An ebonised beechwood body brush with silver-infused synthetic bristles for antimicrobial protection, le feu d'argent is an exfoliating brush for the body that gently buffs away dry skin, while stimulating the lymphatic system to help remove toxins. The skin is left beautifully soft and smooth to the touch.

Silver ion technology ensures that the body and bristles of your brush are protected from harmful microbes, supporting a healthy environment for the skin. Independent trials demonstrate that our face and body brushes have 99.7% efficacy in reducing microbes.

This product is treated with Polygiene BioMasterTM silver biocide tested to ISO 22196:2011 standards.

Body brushing is a wonderful practice to fire up the body ~ it stimulates the circulation within blood vessels and encourages movement within the lymphatic system to remove toxins. Dry cells are sloughed from the skin’s surface revealing glowing and healthy skin, which feels smoother and softer.

However, brushes can harbour harmful bacteria if they are not cleaned regularly and kept in a dry environment. Our brush bristles are infused with silver ion technology and the handles are treated in the same way, ensuring that the entire brush is 99.7% effective in reducing the presence of harmful bacteria.

By using our brushes, you’re ensuring a healthy environment for the skin so that the natural balance of the skin’s microbiome can flourish.

Finding time for an exfoliating skin-brushing session soon becomes as natural as brushing your teeth, as you come to appreciate how it helps to remove dry skin and improve circulation, resulting in noticeably smoother, softer skin.

Brush skin before showering or bathing by starting at the feet and moving up the legs. Use circular motions around ankles, knees, hips and buttocks, where dead skin cells can build up. Brush the underside of thighs to stimulate blood flow, prevent the build up of cellulite, and help improve the appearance of skin tone and texture. Similarly, brush in a sweeping motion from hands to shoulders on the inside and outside of arms. Always brush towards the heart ~ in circular motions from the abdomen upwards and from the décolletage downwards.

After brushing, shower or bathe, and follow with our hydrating body lotion, la lotion infinie, to cocoon the skin with moisturising care. Skin-brushing ~ the body care ritual that leaves you glowing with health.

As the brush handle is made from wood, looking after it ensures it has a long life.

Most wood body brushes expand when in contact with water, which reduces their longevity. Our brushes have been treated with a water-resistant coating, however it is important that they are allowed to air-dry fully in a well ventilated place between uses. 

le feu d’argent is designed to be used for dry brushing. If you choose to use it wet ~ use warm water (below 30-35°C) and let the brush air-dry with bristles facing downwards after every use. Always store with bristles down.
