reading room on the Yerba Prima website (just google yerba prima). I think I'll be using this for years to come.

The brush is ideal for my needs. It is a DRY skin brush. That means you use it dry, not wet. I normally do a fully body brush down each morning before I take my shower. Brushing helps to remove all the dead skin cells, as well as stimulating the superficial lymphatic system. For me the stiffness of the bristles is just right ... it is invigorating without being irritating. The first few days I used it I had to brush fairly lightly as my skin was not used to this kind of sensation, but after several days it became a pleasant feeling and I was able to apply more pressure. If you have very thin skin or brittle skin you should probably start very, very lightly and as your skin becomes healthier, increase the pressure. I chose this brush over others primarily because it is a vegan product. I am very happy with my choice.

This skin brush could have been perfect. The brush itself is amazing. Scrubs very well, very durable. The only problems is the handle it attaches to. To attach it, you just slide it in. When scrubbing your back, it will just as easily slide out. I believe a screw in option would make this thing perfect. If it were not for the handle falling off, i would have given this item 5 stars, one of the main reasons i got this item was to scrub my back

Use for dry brushing
This brush is very well made, easy to use, nice that the brush comes off the handle too. Would suggest using the dry brushing techniques without the handle

Like the brush Only 1 brush
Don't let the picture mislead you. You only get 1 brush not 2 as the picture tends to make you believe. Nice brush for dry brushing. Would not recommend for the shower.

First one I ordered was great...
However, my most recent one (you should replace every 3 months or so) is incredibly coarse. I'm still using it and hope the coarseness will dull with continued use.

Awesome.
Definitely stiff and will feel 'painful' but you will eventually love the feel of it. Great for draining the lymph [be prepared because you will drain... mucus and all]. Read more
