Facial cupping is the tool most at-home routines skip. The gentle suction lifts and mobilizes — bringing fresh circulation to the surface, easing the puffiness that settles in overnight, and helping everything applied afterward absorb better. It's the difference between skincare that sits on top and skincare that actually gets where it's going.
Best used after cleansing, on skin slicked with a facial oil so the cups glide. A few minutes along the jaw, the cheeks, the brow, and the flush of circulation shows almost immediately. It pairs beautifully with gua sha — cup to lift and stimulate, stone to drain and sculpt.
Made by LAKA the way a cupping set should be: considered, durable, and rooted in the traditional Chinese medicine practice it comes from, where balanced circulation has been understood as the foundation of skin for centuries.
The ritual: Cleanse. Apply a facial oil generously. Glide the cups in short, upward strokes — never hold them still. Finish with serum or moisturizer onto freshly circulated skin.
Filtered water, then the tools that finish the work.
