Frequently asked questions
What are the benefits of storing your Gua Sha in the fridge?
Reduces Puffiness: The chilled stone helps constrict blood vessels, reducing swelling and puffiness, especially around the eyes.
Soothing Effect: Cold temperatures calm inflammation and provide relief to irritated or sensitive skin.
Refreshing Experience: The cool touch of the stone enhances the overall sensory experience, making your skincare routine feel more luxurious.
Boosts Circulation: The temperature contrast can help stimulate blood flow for a radiant glow. Storing your Gua Sha in the fridge is an easy way to amplify its natural benefits for your skin!
What is dull skin?
Dull skin is when your skin looks tired and lacks a healthy glow. It can be caused by factors such as the buildup of dead skin cells and poor circulation. You can combat this by using a Gua Sha tool to improve blood circulation and detoxify the skin.
How to clean a Gua Sha stone
Wipe the Gua Sha with a towel after each use and with warm salty water for a deeper cleanse. For best results, store your Gua Sha tool in the fridge or freezer for a refreshing experience!
How to incorporate the Gua Sha Stone into your AM/PM routine?
Prepare your skin: Start with clean and moisturised skin. Apply a SKOON. concentrate to provide lubrication and prevent friction during the Gua Sha session.
Apply gentle pressure: Hold the Gua Sha facial tool at a slight angle and apply gentle pressure to your skin. Begin with light pressure and gradually increase it if desired. The pressure should be firm enough to engage the skin but not so intense that it causes discomfort or pain.
Follow a specific pattern: Start at the centre of your forehead and gently scrape in upward motions towards the hairline. Repeat this motion across the entire forehead. Move to the eyebrows and scrape gently from the inner corner to the outer corner.
Next, move to the cheeks and scrape from the nose outward along the cheekbones. For the jawline, start at the chin and scrape along the jawline towards the ears.
Finally, focus on the neck area and scrape from the centre of the neck upward towards the jawline. Repeat the motions: Repeat each motion or pattern several times, around 3-5 times, on each area of the face.
Maintain a gentle and fluid motion throughout the process.
Take care of your skin afterwards: After the Gua Sha session, gently cleanse your skin to remove any excess oil or product. Apply a moisturiser or any additional skincare products as desired.
