Everything to know about REBEL CUP BLACK

What is a facial cupping tool?

A facial cupping tool is a small cup that creates light suction when you press it to the skin. Unlike body cupping, where a cup stays in place, facial cupping keeps the cup moving over a layer of facial oil and uses much lighter suction. The technique is inspired by Traditional Chinese Medicine and is used as a slow, relaxing massage for the cheeks, jawline and neck.

How to choose a facial cupping tool

  • Suction control: you should be able to adjust the suction easily, and release it before lifting the cup.
  • Size: a face-sized cup is easier to guide over the cheeks and jawline.
  • Visibility: a transparent cup lets you see your skin while you work. This black cup is also available in transparent.

How to use your facial cup

  1. Start with clean skin and a generous layer of light facial oil or hydrating serum so the cup glides.
  2. Create light suction on the skin and glide slowly upward and outward, from the centre of the face toward the ears and down the neck.
  3. Keep the cup moving and never leave it in one spot. Use light suction only, for a few minutes in total.
  4. Release the suction before you lift the cup away.

How often: many people use it 2 to 3 times a week. Allow at least one day between sessions, and avoid overuse, as it can cause irritation.

Cupping, gua sha or roller?

Cupping lifts and glides with suction. A gua sha presses and glides, and a face roller is lighter. Many people combine them.

Good to know

Not for broken, irritated or very sensitive skin. Stop if anything feels uncomfortable. If you have a skin condition or a medical concern, check with your doctor first.

How often should I use it?

The “How to use” section above gives the recommended frequency for your tool. For example, the Rebel Cup is best used 2-3 times a week, with a day of rest between sessions.

Do I need a face oil or serum?

We recommend a few drops of face serum or a light facial oil on clean skin, so the tool glides smoothly.
