Elevate your typical beauty routine with crystals. They are believed to hold energetic properties that can be used for healing and realignment. Some practices from Traditional Chinese Medicine and Indian Ayurvedic Medicine involve the use of crystals to support the wellness of your body, mind, and spirit. 


Each stone offers their own unique set of benefits. Rose quartz represents unconditional love and is used to enhance self-love. Jade is believed to bring forth happiness and good fortune. Clear quartz is said to enhance mental clarity, and amethyst can be used to restore inner peace as it absorbs negative energy. Here are a few ways to incorporate these powerful stones into your beauty rituals for a dose of positive energy.  

1. Facial Massagers

Facial massagers are great tools for lymphatic drainage and facial de-puffing. Some common crystal facial massagers include gua shas, rollers, and sculpting spoons. These are typically made out of stones such as jade, amethyst, and rose quartz for soothing effects. When applying a serum or night oil, use a facial massager for better product distribution. In return, you’ll achieve a healthy glow because facial massagers increase circulation. If you’re new to facial massagers, give the Lanshin Jade Intro Gua Sha a try.

2. Crystal Facial Steam

Facial steams are great for increasing circulation. They also have the ability to help the skin with absorption of products while offering a boost of hydration. Crystals can easily be incorporated into this skincare treatment whether done at home or with a licensed esthetician. Place a few stones at the bottom of your steaming bowl and fill it with hot water. Place a towel over your head as you hover over the bowl to trap the vapor. To prevent transepidermal water loss, the process in which water passes from the dermis to the epidermis layer and evaporates from the skin’s surface, do not steam for longer than 10 minutes. Including crystals like clear quartz or amethyst into your facial steam can help you reach a tranquil state of mind. 

3. Gemstone Facial Acupuncture

Gemstone facial acupuncture involves the placement of crystals across the body’s energy points followed by the insertion of thin needles into the face. An acupuncturist may use gemstones such as amethysts, citrine, yellow, blue, or green topaz, and clear quartz for their healing properties. The gemstones are strategically placed on certain areas of the body for inner healing. The needles create "positive microtraumaswhich encourage the body to repair itself. As a result, this stimulates blood flow, lymphatic drainage and the production of collagen. Try gemstone facial acupuncture to ease your mind and gain a radiant complexion.

4. Crystal Bath 

Upgrade your usual go-to bath by trying this Tik Tok trend that went viral this summer. Select the crystals based on your current needs and place them around the tub. For a total serene experience, light candles alongside the tub too. The belief behind crystal baths is that water, humans and crystals are all conductors of energy. This combination is thought to cleanse negative energy and while promoting mind-body relaxation.
