If you live in Australia and have been stuck at home lately, it's a sure thing you have googled:
- Self-love regimes
- How to pamper yourself at home?
- The best at-home facial
If you haven't already, consider incorporating facial massages into your routine of taking care of yourself.
Pause for a moment
- Use this time for yourself to see and reflect on the beauty that exerts from within.
- Take a moment to look in the mirror.
- Observe your face and reflect on how far you've come.
- Cup your face and appreciate the skin you have.
- Say to yourself, "I will take care of you".
Hectic schedules circulating the lives of many, the most time some care for their face is a bit of moisturiser, and they're out the door.
The benefits of facial massages
The technique of a facial massage includes energising and relaxing pressure points on the face and neck. Regularly incorporating facial massages into your routine will offer many long-term benefits that make the skin feel rejuvenated and fresh.
Long term results:
- Anti-aging and wrinkles
- Sinus pressure
- Acne

Incorporate the right product with your massage
At Kute, we love to use a Retinol based product due to its powerful cell renewal properties.
What is Retinol?
Retinol is essentially vitamin A and is the third strongest method of Retinoid and is famous for being an active ingredient that effectively activates collagen and tighter skin.
*DISCLAIMER- If you have sensitive skin or allergies, speak to your dermatologist and health professional before using Retinol.
What does it do?
The primary purpose of using Retinol is to reactivate and reproduce collagen and minimise lines and wrinkles.
How to massage your face with a facial roller and Gua Sha
- Tie your hair back- Clean up the canvas that is your face and make sure your hair is out of the way.
- Clean the skin- Wash your face with your preferred cleanser, and then wipe your face down with a lukewarm towel.
- Prep your skin with a serum- We recommend using a Retinol based product with the Kute Facial Roller and Gua Sha.
- Get your facial roller- Once you have prepared your skin for your massage, get your facial roller ready. Put your roller in the fridge an hour before, so it's extra cold!
- Start with the neck- To drain your lymph, roll from the neck down about ten times using your roller.
- Drain and roll your cheek area- Role towards your hair ONLY to drain your lymph's. Never roll back and forth.
- Roll forehead to temples- Roll towards your temple.
- Nose to temple- Using the smaller roller, roll from your nose to the temple. Start under the eye and work your way down. Gently go over your eyelids and proceed towards the temple.
- Top lip and chin- Roll in one direction when doing your lip and chin.
- Get your Gua Sha- Starting at the neckline, pull from the chin to your jaw and then up towards your ear to lift and tighten.
- Brighten and remove puffiness- Hold your Gua Sha down on your cheeks for ten seconds.
