A How To Guide is included with your purchase.

Facial Cupping is an alternative therapy that uses suction cups to stimulate your skin and muscles. The suction promotes increased blood circulation, which may help relieve muscle tension, promote cell repair, and aid in other regeneration. It’s also said to improve the flow of your “qi”. Qi is a Chinese word meaning life force or flow. The practice is deeply ingrained in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Facial cups are typically silicone-derived and are small and soft. They’re used to gently pull the skin away from deeper layers of fascia. The suction effect pulls blood into the area of skin underneath the cup. This saturates the surrounding tissue with fresh blood and promotes new blood vessel formation.

Description

The vacuum-like suction separates different layers of tissues, resulting in a trigger and inflammatory response, flooding the area with white blood cells, platelets, and other healing aids. Facial cupping has been shown to increase oxygen-rich blood circulation and strengthen skin and connective tissues. It stimulates cells responsible for collagen production. It relaxes muscle tension.

The practice is said to:

  • brighten skin
  • minimise the appearance of scars, fine lines, and wrinkles
  • tone chin, jawline, neck, and décolletage
  • decrease puffiness
  • regulate oil production
  • improve nutrient delivery and product absorption

The smaller cup work best on sensitive areas, including under your eyes, eyebrows, along your nose ,T-zone, and around your mouth. The larger cup works best on larger areas of skin, such as your forehead, cheeks, and along your jaw.

HOW TO USE

  • Always apply enough oil for glide.
  • Keep the cups moving always to avoid bruising.
  • Avoid using over inflamed, thin, delicate or compromised skin.
  • Best used 2/3 evenings a week at the end of your skincare regime.
