Massage therapist here, when you pull up the back of your neck all the way to the base of your skull and apply gentle pressure or "wiggle" you are helping to relax the facia in those areas, it can cause a "melting" effect, total relaxation 😊
Good to know!
WOW!!! It's been two weeks and the difference is incredible. My jowls are pretty much gone. The folds are still there but softened and the conters of my face... WOW!!! This is absolutely a game changer for me. Thank you so much for this video.
You've inspired me restart my Gua Sha routine. Thank you, Lisa!
For anyone who cares, I got rid of my acne with Mary Kay #3 cleanser and toner back when i was younger, but still need it sometimes. Its the old formula in pink and white packaging...
It must be so relaxing to have someone else do it for you while laying down 😊
Mine just came in the Amazon delivery! Did my first “treatment” and my face is buzzing happily. Took a “Day 1 photo” too. We shall see.
I have one of these in a kit that I purchased with my jade roller. I had no idea what it was called and how to use it! This video is helpful and I know exactly what to do with it. Your skin looks so radiant and firm. Gotta try this tool. Now I need to find it in my bathroom!
😂😂😂
Same here!!!!😂 I'm going to practice today!!
Great video Lisa. So informative & you did a great demo as well! You inspired me to get mine out & start being more consistent! Thanks sweet lady!
hello beautiful how are you doing today I hope you are having nice day off do tell me how is health and work, how is the weather over there,if I may ask do you mind if we can be friends?
I enjoy the routine and have been using gua sha for about a year. I see no difference but it is relaxing .
I believe that the wiggle is to encourage the lymphatic drainage , helps spreads the tension quicker
Thank you Catalina 💕💕💕
I have the steel gua sha and agree it’s possibly a better choice than the stone. I’ve tried both and think the steel is smoother. I just need to be disciplined & consistent to see the difference. 👍🏼
That looks like it would be so soothing and relaxing. I use a rose quartz roller (when I think of it) and that feels great!
I've got a rose quartz gua sha and roller set and it works. I'm not so puffy and it makes me relax.

@@lukebyran085 It's a cool day here today. I'm staying in bed today because of flu and the cold makes my arthritis pain worse. I usually don't chat due to time and my chronic illness I struggle.
How are you?
@@BetsAnderson oh feel so sorry for you dear,am fine dear do tell me what time is it over there!!
Hello beautiful
Its great that you don’t claim that this is the holy grail and that you’re not the expert on the technique. I watched so many videos of people who are not experts and giving out advice like they were. Thx for sharing your thoughts on this!
In a gua sha demo by Laura Rae Beauty, she says the wiggle is to encourage lymphatic drainage. Thanks for the demo. I really need to get a tool.
Yeah I love Gua Sha.. I often forget to do it.. But then I've been stressed or tired for a while and I see it in my face, I pick up my jade and rose quartz scrapers, use them for a few days and things rapidly improve every time. I use nothing but organic coconut oil. My skin is super sensitive and can't handle any perfumed products because it will break out. The coconut oil is clean and gets absorbed by the skin completely so I can do my gua sha routine and just gently massage any remainder of oil in afterwards.. To do a real good job I like to finnish with the "Tanaka self- massage" which is a face contouring/ lymphatic drainage massage you can also find here on UA-cam. That one you just do with your hands and is just a wonderfully relaxing way to do an extra good job on those rainy days when we need some extra self- love.. Cheers!
Just found you & subscribed! I love how genuine and down to Earth you are. Thanks for such great info! ☺️
Your channel came up on my suggestions of videos and I’m so glad I watched you. You are so easy to listen to and have great tips.
Thank you so much Joan!! 🍁🍁🍂🍁💕
Same here ☺️
Excellent demonstration on how to work with the Gua Sha tool. I use mine everyday, I find it reduces my puffiness around the eyes due to allergies 🤧, and it also helps with the strain in my neck, helps to slim my face and like to believe forms and firms it. Thank you for sharing 😌😀
YES!! And I find it it just feels so good!! I will sit around and sometimes just want to go use my Gua Sha because I feel like I need that facial massage ☺️ 🍁🍂🍁💕🍁🍂
I do a form of this in the mornings in the bath using my fingers to stimulate sinus drainage. I have been deliberating on getting a tool. The tool that you are using looks large, but I guess you get used to it after a while. I can see the benefits of doing this. Thank you! Expect “Even Greater Things,” in 2021!

