The Black Obsidian stone is known to protect one from negativity, while also having a grounding effect on one's psyche by calming the mind and rooting the chakra. Khalm Skincare—a brand that offers "beauty backed by science meets mindfulness"—boasts an interesting use for the Black Obsidian stone. The minority-owned business incorporates this deep black stone into the skincare routine. The Obsidian Gua Sha Stone is said to exert the spiritual properties of its source material while promoting firmer skin and a rejuvenated complexion.
Khalm Skincare claims that the Obsidian Gua Sha Stone will reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, fight cystic acne, promote lymphatic drainage, minimize aging signs and dark circles, as well as contour and sculpt one's face.
