Redheads, you may have seen celebs and influencers rubbing these oddly shaped stones on their faces. This is actually an ancient Chinese beauty and health practice called Gua Sha. Here’s everything you need to know about gua sha, and how your redhead skin can benefit from incorporating it into your everyday skincare routine.
What is a Gua Sha tool?
These specifically shaped tools are typically made up of semi-precious stones like jade or rose quartz. They are carved in a way that allows them to have a place to hold onto as well as a firm, flat surface. The stone is pressed into the face in a gentle upward motion.
How do you use it?
Each gua sha tool will have its own directions for use, but the upward, outward motion is the most important part of any technique. The results are said to be lifted eyebrows, reducing fine lines, smoothing of wrinkles, etc.
Why is Gua Sha so popular?
This ancient tradition has been around for centuries but recently became popular in mainstream American beauty and wellness communities. As social media and the internet become more and more saturated with those looking for beauty tips, the sharing of wellness practices has never been easier. This, coupled with a rise in self-care and at-home beauty, has brought gua aha to the front of the American beauty industry.
