Glowell, Serenity Stone: Amethyst, Gua Sha

Before you begin, ensure you have cleaned your hands, face, and Amethyst Gua Sha.

Apply a product to help create a smooth glide for the Gua Sha. Use either the Peppermint Potion, our Moisturizing Milk, or a facial oil of your choice.

Choose the right angle, ideally, the Gua Sha tool should be held at a 30-45-degree angle.

In terms of strokes, generally one must apply gentle to firm pressure with upward strokes following the lymphatic drainage.

Here are some common areas for facial gua sha: Jawline and chin: Glide upwards from the center of the chin towards the earlobe. Cheeks: Start at the nose and sweep outwards and upwards towards the temples. Forehead: Begin in the center and work outwards in sections towards the hairline. Neck: Start at the collarbone and sweep upwards towards the jawline.

General tips: Perform each stroke 3-5 times on each side. Avoid applying too much pressure, which can cause bruising. Focus on relaxing your facial muscles as you perform the gua sha strokes.
