Copper Gua Sha — Sculpting Facial & Body Tool

A solid pure copper Gua Sha, laser engraved with the Philogeni mark and finished with a smooth, contoured edge that follows the natural lines of the face, jaw, and neck. A simple, hands-on tool for a slow few minutes of facial massage, made to sit alongside the M-Veil oils in your routine. It arrives with its own pouch, so it stays clean and protected between uses.

Menopausal skin responds to care, not complication. Copper warms quickly to skin temperature, so it feels comfortable from the first stroke and helps your oils and balms glide rather than drag, turning the products you already love into a calmer, more deliberate ritual. The copper develops a soft patina over time, the mark of a tool that is being used and lived with.

How to use

Press a few drops of the Bio-Lipid Concentrate into clean skin, or warm a little Resilience Balm between your fingers, so the skin has enough slip. Hold the tool flat against the skin and glide it outward along the jaw, cheeks, and neck in slow, light strokes. A few minutes is all it takes. Finish whenever it feels right.

Care

Copper is non-porous and naturally antimicrobial, so unlike porous stone tools it stays easy to keep clean and hygienic between uses. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth after each use and keep it dry, tucked in its pouch. The copper will deepen in tone over time, which is natural and expected. To bring back the shine, buff gently with a little lemon and salt, then dry well.
