Gua Sha Facial Tool

HOW TO USE
There is not a one-size-fits all approach to a gua sha practice, but rather finding what you want the tool to do for you. Our recommendation is, to begin with this starter routine for the benefits above.

• 1. Clean and moisturize skin.
• 2. Apply a layer of Willing Beauty’s Born to Glow Skin Elixir.
• 3. Reference the guide below to use different sections of the gua sha tool for different areas of your face.
  • a. Hold the stone at a slight angle, almost parallel to the skin.
  • b. Anchor skin with the opposite hand and move in gentle strokes with light pressure.
  • c. Apply 3-5 strokes in each area.
• 4. Start by breathing deeply and warming up the outer sides of the neck with very light up and down strokes. This opens the pathway for drainage.
• 5. Use downward strokes starting behind your jawbone and down your neck.
• 6. Next, move along your jawline.
• 7. Next, start at the center of your face and sweep your cheeks outward.
• 8. Then, move to under eye area out toward your temples.
• 9. Then, move to your eyebrows and forehead.
• 10. Depending on your gua sha goals use the comb edge to lightly ‘erase’ forehead wrinkles in a perpendicular motion, or use the pointed end for tension relief.
• 11. Drink lots of water after the massage. It will help get rid of the toxins.
• 12. For best results, use 3x a week or up to one time per day.

Before and after each use, use gentle soap to wash the stone. Use the included canvas tote for storage.

Be careful – this natural stone is fragile when dropped on a hard surface! We recommend placing a small towel over your sink when you practice gua sha.
