- don’t use the gua sha on bare skin.
- start from your chest, neck to face, repeating each upwards motion 5 times.

Amid Gua Sha
- you can use a cleaning oil or cleaning balm as a lubricant for using the tool.
- always work upwards and towards the lymph nodes.
- use the largest plain of the tool on your neck and cheeks.
- when using the tool on your forehead, do upwards movements and horizontal movements, never downwards.

- using gua sha tool on either side of your cheekbone.
- using enough pressure that you feel you’re working your face muscles, but not so much that it hurts.
