Gua Sha Facial Tool
Gua Sha Facial Tool
Never really been seen or sold in Iceland before, we read about Gua Sha years ago & have been intrigued by the simplicity and power that this little tool can possess. Gua Sha is a Traditional Chinese medicine technique that uses scraping motions to stimulate the body's energy force, called Qi which increases circulation. We love using it with a face oil to glide more smoothly as well as to give a more glowing complexion.
By practicing the Gua Sha method, it can spark collagen production, help acne, act against signs of aging & other benefits. Our Gua Sha tool is made from jade, which is a cooling stone that helps keep away negative energy.
We suggest to keep in the freezer to make the ritual ultra-relaxing or to use it as a hangover cure for those wild ones.
How to Use:
Cleanse your face.
Apply 2-3 drops of oil.
Hold the Gua Sha Tool at a 15-45 degree angle and either follow our guide or watch videos from professionals.
Repeat this relaxing ritual 3-5 times a week.