If you find that you are swallowing, you are doing it correctly (light-medium touch along the jaw and sinus area) lymphatic fluid is moving and draining into the lymph nodes.
Very good! I have been watching a few on Japanese yoga for the face as well. I did this with my fingers alone as I have no tool unless I break out a fork lol but it felt very nice. Thank you!! ~~Chanel
the wiggle is to remove tension I too am mature and I enjoyed your video. I just recieved my stainless steel too and so far so good
I believe when they are doing the 11 lines and going straight out there using a slightly different to it's a bit flattered more squared-off
That jaw muscle you said feels really good at like 12:20 look up videos for Korugi - there is a part where you put your fists under your cheekbone and there is so much release that at first it is intense. but I feel like you might like Korugi a lot as an addition
Yes! I did try facial massage a few years ago and don't remember much, but I do remember pushing my fists up under the bone felt soooooo good...I'm doing it right now again, lol. I will look up Korungi, thank you!
Thank you - I think this is the clearest illustration I have seem!
Thank you Lisa! I want to try this! It seems like similar motions that are in the NuFace instructions, which would make sense!
I Love This❣️ Never seen anything like this so thank you
I was doing this but I wasn't using resistance, I'll try that now,you can also get wooden ones.
Your funny and so real thank you for all the information, I’m going to start using mine again , have a great day 👍
I got my tools out and you do it so well, maybe I will continue with mine after watching you🌹
Love this idea! I think I can use my rose quartz palm stone.
Yes you can! 💕💕💕
Enjoy all your videos. U do a great job. Want to try this. Thx
Thank you so much for this video. I will surely try this technique. Take care.
I too have watched so many Gua Sha videos and I think you did a excellent job.👏.
Thank you Theresa 💕💕💕
I’m glad I came across your channel. Thank you!
Thank you Lisa I think I should try it for myself I hope it will be good.
I need to get into a more regular routine with my Gua Sha tool.
I love facial massage … I use my Nuface to achieve this but a guasha is MUCH more cost effective lol
I didn’t think about that, yes it is similar strokes 💕💕💕
This was such an interesting video.
Thank you for this video. So helpful.
Do you do this twice a day? You responded to a comment that you do this 3-4 times a week?
I’d say 1-2 times a week now, lol. I’m not as disciplined, but boy when I do it, I keep saying I need to do it more often!
The wiggle at the end is to release tension. Hope this helps.
Do you have a video for the cankles?
I really like enjoyed this video,
What else do you use on your neck daily, it looks great
I just pull my needleless serum and moisturizer down my neck, and my AHA products, but not my retinol.
I’ve done no research so I know nothing about this but It seems counterintuitive to me to push fluids(?) up from your neck into your face instead of down and out. 🤔
I have no idea how the lymphs drain so I can't give a good answer, lol. But that's why I do the final forehead to shoulder downward sweep at the end, it feels so good too!!!
I’m wondering if anyone else is or has experienced an extremely stiff neck after using the Gua sha the first couple of times? My neck has been extremely sore and very stiff after using it. Can’t help but wonder what’s causing it.
Hmmm, it could be the toxins aren’t releasing. if it goes continues, I’d definitely stop and maybe mention it to a health professional to see if there is any significance.
Yes this actually happened to me the other day. It was my first time doing this..I think it’s just moving toxins around as it went away in 2 days
Thank you
The Demo starts at 5:23
I know many Asian ladies shave their faces regularly,as do I,but have only recently heard of this.
I LOVE shaving my face, it feels so buttery soft afterwards!!!!
hello beautiful how are you doing today I hope you are having nice day off do tell me how is health and work, how is the weather over there,if I may ask do you mind if we can be friends?
If it doesn’t work in the long run, than why use it? Maybe I misunderstood ❤️ maybe I don’t understand what massaging does, besides drainage.
Massage can increases blood circulation which can reduce tension, stimulate collagen and elastin production, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles….it’s a temporary reduction of puffiness. And it feels good! Pretty much like a back massage!
I may have missed it....did you mention how often you should do the Gua Sha routine? Thank you!
You can do it daily, but I do 3-4 times a week.
@@LisaMonique Thank you, Lisa! I also enjoyed your Target tag video. Visiting from Tamara and will subscribe to your channel.
Lisa: Thank you for the demonstration. Facial massage and facial exercises kept my face in excellent condition; as well as diet and routine exercise. However, after following facial exercise techniques suggested, I damaged the area on each side of my mouth. However, exercising all other areas of the face, very beneficial in keeping skin taunt, miscle tone, and facial definition.
