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 tool with the two curves. Start from the chin and scrape until the ear. Gently massage the gua sha tool into the ear to release tension. For the under-eye area, very gently scrape the gua sha tool from the inner corner of the eye outwards to the temple.
