LOVI comb is a gua sha classic. Suitable for the whole body from head to toe, it makes for a great general wellness tool. The U-shaped end with a notch follows the natural contours of your jawline, cheekbones and front and back of the neck, while the long side works well for the décolletage, face and your entire body. Combing the skin and especially the scalp feels divine. It releases tension and stress like magic.
In Finnish, LOVI means ‘notch’ but more importantly, it’s an ancient word for deep trance. In the old days, Lovi used to be a rare state of mind, achieved only with the help of a shaman. Nowadays we recommend it as a daily self-care nirvana.
LOVI comb is part of Yin Your Skin® holistic beauty concept by Katja Kokko. Treasuring the millennia-old Gua Sha self-care tradition, LOVI Yin Your Skin® tool is made of 100 % Xiuyan-jade in China. Each piece is unique. Just like you.
As the tools are made from natural stone, each tool is unique and may vary in colour. Effects of a facial gua sha:
boosts skin circulation–> oxidized blood travels up to the surface layers of the skin to nourish tissues and skin cells –> faster skin renewal
invigorates lymph fluid circulation –> removes puffiness on the face and under the eyes
brightens and ”opens up” the eyes
can reduce impurities
can fade pigment spots
improves collagen and elastin production
fades fine lines and wrinkles and tightens saggy tissue
the features of the cheeks and jawline become more sculpted
improves absorption of skincare products into skin
Gua sha is not recommended if you have:
damaged or infected skin
rosacea, acne or perioral dermatitis (areas of the afore-mentioned symptoms should be left untreated, but you can treat skin below and around. Treating the neck and décolletage is actually beneficial if you have acne or rosacea.)
if fillers or Botox have been applied to the skin in the last three months
