Gua Sha Crystal

What it is

A flat, pebble shaped crystal that has been used for decades to relax, sculpt and tone your facial muscles. It instantly helps chisel out those cheekbones, reduce under-eye bags and bring out that brightness. 

History 

This modern-day face technique is based on a traditional Chinese healing practice known as Gua Sha. Gua means to stroke, and Sha refers to redness. According to early practitioners, the redness that is obtained by the crystal strokes encourages the skin to heal itself. 

This works well with

All skin types. Should be avoided if you have active acne, sunburns or skin rashes. 

Why it's special

• Improves blood circulation - increases surface micro-circulation  
• Relaxes muscle tension - relaxes stiff facial muscles
