Frequently asked questions

How often should I use the Gua Sha?

We recommend using the Gua Sha two to three times a week for glowing results.

What stone is the Gua Sha made from?

Blue sodalite, a cool-to-the-touch crystal believed to promote inner peace.

How do I clean and care for my Gua Sha?

After each use, clean the Gua Sha with a damp cloth and store it in the pouch provided.

Is the Gua Sha safe for all skin types?

If you have sensitive skin or specific skin conditions, it's important to use gentle pressure and avoid affected areas whenever possible. For all skin types, always pair your Gua Sha with a facial oil or serum to ensure smooth gliding and to prevent tugging or irritation.

Will it bruise my skin?

Using the Gua Sha shouldn't cause any bruising if used correctly, with a gentle pressure. To ensure a smooth glide and minimise any risk of bruising, we recommend pairing the Gua Sha with an oil-based cleanser or facial oil – such as our Frankincense Intense™ Triple Action Melting Cleanser or Rejuvenating Frankincense Facial Oil.

What is a Gua Sha and how do you use it?

The Gua Sha is a skincare tool that elevates your self-care ritual by gently stimulating and sculpting the skin. More than just a beauty practice, using a Gua Sha offers a mindful moment to pause, reconnect, and care for yourself.

Please refer to the packaging for full directions. For optimal results, apply a facial oil beforehand to allow the tool to glide smoothly across the skin.

What do the different sides of the Gua Sha do and where should they be used?

Use the ridged edge to massage the forehead in upward strokes toward the scalp, stimulating circulation and smoothing fine lines. The heart-shaped edge glides along the jawline and cheekbones to sculpt and define your features. Finally, the curved edge sweeps gently along the cheeks and down the neck, promoting lymphatic drainage and enhancing skin tone.

What are the best tips for using the Gua Sha?

After cleansing, apply a few drops of serum or facial oil to your face and neck. Gently repeat each stroke five to ten times. Use light to medium pressure two to three times a week for glowing results. We recommend pairing our Gua Sha with an oil-based cleanser or facial oil – such as our Frankincense Intense™ Triple Action Melting Cleanser, Wild Rose Beauty Balm or Rejuvenating Frankincense Facial Oil.

Can I store the Gua Sha in the fridge or freezer?

For a refreshing, cooling experience, your Gua Sha can be stored in the fridge.

We do not recommend storing your Gua Sha in the freezer for any length of time as this may cause the stone to crack.

Is Gua Sha safe for use during pregnancy?

We do not recommend using Gua Sha on the face or body during pregnancy.

Crystal Sculpt Gua Sha

I recently bought Crystal Sculpt Gua Sha and was okrasany surprised. It is the best gua sha I ever had. It's slightly larger in size compared to majority of other devices, very sleek, stays colder (doesn't warm up as quickly) which is pleasantly refreshing. Great device. I'm using it every day

The crystal shapes the face nicely and helps define the jawline and lift it. It's a great tool to use.

Crystal sculpt Gua Sha

I bought this Gua Sha after reading a review in a magazine. After using it for only 2 weeks I can honestly say that my skin feels softer, it looks firmer. My jaw line is more contoured. I love it! I struggle with headaches and blocked sinuses and this marvellous tool is helping with that too. The Gua Sha is cooling on my skin. The rose oil I bought to use with it smells divine and is seriously hydrating on my skin. I love my products.

Wonderful addition to facial care and relaxation all in one

This is one of the best items I’ve used for my facial care routine
It helps relax, it feels lovely, is easy to use, very versatile. And pair it with your favourite moisturiser and a drop of facial oil to provide the most benefit. Worth the price. Both my daughter and I use ours most days, so good that I bought one each!

Beautiful but not for me

This Gua Sha is beautifully made and the stone used equally special.
However, it wasn’t for me, but that’s a personal choice. Definitely worth a try.

Great size

The stone is larger than any other gua sha I’ve used before and is more effective because of its design - plus the serrated edge helps with flow

Bigger, and better for it.

I bought this to replace my last Gua Sha stone, which I dropped and broke. It is quite a bit bigger and heavier than the last one but I like that now. It’s a great shape to hold and feels good on my skin. I’m happy I bought it.

Lovely product

I've been really enjoying using the gua sha so far. It feels really luxurious and is such a treat to use in the evening with my moisturiser. I will carry on using every day and hopefully see results soon. Glad I purchased this
