Southern Jade Gua Sha

Warm-toned jade with soft green and honey veining. Southern jade has a slightly waxier surface than the crystal stones, which means a touch more contact and a touch less slide — closer to how gua sha is traditionally practised. It also warms to your skin quickly rather than staying cold, which some people much prefer.

Best for: warm contact rather than cold therapy.

The three-minute ritual

1. Prep. Clean skin, then a few drops of facial oil or a slippery serum. The stone should glide — if it drags, you need more oil, not more pressure.
2. Sweep. Hold it almost flat against your skin. Work outward from the centre of the face: jaw to ear, cheek to temple, brow to hairline. Three slow passes each side.
3. Finish. Light strokes down the side of the neck toward the collarbone. Rinse, pat dry, done.

Care

Rinse in warm water with a mild soap after each use and dry with a soft cloth. Natural stone, so expect small variations in colour and veining — yours will not look exactly like the photo, and that is rather the point.
