RE2AL is a dual-function gua sha combining facial and scalp massage tools in one compact form. One end uses a stainless steel roll-on ball for facial massage, while the other features a ceramic protrusion head for the scalp, neck, and body. The two sections separate at the midpoint, with the upper cap protecting the facial roller when stored. Stainless steel was selected for its ability to conduct temperature, while the ceramic section provides weight and a cool tactile quality during broader massage. The protrusions were refined for curvature and density intended to stimulate circulation without irritating the skin.
Designed by Yezin Shin, Dongmin Chung, Dohui Kang, and Taeyeon Kim for GENIERR, the tool is finished in matte soft pink and incorporates a silicone loop for holding and hanging. Its compact form is intended to reduce the number of separate tools required for facial, scalp, neck, and body routines. The facial roller and ceramic head remain visually unified within a single silhouette, allowing the tool to move between different areas without requiring a separate instrument.
