dry off
Use a towel
To dry off is to remove moisture from a surface, typically one's body after bathing or swimming: She grabbed a towel to dry off.
The phrase emphasizes completion—you dry off until you're no longer wet.
It can also apply to objects: Let the dishes dry off before putting them away.
