Step 1: Set a Calming Scene

Lymphatic flow improves when your nervous system is calm. That means your results actually depend on how relaxed you are.

Dim the lights. Play calming music. Pull your hair back. Take 3–5 deep, intentional breaths. You want to switch out of stress mode and into flow mode—literally.

Insight: When you're relaxed, your parasympathetic nervous system kicks in—supporting natural detox and skin renewal.

Step 2: Cleanse Like You Mean It

Never massage dirty skin—it can push bacteria and grime deeper into your pores.

Use: Coconut Cleanser with Papaya + Moringa

This gentle yet effective cleanser uses papaya enzymes to exfoliate and moringa to detoxify, leaving skin smooth and refreshed without stripping moisture.

Why it matters: A clean base ensures your massage targets fluid—not trapped impurities. Clean skin = clear pathways.

Step 3: Oil Up (Smartly)

Massage without slip can stretch skin and wear down collagen over time. A nourishing, non-comedogenic oil protects your barrier and makes each movement glide seamlessly.

Use: Hydrate & Nourish Luxury Face Oil

This blend of dilo oil (anti-inflammatory, healing) and sikeci oil (moisture-locking) with macadamia and moringa nourishes without clogging pores.

• For normal to dry skin, apply 5–6 drops for the face (2–3 drops per cheek, 1–2 drops for forehead and chin) and 3–4 drops for the neck, pressing evenly into the skin with clean hands to create a thin, even layer.
• For oily skin, use 3–4 drops for the face (1–2 drops per cheek, 1 drop for forehead and chin) and 2 drops for the neck to avoid excess shine. Add 1–2 extra drops if the glide feels insufficient during massage.

Insight: Dilo oil’s omega fatty acids, backed by studies, reduce inflammation, making it perfect for soothing puffiness.

Step 4: Start at the Neck

The lymphatic system is like a drainage map. If you don’t clear the exit near the collarbones, everything else can back up.

Use: White Jade Stone Gua Sha Tool

This tool’s cool touch soothes while its shape helps sculpt contours. Clean it before and after each use to prevent bacterial buildup.

How-to: Use light downward strokes from just behind the ears down to your collarbone. Repeat each stroke 5–10 times.

Fijian wellness tip: Starting at the base allows upper lymphatic flow to drain properly, amplifying your results.

Step 5: Carve the Jawline

To define your jaw, glide from the center of the chin out to the earlobes. Use soft, intentional strokes—no need to press hard.

Insight: Lymph sits just beneath the skin. Gentle pressure is more effective than deep pushing.

Step 6: Sweep the Cheeks

This is where you’ll see circulation kick in.

Use your fingers or gua sha to glide from the sides of the nose, across the cheekbones, and out toward the temples. This clears congestion and wakes up tired skin.

Skin benefit: Improved blood flow brings more oxygen and nutrients to the surface—hello, glow.

Step 7: De-Puff the Eyes

Use your ring finger or gua sha tool to gently trace from the inner corners of the eyes out toward the temples along the orbital bone.

Tip: Keep your gua sha in the fridge for extra de-puffing power.

Remember: Sync with Your Body’s Rhythms

Your skin doesn’t stay the same every day—and neither should your massage.

• Morning: Use lighter, quicker strokes to awaken the face and reduce sleep puffiness.
  
• Evening: Slow it down. Go deeper to support lymph flow and cell repair overnight.
  
• Hormonal cycle:
  
• Follicular phase (Days 1–14): Skin is firmer and more resilient—feel free to go deeper.
  
• Luteal phase (Days 15–28): Skin is more reactive—use calming pressure and gentle strokes.
  

In practice: Listening to your body and working with its rhythms improves results and minimizes irritation.

When to Skip It

Avoid lymphatic massage if you have:

• Active breakouts or acne cysts
  
• Rosacea or eczema flare-ups
  
• Sunburn, wounds, or recent injectables (under 2 weeks)
  
• Any skin infection or healing area
  

Why: Massage during inflammation or sensitivity can worsen irritation and delay healing.
