Benefits of Gua Sha
Gua Sha is a traditional Chinese therapy helping to support local circulation, reduce oedema, nourish the skin and improve facial contouring.
Each stone has different properties suited to different skin types:
Green Jade
Green Jade is the traditional choice for Gua Sha. It has a long history of use in Chinese medicine and is considered the ultimate gemstone of ancient Chinese beauty treatments. It is naturally cool to the touch it is believed to promote calmness, balance and positivity.
Best for contouring, lifting, and working out tight muscles.
White Jade
White Jade is a beautiful, translucent white colour. Like Green Jade it is cool to the touch, but it is smoother and more ‘slippery’ than the green variety.
Best for reducing the appearance of puffiness and water retention.
Rose Quartz
Rose Quartz quickly warms to the temperature of your skin and is thought to be particularly beneficial to help with maturing skin.
Best for maturing skin, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Amethyst
Amethyst is loaded with negative ions, giving it anti-inflammatory properties.
Best for calming redness, breakouts or otherwise inflamed skin.
How to use:
Gua Sha stones glide over the skin with the application of a little facial oil – Silvan Skincare facial oils are perfect for this. Also available as our Radiance Gua Sha Facial Set containing 1 x Radiance Face Oil 50ml, 1 x Rose Quartz Gua Sha Stone – in an organic cotton drawstring bag. Includes an instruction postcard to demonstrate Gua Sha Facial Massage sequences to contour and smooth the skin.
If you are taking blood thinning medication you may wish to check that the tool is right for you with your GP first.
