My favourite guasha tool

I have four gua sha tools, including the Wilding Empress Stone, two jade tools, and now this Sacheu stainless steel tool. This stainless steel tool is, by far, my favourite one.Gua Sha Design: 9/10The stainless steel tool gives me so much peace of mind when I'm using it because I know that if I acci...dentally drop it, it will not break in half. It also proves to be a very easy cleanup and doesn't leave me worried that bacteria is being harbored in the material (as is the case in some of the more porous materials used in other tools). I find the indented 'heart' part fits my jaw line perfectly, unlike the Wilding stone whose curve was much too tight and was uncomfortable to use. I am able to keep it in the fridge and chill it if I feel a bit puffy and crave some cool touch. Its easy to hold in my hand; Not too big, not too small, not too thick, and not too thin. The only thing it is missing is a 'combed' side, which is why I deducted one point. I can see why it may have been excluded from the design as the small indentations can be more difficult to clean, however, I do love to 'comb' my forehead and that is something that I miss out on using this tool.Gua Sha Function: 10/10Out of all the gua sha tools that I have, this is the one that I continuously go back to and get the most use out of. As I mentioned in the design, it's just easy to use and clean which makes for a more relaxing experience to use overall. I feel safe taking it into the shower to use because I know that if it drops it won't break. After purchasing this tool I find that I am much more consistent in using a gua sha, which is something I struggled with using my other ones. Again, the ease of mind that comes with it just makes it seem less daunting to use so, I end up grabbing it more than any of my other tools.Slick Skin Oil: 9/10This oil does a great job of providing a very slick and smooth lubricant for your skin so that the gua sha tool can more easily glide over your skin without pulling. So far, I have only used it at nighttime as it seems a bit too heavy/oily for daytime use. Therefore, I can't give a review on how it looks under makeup, but I can say that my skin looks very hydrated and nice when I wake up in the morning. I use it as the last step in my nighttime routine. You only need about three drops for your entire face. The first time I used it I put it on like I would with another face oil I have and I found that it was just a bit too much. The next time, I did only a small drop on each cheek and one on my forehead. Then I use my hands to disperse it over my entire face before I go in with the gua sha tool for a facial massage. I don't use it unless I am going to do a gua sha massage, but I suppose you could use it every night regardless of whether you have a gua sha or not. I do find that it seems to do a good job at keeping my skin moisturized overnight and it helps to lock in all the skincare that I layer on before. My night routine usually consists of a double cleanse, toner x2, essence x3, serum/retinols, eye cream, moisturizer, facial oil/slick skin, gua sha massage.I was able to purchase this kit while it was on sale, but knowing what I know now, I can confidently say that I would have been willing to purchase this full price. If you aren't interested in the slick skin, or you already have a facial oil you like, then I would purchase the gua sha tool separately. It has so quickly become my favorite facial tool that I am considering purchasing it as a gift for my sister.TL;DRGua sha tool is a must buy; Easy to clean and won't break if it drops.The slick skin oil is good, but you can use any facial oil you have.
