CHINESE MEDICINE FAVORITES YOU NEED TO TRY ASAP
Share

Beauty trends, offerings, and more to boost your rituals.

– KEYS SOULCARE

Did you know that many of the trending, tried and true beauty practices of today are rooted in the ancient teachings of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)? Dating back thousands of years, TCM has been the foundation of some of the most effective and trusted forms of care to date. Through movement, herbal blends, and sacred spiritual traditions, practitioners and participants, all around the world, take part in centuries-old rituals that continue to stand the test of time.

Today, we’re paying homage to the TCM gems that have enhanced a few of our favorite offerings and we’re giving you the scoop on how to boost your next self-care session.

Gua Sha

Gua Sha is all about stimulating your energetic flow. The therapeutic modality used to shift stagnant energy and clear out blockages has gained popularity in the west and continues to be a community favorite. Known for its positive impact on blood circulation, stress reduction, and enhancing the moisturizers on skin, it’s not surprising that this soul-soothing practice has stuck around.

Soulcare tip: Get into your flow from head to toe with our Obsidian Stone Gua Sha Massage Tool.

Snow Mushroom

Tremella fuciformis is more than just a gelatinous fungi tucked away in the damp forests of China, it’s one of the most sought after beauty secrets of the ancient world. If you’re looking for a super hydrating ingredient that can hold up to 500 times its weight in water, look no further than this collagen-boosting ‘shroom. The benefits of this snowy extract are seemingly endless, but if you want more radiance and moisture, consider this your new best friend.

Soulcare tip: Radiate with confidence and luminosity with our skin-brightening Promise Serum.

Turmeric

This bitter, peppery plant has roots in both Ayurvedic and Traditional Chinese Medicine. With benefits like an improved blood circulation, reduced inflammation reduction, and clear skin, turmeric is truly the golden child of the spice rack. Traditional Chinese Medicine also credits turmeric for its positive effects on digestion and liver health, with the secret to all its magic found in turmeric’s most important medicinal compound, curcumin.

Soulcare tip: Spice up your skincare routine with our gentle Golden Cleanser.

Mung Beans

Considered a TCM superfood, mung beans are the unsung heroes of the wellness world. These magic, tiny beans are packed with nutrients that fight chronic ailments, inflammation, and can help neutralize free radicals in the body with its high levels of antioxidants. Fun fact: mung bean soup is a summer favorite in many Asian countries since it’s used as heat stroke prevention, due to mung beans’ anti-inflammatory properties.

Soulcare tip: Add some mung beans to your ritual with our Be Luminous Skin Exfoliating Powder.
