How to use your Gua Sha Tool

Prepare: Begin your gua sha facial massage by applying facial oil or moisturiser to clean skin. Before you begin, it's important to avoid performing gua sha on problem areas such as active breakouts, open wounds, or irritated skin.

Back of neck: Start by finding a curve to fit the base of your neck. Gently scrape the stone tool upwards towards your hairline 5 to 10 times. Repeat upward strokes on either side of your neck 5 to 10 times.

Front of neck and Chest: Start by gliding the large flat edge under the collarbones in outward strokes towards your shoulder. Repeat on the other side. Move onto the front of the neck by gently gliding the tool in an upward motion along the throat to under your chin.

Jawline: Glide your tool upwards from the center of the chin out to the earlobe to contour the jaw.

Cheeks: Start at the nose and work upwards in a sweeping motion along the cheeks and cheekbones, moving outwards toward your ears. Scrape once, then move down a bit and scrape again, move down a bit more to the center of the chin, and scrape again.

Eyes: Start in the inner corner of the eye and glide outwards to the temple. Remember to use feather-like strokes.

Forehead: Start at the center of the forehead divide your forehead into three sections and glide your tool outwards. Then move down slightly and repeat the action

Finish: End your gua sha facial by gently scraping the sides of the neck in a downward motion. This will help to move toxins and excess fluids out of the system.
