The Beginner’s Guide to Using a Gua Sha
You may know by know that Gua Sha’s are dominating the skincare industry for their amazing results in reducing puffiness and sculpting the face—and it’s true. When used consistently, this skincare tool can do wonders for your skin. It provides an immediate improvement in your appearance and has unbelievable benefits. The reason Gua Sha’s work so well in shaping your face is because they target your lymph nodes, which carry fluids that can cause your face and neck to appear puffier than normal. This traditional Chinese medicinal tool can not only be used on the face, but on the body as well to boost blood circulation and relieve pain and tension.
TIPS FOR USING A GUA SHA
- Start with a clean slate! Cleanse and follow up with your typical morning or night routine.
- Be sure to use a moisturizer or oil on the area to help the tool better glide against the skin and avoid tugging.
- Use the flat side of the tool for optimal benefits and apply light to medium pressure. Make sure it feels comfortable.
