B,
Thank you so much for your suggestion. I never thought of that possible scenerio, but you know what that would make a lot of sense. I think you are on to something. Aunt Flo after that was much lighter (back to normal and even a little lighter than normal). I haven't been brushing as faithfully, but at least try to brush 3-4 times a week.
It is amazing how different my skin feels when I get into the shower after brushing. Much softer, though my skin is still dry (most likely from winter) I will be very interested to see if I don't need lotion in the summer while skin brushing.
I just had a Natural Bodycare party a few weeks ago and they sell a skin brush that is much softer than the one I bought, they recommend it for sloughing off dead skin as well as the benifits to the lymph and blood flow systems. In other words I highly recommend skin brushing, it has several benefits.
Thanks again for your suggestion,
poppyseed
