Frequently Asked Questions

What is facial Gua Sha?
Facial Gua Sha is a traditional massage technique that uses a smooth stone tool to gently glide across the skin in sculpting strokes.

Rooted in ancient East Asian practices, modern facial Gua Sha focuses on encouraging healthy-looking circulation, releasing facial tension, and supporting a lifted, radiant appearance. When performed consistently, it helps enhance skin’s natural vitality and glow.
What are the benefits of facial Gua Sha?
Facial Gua Sha helps:

• Encourage healthy-looking circulation
• Reduce the appearance of puffiness
• Relieve facial tension
• Support smoother-looking contours
• Enhance visible luminosity

Immediately after use, skin may appear lightly flushed and refreshed. With consistent practice, the complexion appears more sculpted, toned, and balanced over time.
What makes obsidian ideal for Gua Sha?
Obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass formed from rapidly cooled lava. Its smooth, dense surface makes it well suited for controlled, glide-focused massage techniques.

Traditionally associated with grounding properties, obsidian is prized for its durability and elegant, sculptural weight, making it an exceptional material for facial massage rituals.
How do I hold my Gua Sha stone?
Hold the clean stone at approximately a 15° angle against the skin. Support the tool with your thumb underneath and fingers resting gently on top, allowing it to glide without dragging.
How much pressure should I use?
Pressure should always be gentle and controlled. The strokes should never feel painful.

Temporary flushing may occur and typically subsides within minutes.
How quickly will I see results?
Skin often appears more refreshed and luminous immediately after use. Puffiness may appear reduced and facial contours more defined.

With consistent practice, skin appears smoother and more sculpted over time.
When and how often should I use Gua Sha?
Gua Sha may be performed in the morning, evening, or whenever you want a restorative ritual.

For best results, practice at least three times per week. Daily use is encouraged, but once per day is sufficient.
Where can I use Gua Sha?
Facial Gua Sha is most commonly performed on the face and neck. The tool may also be used on the body or scalp with appropriate glide and technique.
What skincare should I use with Gua Sha?
Always begin with cleansed skin and a clean stone.

Apply a serum followed by a nourishing oil or balm to provide adequate slip. The tool should glide smoothly across the skin without pulling.

For optimal glide, pair with Biphase Moisturizing Oil or Replenishing Balm to ensure a smooth, uninterrupted stroke.
Can I use Gua Sha around the eyes?
Yes, with light pressure and proper glide.

After applying eye cream, use gentle sweeping motions under the eyes and along the brow bone. Movements should be slow and controlled, avoiding excessive pressure.
When should I avoid Gua Sha?
Do not use Gua Sha over open wounds, active irritation, or areas of discomfort.

If you are prone to broken capillaries, consult a skincare professional before incorporating facial massage into your routine.
How do I clean my Gua Sha stone?
Clean your stone before each use with warm water and a gentle cleanser. Pat dry thoroughly before storing.
