*three cupping set variations

SELF CARE STARTS NOW

Cupping is an ancient modality that has been part of many healing systems (Chinese, Unani, traditional Korean, Tibetan, and Oriental medicine) for centuries. The cups are used on the face to help de-puff, relax tense muscles and bring healthy Qi and blood for a radiant glow.

Facial Cupping uses suction cups to relax and tone the muscles in your face. The cups gently squeeze the skin to draw blood towards the surface. This encourages the formation of new blood vessels to boost circulation.

It also creates a controlled mini-trauma, similar to the process of micro-needling or derma-rollers. The natural healing process and increased blood flow help skin cells reproduce, boosting collagen to plump your face.

Facial Cupping can be very powerful. So, it’s best to follow a protocol to prevent damaging any veins or arteries. We include a printout on how to use, including a video for your new cupping set!

You should also choose the right type of cup for your skin. There are silicone and glass cups. Silicone cups are flexible, making them more gentle on the face, which make them great starter cups. Use a small cup on delicate sections, like the eyes and neck, and a bigger one for your cheeks and forehead.

Consistency is key to achieving beautifully glowing skin. Just like our bodies need a regular fitness routine to stay in shape.

Our facial muscles need frequent care. Using a facial cup for 5 minutes every day for the first week. During the second week, you should use Facial Cupping every other day. Then, from the third week, use a facial cup one to three times a week.

Some people start to see results within the first week. But the outcomes will be visible to everyone else after three weeks of consistent and proper use.

WHAT’S IN THE SET:

Large and small glass or silicone cups depending which you choose. Both come with Hemp Oil. 

I also recommend using our Oil Cleanser with cups, you need more oil than Gua Sha, so a cheaper blend is advisable. The slip from our oil cleanser is perfect!

HOW TO USE:

Apply facial serum, massage in well. Then add a cheaper oil on top, this could be a solo oil like Hemp or our Oil Cleanser Attune. Starting on the right side of your face, gently squeeze larger cups and use on chin, cheeks, and forehead. Starting in the middle of your face, and dragging the cups out to your hairline each time. Using long, strokes. Do each area 3-5 times. Use the smaller cups to suction your lips, laugh lines, lines between brows, around your eyes and eye brows, and small forehead lines. Go around each of these areas in a clockwise pattern. Finish off your one side by draining everything down the side of your face, and ending where your neck and jawline connect. Then, using suction cup moves (not long strokes) down your neck, to completely drain fluid. Do other side of face.

If you own a Gua Sha or facial roller, this is done before both of those.

Never let cups sit on your skin for too long. Practice 2 to 3 times per week.
