Take your wellness routine to the next level with double dry brushing: dry brushing with two dry brushes. An effective ritual that enhances exfoliation, boosts circulation and supports lymphatic drainage in half the time. It’s more than skincare; it’s a deeper dialogue with your body, where you listen to its needs and bring out your natural glow.
In this article by our founder, Mette Skjærbæk, you can learn more about the technique behind double dry brushing.
Double dry brushing means dry brushing with two dry brushes at once, one in each hand.
I’ve been doing this for years, and it’s become such a habit that it almost feels wrong to use just one brush.
The benefits of dry brushing are numerous…
Double the circulation boost
Using two brushes effectively stimulates blood circulation, energising your body and promoting healthier, more radiant skin.
Faster full-body brushing
With two brushes, you can cover more skin in less time, making your dry brushing routine quicker and more efficient.
Super exfoliation
Achieve smooth, soft skin as two brushes work together to gently remove dead skin cells and cleanse pores.
Balanced lymphatic drainage
Two brushes allow synchronised strokes that optimise lymphatic drainage, helping your body eliminate toxins effectively.
The ultimate self-care ritual
Enhance your experience with the rhythmic movements of two brushes, delivering a spa-like treatment that relaxes the mind and refreshes the body.
The most comforting feeling
The sense of synchronicity and the rhythmic movements of two brushes on the skin feel so nice! It’s like having a dry brushing treatment with a skin therapist or enjoying a spa treatment.

... For me, the benefits of brushing with two brushes are both that the feeling of synchronicity on the skin feels really nice, and that it’s twice as fast. Even though it’s not about time or speed: dry brushing is such a lovely way to calmly say good morning to yourself - to say good morning to your skin. But I do love results, so give me double the results along with a lovely sensation on the skin!
When you hold a brush in each hand, it will feel natural to you how to use them.
Feet and legs:
I brush one leg at a time using both brushes.
Hips and buttocks:
I brush both areas simultaneously, one brush on each side.
Stomach:
The motion is light and upward, with the brushes side by side.
Lower back and neck:
Same technique as on the stomach – brushes side by side.
Arms and between the shoulder blades:
I only use one brush here, not two.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.
I’m often asked: “Can I brush with one RECHARGE and one BUFF brush?” And while you certainly can, I personally prefer using two RECHARGE brushes or two BUFF brushes. You can do this with both our long-handle brushes and our brushes with short leather straps.
… And what about double dry brushing for the face?
The same benefits apply here. It feels so stimulating and dynamic to dry brush with two RENEW brushes on the face at once. You just need to find your flow, and then it feels natural in your hands. Here, I primarily dry brush both sides of the face at the same time.
Happy double dry brushing!
With love, Mette

Even if you don’t use aromatherapeutic skincare or products for the home, nature still ensures that aromatherapy is all around us. Trees and plants release invisible plant compounds, phytoncides, which research links to lower stress levels and increased activity in the body’s natural defence cells. This is a beautiful account of forest bathing, nature’s aromatherapy and the scientific evidence behind it.
