What is facial cupping?
Facial cupping is an ancient practice rooted in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It involves using suction cups on the face to stimulate the skin and muscles for improved circulation and a more radiant and youthful complexion. Facial cupping gently suctions the skin to stimulate blood flow to the area underneath the cup to encourage new blood vessel formation. The results are quite incredible with regular use and is an excellent holistic beauty practice for glowing skin.
According to licensed acupuncturist and facial rejuvenation specialist, Shahla Hashemizad, “Using facial cupping is like going to the gym for your facial muscles. Toning the muscles of the face greatly improves the signs of aging — this includes sagging skin and facial wrinkles.”

What is a facial Gua Sha?
A facial Gua Sha is an ancient Chinese natural therapy over 2,000 years old. A gua sha facial is performed using a smooth stone that lifts and sculpts the face while helping to improve lymphatic drainage for a brighter and healthier complexion. It does a fantastic job at improving circulation to help clear out waste products like blackheads and pimples while lifting and sculpting the face for a more youthful appearance.
There are various holistic beauty tools to choose from and you can choose which gua sha stone you like based on it's health and beauty properties. Stones such as jade, rose quartz, amethyst, and Bian stone are excellent options.
Shahla Hashemizad uses Bian stone in her expert-designed natural beauty kit which has over forty minerals known in Traditional Chinese Medicine for their healing properties and skin rejuvenation. Learn more about Shahla and her natural beauty kit later on in this article.

Which holistic anti-aging beauty tool is right for you?
The Gua Sha is best for regular use, while the facial cupping is more advanced and best used once a week. I suggest starting with the Gua Sha and implementing it into your regular natural beauty routine. Then, work your way up to incorporating facial cupping into your weekly routine.
When should you use facial cupping facial and gua sha?
Facial Gua Sha: I recommend using the facial Gua Sha a minimum of three times per week for the best results. However, if you can squeeze it into your daily routine, it will provide the best results. The facial Gua sha is a great self-care practice and excellent to use in the evening as a way to relax. Apply an anti-aging facial oil on clean, dry skin and use the facial gua sha while watching a movie. You will feel so relaxed and peaceful.
The facial Gua Sha can act as a natural facelift, so it is excellent to use on the day of a big event, so your skin will appear uplifted, contoured, and glowing in all of your photos.
If I have a television appearance or photo shoot, I always use the facial Gua Sha on the morning of the big day so my skin looks healthy and glowing.
Facial Cupping: Since facial cupping is a more advanced natural beauty treatment, it is best used once or twice weekly. Including facial cupping in your weekly routine can help smooth out the muscles and naturally soften the fine lines and wrinkles.
