1.) Dry Brush
This is great for eliminating toxins and exfoliating dead skin from your body, it stimulates circulation and helps with digestion and blood flow. $10

This tool stimulates lymphatic drainage in your face and reduces puffiness. We tend to hold a lot of tension in our faces, it helps us relax these muscles while tightening pores and brightening your complexion.

4.) Gua Sha + Facial Oil
Gua Sha facial massage helps to ease tension, stress, and anxiety, promoting feelings of well-being. It also improves circulation and skin tone, reduces puffiness, and smooths the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Similar to the jade roller, but is a bigger tool, and can be used for a more intense detoxifying treatment on your face and neck area. This is meant to be used with a natural oil to protect your skin and enhance the function of gua sha.

I have been using this lotion for years and it is the only one that I love through all seasons! Made from natural hemp seed oil, absorbs right into your skin & doesn’t leave it greasy. It smells great without and is made without synthetic fragrance and dyes. $13
