"I've had many gua sha from massage therapists who bring them from China, and this one is very impressive. You feel it working even with the lightest pressure as the stone has strong energy."
Contour, lift, and give your skin the glow it deserves with Velvette’s Gua Sha for Facial Massage! The first Gua Sha on the market to feature a scooped edge, this revolutionary scraper is effective at sculpting and targeting hard-to-reach areas of the face and neck. This patented tool is handcrafted from luxurious, natural, healing Bian stone and designed by founders with Chinese roots.
Gua Sha, an ancient Chinese beauty ritual, has stood the test of time for its remarkable ability to sculpt, lift, and rejuvenate the face.
This technique involves gently scraping a smooth-edged tool across the skin, promoting circulation and stimulating the body's natural healing processes.
By encouraging lymphatic drainage and reducing puffiness, Gua Sha helps to sculpt facial contours, diminish fine lines, and restore a radiant complexion.
More than just a skincare routine, it's a holistic practice that nurtures both inner and outer beauty, leaving you feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and in harmony with your skin.
Each Gua Sha plate is crafted from the opulent Bian stone, which formed over 65 million years ago when a meteor collided with a mountain in ancient China.
This extraordinary stone, known for its dense composition of over 40 minerals and trace elements, has been revered since antiquity for its remarkable properties.
The use of Bian stone as a healing technique dates back to the 3rd millennium BCE. Bian stone therapy is one of the first of four techniques in Huang Di Nei Jing (黃帝內經), the most important ancient text that has been treated as a fundamental doctrine source for Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Bian stone's historical significance lies not only in its age but also in its ability to emit ultrasonic pulses, far-infrared waves, and negative ions. These natural phenomena, recognized for their anti-aging and health benefits, have been harnessed by generations past for healing and rejuvenation.
Using a face oil with Gua Sha serves several important purposes. Firstly, applying a face oil before using the Gua Sha tool reduces friction during the scraping motion, preventing unnecessary tugging or pulling on the skin. This helps ensure a smoother and more comfortable experience. Additionally, the presence of the face oil allows the Gua Sha tool to glide more effortlessly across the skin, facilitating a more fluid and effective movement.
Moreover, combining Gua Sha with face oils enhances the penetration of the oil's nourishing ingredients into the skin. The scraping action of the Gua Sha tool promotes better circulation and lymphatic drainage, which in turn helps to improve the absorption of the face oil's moisturizing and rejuvenating properties. This synergistic approach not only boosts hydration but also promotes healthier, more radiant-looking skin.

GUA SHA FOR FACIAL MASSAGE
Growing up as a Chinese-Canadian girl, staying connected to my cultural heritage was always important to me.
Gua Sha, an ancient Chinese beauty tool passed down by my parents, quickly became a cherished part of my daily routine. For my sister Jenny and me, Gua Sha isn't just about skincare — it's a meaningful reminder to prioritize self-care and honor our roots.
However, our journey to find the perfect Gua Sha wasn't without its challenges. Many tools on the market lacked the quality we desired, often featuring sharp micro edges that left our skin feeling irritated.
Determined to elevate our Gua Sha experience, Jenny and I embarked on a mission to create something truly exceptional. After months of painstaking design and experimentation, we crafted a Gua Sha with a patented scoop edge, specifically engineered to contour the cheekbones for maximum sculpting and lift. - Joyce

Scrape at a 45 degree angle for best results.
Use just enough pressure to feel relief, but not so much that you leave marks all over your skin. The scraping motion will leave your skin a bit red and flushed due to the increased circulation, but it should subside within minutes.
Avoid scraping over any open wounds, and only scrape once the wound has healed fully.
This is all up to you! Some people use the Gua Sha only a few seconds a day to massage a few trouble spots, and some people like to use it for long thirty minute massage sessions.
Yes! Our Gua Sha come with a reusable velvet pouch bag.
After you are done your massage, wash the Gua Sha with soap and water, and dry it off with a towel. Place the Gua Sha back in the velvet pouch that it came with and store in a safe place.
Do not use your Gua Sha if it is chipped or broken. Our Gua Sha is made of delicate Bian Stone, so take care not to drop it on hard surfaces and always store it in the velvet protective pouch that it came with when not in use.
