The virtues of gua sha

A traditional Chinese treatment method, the use of gua sha stimulates collagen production to better redefine facial features. An essential tool for improving the absorption of oils on your skin, this ritual will help you regain smooth, firm, and radiant skin.

To be used daily with your oils, without moderation for a lifting effect and sublimated skin.

- Skin Preparation: Always start by cleansing your face. Then, apply an oil or serum to help the tool glide and prevent irritation.
- Tool Position: Hold the gua sha almost flat against your skin, at an angle of about 15 degrees, rather than perpendicularly.
- Movements: Make slow, gentle strokes, moving from the center of your face outwards, following the natural contours of your face.
- Pressure: Apply light to medium pressure. For delicate areas like around the eyes, use very gentle pressure.
- Frequency: Incorporate gua sha into your daily routine, morning and evening, for optimal results.
- Cleaning: After each use, clean your gua sha with lukewarm water and mild soap, then dry it thoroughly before storing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I store my gua sha?

- Protection: Store your gua sha in a case or pouch to protect it from dust and potential impacts. This also prevents scratches and cracks.
- Dry environment: Store the tool in a dry place to prevent moisture from damaging the ceramic.
- Cooling effect: For a soothing sensation during use, you can place your gua sha in the refrigerator before the massage. This provides a refreshing effect that is beneficial for the skin.

Are there any contraindications to using gua sha?

Active skin conditions: Individuals with bleeding disorders or on anticoagulant therapy are advised to consult a healthcare professional before using gua sha, as they are more prone to bruising.
Coagulation disorders: Gua sha should also be avoided on areas with conditions such as cystic acne, eczema, psoriasis, or open lesions, as this could worsen the skin's condition.
Skin inflammations: In cases of rosacea, severe acne, or other skin inflammations, it is recommended to refrain from using gua sha or to seek advice from a healthcare professional.

How do I clean my gua sha?

1. Rinse with lukewarm water: After each session, rinse your gua sha under a stream of lukewarm water to remove any cosmetic product or oil residues.
2. Clean with mild soap: Apply a small amount of mild soap to the tool and use a soft-bristled brush to gently clean all surfaces, paying special attention to any grooves.
3. Thorough rinse: Make sure to rinse the gua sha thoroughly to remove any soap residue that could irritate the skin.
4. Drying: Use a clean, soft towel, preferably microfiber, to gently dry your gua sha.

What is the difference between a ceramic gua sha and a quartz gua sha?

Ceramic gua sha stands out for its naturally cooling effect, offering a soothing sensation that helps decongest the skin and reduce puffiness, while quartz is primarily valued for its energetic properties.
