Review (5/5): but that just means they are to great for words
I don't even know what to say about this facial cupping set as I am at a loss of words, but that just means they are to great for words. No, i am just being dramatic Haha. This facial cupping set is amazing though. I am an esthetician and a massage therapist, so i know my way around cupping tools. But for the face, i have never used them on my self or on a client for that matter. Even though i always wanted to buy a set, i never got around to doing so, and i'm kind of kicking myself in the butt now for not doing so earlier. Either way though, i have them now, and they are great way to help detoxify the skin, and help aid with the renewing process of collagen to help fight those unsightly fine lines/wrinkles we may have. Please be careful with using them and proceed with caution. You can not use them on dry skin. A mix of facial lotion and a beauty oil like Argan or rose hip oil will do the tick. The skin needs to have a slick surface in order for them to move. Always keep the cups moving. If the stay in a spot longer than 30 seconds, little blood capillaries will start to come up to the surface, almost wanting to form a ''hickey'' on the skin. If you leave it on any longer, you will end up with a bruise. Also be careful with the suction! You only need a little as the skin is very delicate and doesn't need much to be manipulated. Besides that, if you know how to use them correctly, they are a wonderful set of tools. I use these cups all sort of ways on the face. I move them in circular motions for massaging, Side to side for blood flow, and up and down to move/drain lymph and to produce collagen to plump the skin. When i was using them on my cheeks, i was getting some crazy dirty looking oil out of my face. My face was clean before hand, and i consider my skin to be in great condition, but the oil being pulled out by the cups said otherwise. It was so cool to see this stuff coming out, but then also at the same time mad me feel sad that i had this in my skin. I like to think i take care of my skin pretty well, but i know it is a mix of makeup, dirt and oil that naturally builds up over time, and environmental pollution. Its crazy what can harm your skin/body. After i was done cupping, within 5 minutes tops, i have a couple of breakups just pop up, which is perfectly normal. I did not have them before hand, so it was another learning experience what facial reflexology can do. So i just extracted them and put on a facial mask to reduce the redness caused by the cupping and to make the breakouts disappear , which did happen. I am beyond impressed with this cupping set, and i am so glad i found this and had the opportunity to try it. You will not be disappointed with this. Trust me.
I received this at a discount in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.
