A Black Obsidian Gua Sha is a unique skincare tool made from black obsidian, a volcanic glass believed to have protective and grounding properties. This tool combines traditional Gua Sha massage with the unique qualities of obsidian, known for its ability to retain warmth. Here’s how it benefits the skin:
Deep Relaxation and Tension Relief: The natural warmth of black obsidian helps relax facial muscles, releasing tension in areas like the jawline and forehead.
Promotes Circulation and Detoxification: Regular Gua Sha massage Increase blood flow and lymphatic drainage, removing toxins and bringing a refreshed glow to the skin.
Lifts and Tones: By massaging along the contours of the face, black obsidian Gua Sha can help lift and firm the skin, creating a more sculpted appearance.
Reduces Puffiness and Dark Circles: The gentle scraping motion can reduce puffiness, particularly around the eyes, while the warmth of obsidian enhances lymphatic drainage.
Improves Product Absorption: When used after serums or oils, the Gua Sha tool helps the skin better absorb products, enhancing their effectiveness.
How to Use:
Start with clean skin and apply a facial oil or serum for smoother gliding.
Hold the Gua Sha tool at a 15-degree angle, and use gentle, upward strokes, working from the center of the face outward along the jawline, cheekbones, and forehead.
For added relaxation, warm the tool slightly by placing it in warm water before use.
