How to use a face Gua Sha

1. Cleanse and Tone

   It's best to perform gua sha on clean skin. If you use toner, apply it after cleansing. Also, make sure your hands and the tool itself is clean. A drop of cleanser and water are all you need.

2.  Apply a Facial Oil

   Place a generous amount of face oil to your face, neck, and chest. Oil will help the tool glide more easily, but if you prefer a cream or water-based lotion that is OK. Just note that you may need to reapply more throughout the process.

3.  Perform Gua Sha

   Now you can begin your actual gua sha practice. Holding the tool at a 30 to 45-degree angle, very gently pull/scrape it across your skin. As a rule, all movements should be upward and follow lymphatic flow. Repeat each movement three to five times before moving onto the next area of your skin.

   Campbell-Semien recommends the following movements as part of your gua sha facial routine:

   • Jawline and chin: Glide your tool upwards from the center of the chin out to the earlobe to contour the jaw.
   • Forehead: Start at the center of the forehead and divide your forehead into three sections and glide your tool outwards. Scrape once, then move down a bit and scrape again.
   • Cheek: 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.
   • Undereye: Start in the inner corner of the eye and glide outwards to the temple.
   • Brows: Glide upwards along the brow bone - going from the inside out.
   • Lips: Glide over your lips back and forth about five times for a plumping effect.
   • Neck: Section your neck into four areas and scrape each section from the bottom up.
    

4. Remove Excess and Complete Regimen

   If you want, you can massage the remaining product into your skin with your hands, or you can wipe away any residual oil or cream with a damp cloth. Afterward, complete your go-to skincare routine.

   For best results, our experts recommend performing gua sha three to four times a week for about three to five minutes each time.

While using a face roller may feel good against your skin, it may also provide the following benefits:

• Improves lymphatic flow and drainage.
• Improves blood flow.
• Reduces puffiness.
• Reduces inflammation.
• Cools and soothes skin.
• Provides relaxation.
• Reduces stress
• Distributes skincare ingredients more evenly.
