The best gua sha stones - TOP 5 ranking in 2025
We present the current ranking of the most effective Gua Sha stones available on the market in 2025. Gua Sha massage is an innovative skincare method that goes beyond traditional methods. A precisely performed Gua Sha massage, taking into account the direction of lymph flow, not only stimulates microcirculation, but also relieves muscle tension, reduces puffiness and makes the skin firmer. The use of authentic stones, such as obsidian, pink quartz and jade, guarantees a unique experience, combining skincare benefits with relaxation. It is worth paying attention to the natural origin of the Gua Sha stone, as synthetic substitutes do not give the same results. The quality of workmanship is equally important to ensure that the stone is smooth and comfortable to use. Discover our ranking of Gua Sha stones and choose the one that meets your expectations.
The ranking factors we took into account are:
- Massage effectiveness
- Keeping you cool
- Price
- Ergonomics
- Durability
- Workmanship
- Material
What qualities should a good gua sha stone have?
Natural origin of the stone - synthetic substitutes do not give comparable results.
Workmanship - a good gua sha stone should have smooth and precisely shaped edges so that it does not irritate the epidermis.
Keeping cool - a gua sha stone massage gives the best results when the tile is pre-cooled. Artificial or tiles made of soft materials (e.g. amber) will heat up much faster.
Lovers of attributing action to stones should also pay attention to the type of stone:
- Quartz, especially pinkquartz, is considered a stone of love; such tiles can relieve nervous tension and restore emotional balance.
- Jadeite promotes relaxation, detoxifies the skin, rejuvenates, helps with weight loss and relieves pain.
- Opal, shimmering with many colours, accelerates the body's regeneration, stimulates creativity and benefits the cardiovascular system.
Take a look at our ranking of the best gua sha stones:
Gua Sha stone by Uddo, in the form of a heart and made of white jade, identified with healing and energetic properties. Recommended for facial massage, it effectively smooths wrinkles, improves facial oval, firmness, skin elasticity, and combats puffiness under the eyes. Regular use promotes blood circulation, skin oxygenation and the removal of toxins. The Uddo stone keeps cool when taken out of the fridge, providing relaxation, indulgence and pleasant refreshment. It is perfect as a complement to facial massage and as an accessory for applying cosmetics.
The Gua Sha massage plate by Lash Brow has been handmade from high-quality pink quartz, called the stone of love by those who believe in the power of minerals. It is recommended to alleviate the first signs of ageing on the face, it improves blood circulation and massage with this stone reduces stress and feelings of tension. The tile has soft, contoured edges and is pleasant when in contact with the skin. The tile is sold in an aesthetically pleasing pouch, which can be successfully used to store the stone on a daily basis.
The Gua Sha obsidian stone by Crystallove is deep black in colour and provides comfortable at-home care. The five specially shaped edges can be used for massage and the tabs reduce facial muscle tension, stimulate lymphatic drainage and reduce lines and wrinkles. The natural coolness of the stone lasts well and has a positive effect on puffiness and dark circles under the eyes. Gua sha by Crystallove is not a cheap accessory. In our opinion, two serrated edges are too many and one would work better, as used dry they can irritate.
The Gua Sha Fluff stone is made of rose quartz, in the spirit of the traditional ritual of natural lifting. It presents itself well both visually and in practice. With its classic shape without unnecessary embellishments, regular massage improves skin firmness, reduces puffiness and dark circles under the eyes. Pink quartz, nicknamed the 'stone of love', is also credited with the ability to trigger positive emotions. Although a massage with this stone is pleasant and the edges do not irritate the skin, gua sha Fluff is not without its drawbacks. One problem is the rapid loss of coolness. On the other hand, the rather deep indentation in the form of a logotype can collect dirt, making it necessary to clean the tile more frequently and thoroughly.
The Crystallove brand makes its second appearance in the listing, but this time we are dealing with a product from the manufacturer's top line. The Citrine Amber Gua Sha Plate is a product aimed at those who believe in the magical power of stones. Amber is credited with a variety of benefits, such as stimulating the metabolism or reducing acne lesions. When using a gua sha tile massage, improvements in skin elasticity and a smoother skin texture can be observed. However, it should be taken into account that the amber gua sha tile does not keep the skin cool, as amber is soft and gives off the cold quickly. For the same reason, the tile is very susceptible to scratches and damage. Combined with the extremely high price (over £900), this makes this gua sha tile something we can only recommend to die-hard mineral magic enthusiasts.
