The Black Chicken Remedies Black Obsidian Gua Sha is a traditional facial massage tool crafted from Black Obsidian, a naturally warm volcanic stone. This ancient practice, rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, involves gentle scraping motions that help promote lymphatic fluid movement and may help support circulation. When used with your favourite serum or facial oil, this gua sha tool helps promote deeper product penetration while providing a relaxing facial massage experience. The smooth obsidian surface glides effortlessly across the skin, making it easy to incorporate into your daily skincare routine for a more sculpted and contoured appearance.

- Start with a clean face and prep skin with your face serum.
- Follow the Diagram.
- Keep your Gua Sha against your face and begin with the forehead. Scrape in an upward motion from the eyebrows to the hairline.
- Move to the cheeks and scrape in an outwards motion starting from the crease of the nose until the ear.
- Move to the jawline and use the end of the Gua Sha with the V indent. Start from the chin and scrape until the ear. Gently massage the Gua Sha into the ear to release tension.
- Move the Gua Sha in an upward motion on the centre of the neck to relieve sag and in a downward motion on the sides to relieve muscle tension and assist lymphatic drainage.
- For the under-eye area, very gently scrape the Gua Sha from the inner corner of the eye outwards to the temple. Because the area is so sensitive, it is important to only apply light pressure.
- It’s best to anchor the skin where you begin each stroke using your other hand.
Repeat each step above 3-5x and do this facial 2-3 times a week. It is important to go in an upward, outward direction only and press lightly by gliding over your face serum.
Each of these movements massages the lymphatic system, encouraging stagnant toxins to flush, to prevent the appearance of breakout.
Do not use the Black Obsidian Gua Sha if:
- You have just received injected fillers or Botox
- Over cystic acne, pimples and open lesions, as it will only irritate infected areas
