Yerba Prima Tampico Skin Brush

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.

  • To aid the body's natural cleansing process, as part of a yerba prima internal cleansing system.

  • To exercise and stimulate the skin.

  • To gently exfoliate and deep clean the skin.

4Yerba Prima Body Brush for Dry skin brushing  Jul 21, 2008
By MD CNM
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.

5Excellent skin brush  Apr 05, 2009
By Drew Corrigan "Mac enthusiast; Bodyworker; Yoga Instructor"
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.

5Healthy Skin  Jul 04, 2009
By Manatus22 "A-"
Brush will become flexible w/use. Rub on your hands a little bit of aromatic oil and brush brush over your hands- the oil will soften the pips. Brush w/ the grain, always in the direction of your heart. A wonderful 3-5 minute morning beauty and health routine. Shower or bathe After the brushing to eliminate toxins. Use on dry skin only. Enjoy.

I have bought two, one formy husband and one for me. Detachable handle makes it versatile. I like the product. Will recommend it.

4A Little Rougher Than I Expected  Feb 21, 2009
By Kerri L. Bliss
I have used skin brushes for many years for the benefit of skin clearness and cirulation. I am pleased with this brush, but it might be a bit harsh (the Tampico type) for someone who has NEVER skin brushed before. I have been happy with brushes bought at the local drug store with the softer brushes and I feel recieved the same benefit. I will continue to use this brush, but buyers if you have never used a skin brush, use this one a little lighter to the touch on your skin when you use it.
