A flat, wide stiff brush with short bristles is best.

Also, the bristles shouldn't be too hard !

Don't laugh..... I always use the kinds of brush the women blush their cheeks with..... works perfect for me and.....it's cheap if you have a girlfriend or a wife....

Exactly like penpen says.
Micro-Mark sell's a nice set of Mongolian Sable brushes
that are specifically made for drybrushing. Or you can buy them
individually.
