Most experts recommend dry brushing in the morning rather than before bed because they believe it has energizing qualities. Some people use the brush on its own; others put a bit of body oil on the brush before they use it. “Shower before skin brushing if you're using an oil on the brush,” says Marrone.
Do I have to shower after dry body brushing? No, you don't have to shower after dry body brushing unless you'd like to, so you can do it any time of day. That said, it's likely easiest to incorporate into your routine before a shower or bath, or when you're changing in the morning or evening.
Stimulating these areas with dry brushing and breast massage promotes detoxification and prevents blockages. When we wear a bra, lymph doesn't drain effectively from the breast. Dry brushing and breast massage drain the stagnant lymph fluid, stimulate fresh blood supply and reduce lymph build-up.
Exfoliation This benefit is often noticed the first time a person dry brushes. The process of running a firm, natural bristled brush over the skin helps loosen and remove dead skin cells, naturally exfoliating skin. I noticed less dry skin and much softer skin in the first few days and weeks after dry skin brushing.

Drawbacks. Let's make one thing clear: Dry brushing isn't safe for every skin type. If you have rosacea, eczema, or psoriasis, dry brushing your face can aggravate your skin and probably do more harm than good. In fact, dry brushing can irritate anyone's skin if overdone.
