Mastering the Art of Facial Rollers & Gua Sha
Embrace the ancient secrets of beauty with modern tools by mastering the Dual-End Facial Roller and Gua Sha. These skincare tools not only enhance your beauty routine but also promote relaxation, improve skin health, and offer a myriad of other benefits. In this guide, we’ll walk you through detailed steps on how to use each tool effectively to maximize their benefits.
How To Use: Dual-End Facial Roller
Start with a clean face and apply your favorite serum or moisturizer to help the roller glide smoothly and to boost product absorption. Use gentle but firm strokes and repeat 5-6 times. After using your facial roller, clean it with a mild soap and warm water, then pat it dry to ensure it remains hygienic and in good condition. Store it in a cool, dry place or in the refrigerator for an extra cooling effect for your next use.
Use the larger roller for your cheeks, jawline, and forehead. Start at the center of your face and roll outwards towards your ears.Â
- Forehead: Begin at the middle of your forehead and roll outward towards your temples. Use gentle upward strokes to help smooth lines and relieve tension.
- Cheeks and Jawline: Start at your chin and roll out towards your ear along your jawline, then move up to your cheeks. Use the roller in sweeping motions from the center of your face, out past your cheeks. This helps with lymphatic drainage and reducing puffiness.
- Neck: Use the roller on your neck by starting at the base and rolling upwards towards the jawline. This encourages lymph flow and helps detoxify the area.
The smaller roller is perfect for more delicate areas such as under your eyes and the eyebrow area.Â
- Under-Eye Area: Carefully place the small roller near the inner corner of your eye, and gently roll out towards the outer corner. The delicate pressure can reduce under-eye bags and help prevent fine lines.
- Nose and Lips: Use the smaller roller to go over and around your nose to help with sinus issues. You can also gently roll over your lips to boost blood flow and even enhance their natural color.
- Eyebrows: Roll sideways along the brow bone, starting from the center outwards.

How To Use: Gua Sha
Begin with a cleansed face and apply a facial oil or serum to ensure the Gua Sha stone glides smoothly over your skin, enhancing the massage and preventing any pulling or tugging. While using gua sha, maintain a gentle but firm pressure—enough to feel therapeutic but not so much that it causes discomfort. Repeat each stroke 5-8 times to effectively boost circulation and lymphatic drainage, vital for achieving optimal results.
Use this edge along your jawline and cheeks for broad, sweeping strokes that lift and contour. Start near the center of your chin, and scrape up to the ear, following the line of your jaw. Then, use the same motion from the corner of your mouth up to the middle of your ear to contour the cheeks.
This side is ideal for more delicate areas around the eyes. Gently use it under the eyes and over the eyelids to reduce puffiness and fine lines by moving from the inner corner outward toward the temple.
This versatile shape fits snugly against the contours of your nose and neck. Use it from the nose bridge out towards your cheeks to relieve sinus pressure and promote lymphatic drainage. For the neck, scrape gently from the base upwards toward the jawline to enhance detoxification and reduce swelling.
Ideal for smaller, more precise areas like the temples, around the eyebrows, and along the jawline. Use this edge to perform gentle, circular motions at the temples to relieve stress or headache symptoms, and smooth strokes along the eyebrows and jawline to ease tension and refine appearance.
