Gua Sha is said to be the most prominent beauty tool ever needed as it helps sculpt your features, and mainly reduces inflammation and lymphatic drainage. Sharp nose, lifted skin, a perfectly lined jaw, these are the most wanted features by all, but did you know that this can be achieved if you included Gua Sha in your daily skincare routine?
Gua Sha is a natural, alternative therapy that involves shaping and stroking your skin with a massage tool to
- improve your circulation,
- reduce inflammation and lymphatic drainage
- Released tension in the face and neck
- Improved appearance of fine lines and dark circles
Now how do you use a Gua Sha ?
Do not fret with the appearance of a Gua Sha, it may look confusing, but this tool is easy and simple to use for your skin, follow the steps below for best results
PRO TIP: Gua Sha can be used in any part of the body however ensure you are not using it on bare skin. It is best to use with face oil to ensure your skin is protected and free from friction
Go along with your chosen skin care routine and once you have moistened with your chosen face oil:
- Hold your Gua Sha with the curved side to your face. Gently and slowly glide it up and out, starting with the neck. Always make sure that you are stroking down the neck never upwards as the goal is to drain away the fluid
- Once done with the first step, move onto your jawline, chin and around the mouth, stroking the skin between three and five times per area. Always take short strokes in just one direction, never back and forth which helps to reduce puffiness effectively
- Next, press the tool flat to the skin and gently stroke under the eyes or over any redness to soothe and de-puff.
Finally, work the tool in small horizontal strokes over the brow bone to lift, or hold and press upwards between the brows to release tension.
