I am reposting in this category, since this is where I meant to post it. I looked and looked and couldn't find this post today. haha. that's what happens when you are tired. lol.

anyway...

I saw that my mom has a little duo brush/stone tool in the bathroom.

I used the brush side on my face, which I guess it is for nails/feet, but it was actually soft. I had told my mom about dry brushing and I guess she's been doing it. She said she is also using the pumice stone and I was wondering if this is bad?

I brushed it on my cheek and was just cold and very smooth, nothing like the brush side, so I wonder if it even does anything. I don't even know how it could sand down your feet b/c there was no scratchiness at all.

Drybrushing is meant to encourage circulation as well as brush off dead cells.

A pumice stone would be used for scraping off calluses, like on your heels and such, after soaking.

There used to be a huge thread on here about skin sanding, which is effectively what this is. People have used sandpaper, emery boards and a soft pumice is prob not that different!

Good for exfoliation, but go easy.

I never thought you could use a sandpaper to exfoliate your face but sounds like a good try tho.
