#gua sha

because your jawline deserves its own fan club

so, gua sha isn’t some tiktok invention. it’s an ancient chinese healing practice originally used for the body to release tension, reduce heat, and move “qi” (life force energy). fast forward, the beauty world stole it (as it does with everything) and now we’re obsessed with the face version.

but here’s the gag: it actually works. like, science supports this. you’re:

• increasing circulation (translation: natural glow, no highlighter needed).

• stimulating lymphatic drainage (bye puffy mornings).

• releasing muscle tension (those clenched jaws and stress lines? we don’t know her).

• creating the illusion of sculpt + lift (contour, but permanent).

the challenge rules

• 21 days. daily. no excuses.

• 5–15 minutes max. keep it consistent.

• clean face + oil/serum (slippery surface = no skin trauma).

• one tool: jade, rose quartz, stainless steel…pick the vibe that speaks to you.

• intention: treat this as ritual, not just routine.

extra rituals to spice it up

• pair with a facial affirmation: while you glide, say “i am radiant, i am magnetic, i am sculpted by the gods.” this is glamour magic

• use different oils for moods: rosehip for glow, squalane for hydration, jojoba for balance.

• take before/after selfies nothing more iconic than seeing your own transformation receipts.

• combine with face yoga for even faster results.

don’ts (because mistakes ruin the vibe)

• don’t press too hard it’s not an exorcism. slow + gentle = results.

• don’t use on broken skin or acne flare-ups.

• don’t skip neck drainage or else puffiness will just reappear.

• don’t expect miracles in 1 day. beauty is in the consistency.
