The Black Obsidian Gua Sha Facial Lifting Tool

$30.00  — proud to be Carbon & Plastic Neutral!
/
A breath of calmness in your busy life. A daily ritual, an act of self care.
What it is:
Gua sha has been practiced in Traditional Chinese Medicine for thousands of years. Perfected throughout the centuries, this black obsidian gua sha tool was built to have a firming, lifting effect on the skin.
Unlike the other stones, Black Obsidian naturally retains warmth and is great to use on congested, blemish prone skin. The warmth of the obsidian encourages stimulation of the lymphatic system and circulation. To warm our Black Obsidian tools, we recommend placing them in a glass of warm water.

What it does:
Besides improving overall health and radiance of the skin, gua sha has a multitude of benefits.
  • Promotes lymphatic drainage
  • Reduces puffiness and fluid buildup
  • Relieves facial and jaw tension
  • Aids in circulation to give skin a glow
  • Firms and lifts the face over time
How to use:
- Start with a clean face and prep skin with a facial oil or serum to enhance the glide of the gua sha tool and nourish the skin. We love to pair the gua sha tool with Mount Lai's natural skincare products, which are made from nourishing herbs & plants and designed to pair with our tools. Shop skincare here.
-Keep the tool flat against the face and begin with the forehead. Scrape in an upwards 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 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. Because the area is so sensitive, it is important to only apply light pressure.


Due to natural variations in stone, every gua sha tool is unique in pattern and color. The stones + crystals we use are authentic and natural. We do not artificially dye or treat the stones to let their true beauty shine through.

Use our facial tools and skincare for naturally glowing, radiant skin. Pair different tools together with our skincare to maximize results. We harness ancient beauty secrets with a modern approach to craft gentle yet effective tools and skincare. Our products are easy to use and perfect to add to your everyday ritual.

Beautifying products!!

After the initial use I already felt my face feeling tighter. With continual use I feel little bumps and small wrinkles disappearing. I have the rose quartz roller, jade roller, and obsidian gua sha. The Gua Sha tool is so unique in that when I use it along my cheek towards my ear and down my neck I can feel tension release immediately. My mother, daughter, and I have spa days and use these tools together.

Smooth As SILK!

I had never used a Gua Sha tool before but Google ads kept at me so I gave in. I began to read reviews of different companies and horror stories of people being scratched and cut by inferior craftsmanship. So I was leary to initially use this tool. I opted for the Mount Lai Gua Sha because of the Allure Magazine red stamp. And oh my goodness! It is super smooth, and has such a luxurious feel. It hugs every curve of my face and feels so good...it massages away facial pain I didn't realize I had! It has not one single flaw! It is hard to impress me - but with this Gua Sha tool, I am definitely impressed!

THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE RITUAL

Why It Works

Mount Lai tools are designed to work on the lymphatic system, address adhesions in the fascia and melt tension in the facial and jaw muscles, promoting a radiant complexion + combatting fine lines and wrinkles.

01 / Why is lymphatic drainage important? The lymphatic system is a part of the immune system that helps the body get rid of toxins and waste. ...

02 / The benefits of lymphatic drainage are two-fold. Lymphatic drainage removes toxic and congestive substances from the tissues, which allows greater absorption of nutrients. ...

03 / Why is using a tool better than using your hands? The beauty of Mount Lai tools is that they work on the skin without pulling. As a result, the tool is able to work on the very surface level of the skin to target the lymph system and fascia that you wouldn’t be able to target with your hands. ...
