The rose quartz face gua sha, the anti-ageing gesture

Hand-carved from genuine rose quartz, the stone of the heart symbolising love and prized since ancient Egypt for fighting skin ageing, the face gua sha is an essential beauty ritual. Practised regularly, facial massage revives blood circulation, relieves muscle tension, lifts and smooths the features and restores the skin's natural radiance. On clean, dry skin, first apply the treatment oil of your choice, warming it slightly in the palm of your hand, then sculpt your features from the inside out, from the centre of the face towards the temples.

The jade massage roller, your everyday freshness ally

Cooling and relaxing, the genuine jade massage roller improves skin elasticity, smooths lines and wrinkles and decongests the eye contour. The coolness of the stone tightens pores while the massage stimulates blood and lymphatic circulation in the upper layers of the skin: the skin looks visibly rested and the complexion more luminous. Morning and evening, start with the eye contour using the smaller head, then massage the face with the larger one, with smoothing upward strokes, from the neck to the forehead and from the inside out. Repeat the movement on each area.

The jade body gua sha, the detoxifying, firming gesture

An ancestral, multi-sided beauty tool, the jade body gua sha allows for a tailor-made detox self-massage. Its strokes stimulate blood circulation and the lymphatic system to help drain toxins and bring an immediate feeling of lightness: the body is relaxed, the skin detoxified, firmer, smoother and softer. Massage after a shower, a sauna or exercise, to work deep into the connective tissue. Before you begin, apply one of the Pure Altitude body oils: Beauty Oil for normal skin, or Edelweiss Elixir for dry skin.

The Ferme de Beauté's tip: to multiply the effectiveness of your treatments, warm your gua sha or roller in a little lukewarm water before the massage to boost the oil's absorption, then always finish with the cold stone (chilled for a few minutes in a bowl of ice) to tighten pores and seal in all the active ingredients.

The Pure Glow body brush, the dry-brushing ritual

A few minutes a day are all it takes to enjoy the benefits of dry brushing at home. With vegan agave-fibre bristles, the Pure Glow body brush helps the skin shed the dead cells that build up on its surface, like a natural exfoliant, and boosts blood and lymphatic circulation to detoxify the body and reduce water retention. The skin regains its radiance, feels smoother and firmer, and your energy gets a boost. On dry skin, before showering, always brush in circular movements, from the bottom up, towards the heart: from the feet to the thighs, then the hands, arms, underarms, buttocks and stomach. Never wet the brush: tap it against a hard surface and store it in its pouch.
