This restorative, luxurious self-care routine lights the way to pattern awareness of your facial expressions.
Glass cupping for the face uses small cups applied to moisturized or oiled faces to allow easy gliding over the skin surface—no marks. Your skin will glow with a slight tingle from increased blood flow with daily cupping.
BENEFITS
- Improves facial tone
- Boosts collagen and elastin production
- Minimizes fine lines
- Eases facial tension
HOW TO
- Apply facial oil or moisturizer to the face. This creates a smooth surface for the cups to glide
- Squeeze the cup’s rubber bulb to create a medium or light suction. Never leave the cup stationary with facial cupping Note: colour should appear, but there should be no lasting redness or petechiae on the face
- Do not have strong suction, instead keep mild and repeat 3–5 times, gently gliding over one area (as illustrated in the diagram – follow the arrows as a guideline)
- With the free hand, lightly press and stabilize the skin’s surface to ensure to follow the direct line of cupping
