Gua Sha BeautyStone
Keep it flowing
This special BeautyStone has been nominated twice for the BeautyAwards. There is a reason for that :-). The stone is made of jade and fits perfectly in your beauty ritual. By scraping your face, you
promote microcirculation in your face, which nourishes your skin from the inside out. This gives your skin extra nutrition and oxygen, stimulates collagen production and removes waste. At the same time, the active ingredients from your outer SkinFood are better absorbed. It’s a way to slow down the aging process in a natural way. Your skin becomes firmer and you get a natural glow.
Lymph system
The Gua Sha BeautyStone promotes the functioning of your lymphatic system. If your lymphatic system is not working optimally, your face will tell you. There are still too many waste products in your skin, so you can get bags under the eyes, your skin is less firm and it looks pale, gray or puffy.
Your lymphatic system ensures, among other things, that excess fluid and waste products are removed from your body and it plays a role in the defence of infections via white blood cells.
The lymphatic system, similar to the circulatory system, does not have a pump for the ‘flow’ of the lymphatic fluid like the heart. Among other things, movement (e.g. massage, walking and trampoline jumping) ensures that the ‘polluted’ fluid flows to the lymph nodes, so that waste products eventually leave the body via kidneys and intestines.
The lymphatic system is responsible for a large part of the defences in our body and is an essential part of your immune system. Do you want to know more about this? There’s a blog dedicated to the lymphatic system (and what you can do/use to promote it). Click here.
Review
“Another must-have for your face. Take a good look at the video on how to use the stone, but when using it daily you know what feels good for your skin. After applying the cleansing oil, I use the stone as indicated. Great to give your skin an energy boost and to have all waste removed before going to sleep. Another wonderful product. I’m a fan. I’ve stocked up on (almost) all LoÏs Lee products.“
The ritual
It seems complicated at first, but it really isn’t. After a few times you’ll be a pro, promise. You can use the stone in different ways.
1
1
By scraping the sides over your face (always use an oil or moisturiser), you stimulate blood flow.
Scrape from the inside out and in an upward motion. Finally, scrape from your ear down to your collarbone (lymph).

2
Acupressure: You can stimulate the (beauty) acupressure points. Place the stone with the round side on the points and turn half a turn for 3 times.

Caution is advised in acne, rosacea and inflammation. If so, lay the stone flat on the skin. The coolness of the stone removes the ‘heat’ from the skin. As a bonus; it feels wonderful to lay the cold stone over and under tired or swollen eyes.
Review
“Every evening I massage the Magic Moon Serum on my skin with the Beauty Stone. I’ve been doing that since February and I feel like the lines are already softening. And it makes your skin so beautiful.”
