The S Shape Bianstone Facial Scraper, also known as a S Shape Bian ston Guasha scraping board, is a tool used in traditional Chinese medicine and modern skincare routines for its potential benefits to the skin and facial muscles. Here's how to use an S Shape Bianstone Facial Scraper:
Prepare Your Skin: Start with a clean face, free of makeup and impurities. You may choose to apply a facial oil or serum to enhance the glide of the scraper and to allow the product to penetrate deeper into the skin.
Warm Up the Tool: Hold the scraper in your hand for a few moments to warm it up slightly. Some people prefer to chill their tools in the fridge before use, especially if they're looking to reduce puffiness. Or you can warm up under the sunlight for a little while before use.
Scraping Technique: Hold the scraper gently at about a 15-degree angle to your face. Using light to medium pressure, start scraping from the center of your face outward and upward, following the natural contours of your face. The 'S' shape design allows it to fit comfortably around the curves of your face.
Begin at the chin, scraping upwards towards the ears.
Move to the sides of the nose, scraping outwards towards the temples.
From the middle of the forehead, scrape outwards towards the hairline.
Don't forget the neck; scrape downwards from the base of the neck towards the collarbone.
Repeat Strokes: Each area can be scraped around 5-10 times. The key is to be gentle and consistent, avoiding any pulling or tugging on the skin.
Pressure Points: You can also lightly press the scraper on certain pressure points to help release tension. For example, the temples, jawline, and between the eyebrows.
Aftercare: Once you've completed the scraping, you may notice slight redness, which is common and referred to as "sha" in traditional Chinese medicine. This should fade within a few hours. Finish by applying a moisturizer to hydrate your skin.
Cleaning: Clean your facial scraper thoroughly after each use with clean running water to maintain hygiene. Activate the stone under the sunlight whenever there is enough sunshine.
Remember, while the S Shape Bianstone Facial Scraper can promote blood circulation, lymphatic drainage, and relaxation, it's essential to listen to your body. If you experience any discomfort or irritation, discontinue use. It's always a good idea to consult with a skincare professional or a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine for personalized advice, if there is any doubt.
