Gua Sha Facial Sculpting Tool
Gua Sha has been used for thousands of years to reduce the signs of ageing. This centuries-old selfcare practice involves using a Gua Sha tool to firmly stroke the skin, increasing blood circulation and lymphatic drainage and stimulating acupressure points in the face and neck.
Gua Sha can noticeably reduce puffiness and contour your facial curves, and can help tighten, tone and smooth the skin and promote a brighter, more revitalised complexion.
5 minutes with your Gua Sha and your skin will look and feel invigorated and lifted.
The facial massage that Gua Sha gives also allows your skincare products to penetrate much more deeply into the skin - combine your Gua Sha session with your favourite serum or oil, and it will work that much harder for you.
A regular Gua Sha routine is such a nice way to de-stress - both physically (as it relaxes facial muscle tension, especially in your jaw, forehead and between the brows) and also mentally, as you can use your Gua Sha time as a mindful, slow moment for yourself.
This Gua Sha tool is made from genuine rose quartz stone, with smooth rounded edges in a traditional 'heart' shape - of all the Gua Sha shapes available, this is best to use for your face. Each of the two sides and two ends is intended for specific motions on the face. For example, use the two-pronged end to hug your jawline and stroke upward for a very satisfying jawline-sharpening action (our fave Gua Sha move).
We love keeping ours in the fridge - being natural stone, it'll be nice and cool when you take it out to use it, and this cooling effect is great for de-puffing - especially under the eyes.
You can find loads of excellent, short Gua Sha tutorials on YouTube, Instagram or TikTok. The average routine ony takes a few minutes (3-5) to do.
