The Art and Science of Facial Sculpting

Our exclusive Vitale Elixir Ritual Gift Set pairs the Supernatural Vitale Face Elixir with our beautifully sculpted Zamac Gua Sha – designed to elevate your skincare ritual.

Created in response to customers seeking a natural alternative to Botox, the Supernatural Vitale Elixir is a cosmeceutical grade facial muscle relaxant scientifically proven to reduce the frequency of facial muscle contractions by up to 91% within 24 hours*. Harnessing 11 advanced natural actives, including our proprietary Neuropeptide Relaxant Complex, it works on multiple cellular pathways to smooth fine lines, firm, and lift the skin. Through Hydrafilling technology, the elixir delivers deep, lasting hydration, plumping skin from within for a revitalised complexion.

The Emma Lewisham gua sha facial tool is crafted from Zamac, a durable metal alloy that combines strength with a smooth, polished surface. This makes it long lasting, resistant to chipping, and easy to glide over the skin without tugging. Lightweight yet solid, it provides just the right pressure for facial contouring, and it can be chilled for a refreshing, de-puffing effect.

The Art and Science of Facial Sculpting

Why should you include gua sha in your skincare ritual?

The lymphatic system plays a crucial role in removing toxins, excess fluid, and waste from the body, but unlike the circulatory system, it relies on physics, not a heart, to move fluid. Around the eyes and face, the lymphatic vessels are delicate and densely packed, which can lead to fluid pooling and puffiness if drainage is slow or stagnant.

Gua sha massage, an ancient Chinese technique, helps support this system through gentle, precise strokes that stimulate lymphatic flow, boost circulation, and reduce puffiness.

When paired with the Emma Lewisham Supernatural Vitale Elixir, the benefits of gua sha are enhanced. The Supernatural Vitale Elixir provides the perfect slip for the tool to glide effortlessly over the skin, preventing tugging while supporting deeper absorption of active ingredients such as peptides and hydration filling ingredients. This combination not only promotes lymphatic drainage and a lifted, sculpted appearance but also maximises the efficacy of the skincare, leaving skin radiant, hydrated, and visibly smoother.

“Inspired by gua sha facial massage, this intentional pairing encourages circulation, supports lymphatic drainage, and enhances the elixir's absorption. It creates a luxurious, transformative experience that leaves skin firmer, more supple, and beautifully renewed.”

How to incorporate this into your routine

Step 01.
Supernatural Vitale Elixir 
Begin by applying the Supernatural Vitale Face Elixir to a clean face generously, using long, smoothing strokes across the face. This creates a smooth glide between the Gua Sha and skin.  

Step 02.
Gua Sha
 Using upward motions, massage the Gua Sha at an angle against your face, following your natural contours. This supports lymphatic drainage, boosts circulation and product absorption.

Step 03.
Tip 
For an enhanced cooling effect, store your Gua Sha tool in the refrigerator – the additional coolness helps soothe inflammation and reduce puffiness.
