Caring for your Sôra Brush is simple and essential to keep it hygienic and extend its lifespan.
1. Regular Cleaning
After each use, remove skin particles by gently tapping the brush bristles face down against a clean cloth, or by wiping them with a dry towel. This simple step keeps the brush clean and free from bacteria.
2. Deep Cleaning (2 to 3 times a month)
Fill a bowl with warm water, just enough to cover the bristles (never the wooden handle).
Add 3 drops of tea tree essential oil, a natural antibacterial.
Immerse only the bristles and gently swirl them to remove impurities.
After 5 to 10 minutes, rinse by dipping the bristles in clean water until all residue is removed.
3. Drying
Shake to remove excess water.
Place the brush bristles down, ideally suspended or laid on a towel in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight, which could damage the wood.
In humid or cold environments, you can speed up drying with a hairdryer on a warm air setting.
4. Wooden Handle Maintenance (optional, occasionally)
To preserve the wooden handle, apply a small amount of natural oil (such as tea tree, linseed, or olive oil) with a cloth. This creates a protective barrier and keeps the wood supple and durable.
