If you already know the benefits of Healthy Gua-Sha , now you need to know the tips that will help you achieve better results. (If you still don't know its benefits, I recommend you take a look at the Blog Benefits of Healthy Gua Sha)

With it we are going to perform a self-care massage, you can do it in the morning or at night, as you prefer.


If you feel that your skin is very congested and inflamed in the morning, you can perform a massage using gentle movements and pumps to drain the area and show more unified skin and reduce inflammation, which can generally occur in the area around the eyes.


At night, you can alternate between a draining massage to mobilize and purify all toxins and a firming massage to activate microcirculation, collagen and elastin. This way, your skin will have an optimal cellular regeneration process.

In both cases it is always important to:

  1. May your skin be clean and toned.
  1. Work on the neck first , as this is the area where the main lymphatic cistern is located, which is responsible for eliminating toxins and purifying our body.
  1. Pair it with a product that helps you glide, work smoothly and provides nutrients to your skin. Some of my favorites are:
  • Dulkamara Revitalizing Oil , ideal for all skin types, especially more mature skin.
    With antioxidant and rejuvenating properties. Rich in fatty acids (omegas), it deeply moisturizes and nourishes, tones and rejuvenates the skin. Contains Centella Asiatica that stimulates collagen synthesis, makes the tissue flexible and elastic, preventing signs of aging and wrinkles.
  • Firming Face Oil by Sublime Oils , ideal for dehydrated skin, prone to wrinkles and sagging. Nourishing oil highly concentrated in firming, regenerating and antioxidant active ingredients, Vitamins E and C, formulated to firm and improve skin elasticity. Boosting collagen and elastin synthesis, helping to improve skin firmness and turgor, regenerating tissue, with a tightening and redensifying effect.
  • Antioxidant Face Oil by Sublime Oils , ideal for combination, dull, lackluster skin with blemishes. Intensive facial oil concentrated in antioxidants. It has an extraordinary capacity to block the emission of free radicals and protect cellular DNA against pollution and environmental stress, causing premature skin aging and cumulative damage. Reduces wrinkles and expression lines, improves skin texture and flexibility. Renews and regenerates damaged skin, accelerating healing processes. Provides the hydrolipidic balance necessary to strengthen the skin's protective barrier function, reducing transepidermal water loss.
  • R3 Protect Oil by Esse , ideal for sensitive and dehydrated skin.
    An oil rich in anti-inflammatory and repairing active ingredients. It provides extra nutrition and hydration to your skin.
    Its properties create a protective shield that defends the skin from environmental stressors, such as pollution and climate change.
  1. After the massage, continue with your daily routine until the end. If you have oily skin, you may feel that the massage oil will make your skin feel ready and perfect, in which case it is not necessary to continue applying any product.
  1. Elevate your self-care to make it a habit.
    Place a drop of your favorite essential oil in the palm of your hand, rub it between your hands and inhale deeply for 60 seconds.
    My favorites are: Lavender, Incense and Geranium.

 

Finally, it is very important to clean and store your Gua-Sha after each use , to avoid any product residue left on it. It's as simple as applying a natural soap and mineral water.

And take care of yourself with Helthy Gua-Sha, with your hands, with natural cosmetics, practice yoga, meditate, go out into nature and be thankful for every wrinkle and experience that life gives you.

Enhance your beauty with your heart!