What is your opinion on facial exercise?
I heard good things about them but have not tried them personally. How did it damage the sides of your mouth?
I know it's been a year, but I would really like to know how you damaged the sides of your face. I have been doing facial exercises, too, and can relate to what you say.
Hi there, I’m new to your channel and love it. Can I ask how often is it recommended that you do this massage. Thanks
You can do it daily, however, I'm not that disciplined....I do it 3-4 times a week, usually when watching TV at night....
Do you follow this with a moisturizer?
I usually wash the oil off and follow with my regular skincare. I did try and leave oil on but i was getting little bumps.
Good Morning Lisa :) I'm so glad you made this video - I too recently started using a Gua Sha, however was unsure if I was doing it correctly but after watching your video looks like I am (lol). Though the instructional video I happen to watch on gua sha suggested you should start from your forehead and work your way down - not sure if this makes a difference. I do have a question for you - have you heard of face cupping? I recently ordered these face cups on amazon however hesitant in using them - apparently they are to improve collagen in your skin - much like gua sha you apply oil on your face and squeeze the tops of the cups for suction then quickly move the cup outwards. I would really love your opinion on this before I proceed. Have a great day!
I have not tried cupping so I can’t advise, I’m so sorry! I have heard a couple of different ways to do the Gua Sha, I just picked the one that I thought had the best sounding credentials, 😂
Hi...at what step would you add this to your night time skin routine ie I also use retinol and then moisturiser so would you do this before that? Thank you
I do after my serums but before my moisturizer because my serums give my skin the "slip" I need but I don't feel like I'm scraping off my moisturizer! So I wash, put on retinol, then serums (I've been using a ceramide capsule by Beauty Pie), Gua She, then moisturize.
@lisa Monique beauty, I have never considered Gua Sha, as I wasn’t sure how to use it. I do a lot of Indian face/head massage on friends and my kids as I also do Reiki healing (I’m of South Asian descent) and I can see how I could incorporate this in with those techniques.
I’m aware that I’m a little late to the party so to speak, but I only recently started wearing makeup and am currently playing “catch up” on the tutorials, so I’m a new subscriber but I do love your videos as they are very clear.
I actually started out watching another lady, but her videos were hard for me to properly understand and then I saw a different lady who said she was trying this lady’s techniques so watched that video and understood it perfectly, so a tutorial of the tutorial if you like!
Thank you for making your tutorials easy to follow!
I love some of the products that you use but can’t actually get them all in my country, unfortunately but still, I can look for “dupes”.
Thank you again from a makeup beginner ❣️
Thank you for being here! Yes any of these tutorials can be done with any brand make up. Gosh I have so much make up, I change it up every day but I pretty much apply at the exact same way no matter what I’m using💕
@@LisaMonique tbh, it's the eyeshadow that I struggle with. No matter what I do, I end up looking like I've been punched in the face. I can't get this "V" thing at all plus my eyes aren't hooded but kind of are, iykwim! I'm struggling with transition shade and then applying the other colours and forget about eye-liner! On a positive, I do good mascara 😂. Most of my make up is ELF or the kmart own brand called oxx. I have L'Oréal true match foundation. Makeup over here is expensive - elf camo cc cream is $35.00. I'm not sure of the USA price. I'm also finding it hard to find any cream blush or eyeshadow unless I buy it online from overseas. Anyway, enough moaning, I'll see you on your next video ❣
P.S. I think there's a big time difference as it's nearly midnight here!
I hope so 💕🌸💕🌸!!!
💕💕💕💕
I worry that it will stretch my skin too much. Thoughts?
It doesn’t really pull when you use a lot of facial oil. It just kind of glides over it it actually feels really good
U look amazing for 50 plus ……
Its great to see a mature lady wearing long hair,would you consider going longer
I have, but this is a good length for keeping some volume in my hair
@@LisaMonique thats understandable, my wife is 55 and has quite thick hair to her hips,she gets loads of compliments so just thought you might too, anyway carry on what you're doing, always enjoy your videos
❤❤❤
I r so beautiful
❤️🇨🇦
It does not function Watch Dr.Porfirio Castillo the best plastic surgeon
sorry I don't do anything Chinese anymore, i might get covid...lol..
Haha, well I'd be in trouble if I avoided everything Chinese, I thought I was 1/2 Thai but DNA says I'm 1/2 Chinese! My relatives must have immigrated to Thailand!
heart and liver patients should not do this either.
