How to Use Gua Sha Stone

Gua sha results are felt immediately and include detoxifying, depuffing, softening fine lines + wrinkles, sculpting facial muscles, brightening skin tone, releasing tension and improving the overall health of the skin. With consistent use (combined with a healthy lifestyle) Facial Gua Sha creates significant and long-term transformation in the skin and overall sense of wellness.

Tool Tips:

  • Divots: Hug bones such as spine, jaw + brow.
  • Smooth edge: Sweep across larger areas of the neck and face.
  • Ridges: Create light friction movements across signs of aging like fine lines and discoloration.

Technique Tips:

  • Prep: Apply Serum/Cream for proper slip and to infuse superfood ingredients even more deeply.
  • Pressure: Always keep pressure super light for lymphatic drainage or medium/firm on areas of tension such as jaw or back of neck.
  • Pull (not push): Use a 15-degree angle (about a finger’s width between skin + stone) and support with opposite hand.
  • Placement: Always start on the neck to open lymphatic drainage pathways, repeat each step 3-5 times and wiggle stone slightly at the end of each step to stimulate flow and release tension. Always work around inflammation or active acne to open pathways of healing to the area.
  • Practice: Benefits build over time so be sure to commit to a daily routine. Even if you’re short on time, focus on the neck to promote lymphatic flow in the face.

Back in the routine!

Hilary M. (5/5)

New to gua sha and am loving it

"At 47, I'm trying new ways to get my face to look more lifted and brightened--less "tired" looking. Already after 3 consecutive days I can see a difference. Not to mention, this is very relaxing and helps me settle into my bed time. I also am loving this for the benefit of "Pushing" my skincare into my skin more at night, I think my skin is liking that."

Amanda M. (5/5)

Beautiful

Q&A

Can you use this gua sha stone for the body?
Hi Deanna, Yes! You can use the Bian Gua Sha Stone on the body. It may not cover as much surface area as a traditional body gua sha stone but you can apply the same method as Body Dry Brushing. Applying light pressure and working towards the heart. We hope this helps! xo, The Pure Team
Should you use an oil or cream before using this tool? What is recommended?
Hi Amanda! We recommend applying Skin-Specific Serum/Cream to clean skin for proper slip and to infuse nutrients more deeply. Hope this helps! xo, The Pure Team
How do I clean the bian stone after each use? Can I sanitize it with alcohol pad?
Hi CL, We recommend spritzing your Gua Sha Stone with our non-toxic Hand Sanitizer or washing with warm + soapy water after each use. Hope this helps! xo, The Pure Team
what is the size of the Bian stone?
Hi Chuanhui, The Bian Gua Sha Stone is about the size of the palm of your hand. We hope this help! xo, The Pure Team
What is the specific differences between this Bian Gua stone and your jade gua stone. A comparison chart would be helpful!
Hi Kristin, Great question! We consider our original jade Gua Sha Stone to be our beginner stone. For those who are comfortable with their gua sha practice and want to take it to the next level, we suggest trying the Bian Gua Sha. This Gua Sha has additional trace elements and a negative ion charge, as well as more sides to more finely tailor your experience. XO, The Pure Team
