What Is the Everywhere Collection? A Guide to Our At-Home Self-Care Tools

The question we get asked most often after a session: what can I do between appointments?

The Everywhere Collection is our answer to that question — the tools we actually reach for in the clinic, adapted for home use, put together in a way that makes sense.

Here's what's in it and how each piece fits into a real practice.

The facial cupping set

Facial cups are small, soft silicone cups that create gentle suction on the skin. Where traditional cupping (the kind that leaves the distinctive marks) uses strong suction on the body, facial cups use just enough to lift the tissue lightly — encouraging circulation, moving lymphatic fluid, and releasing the tension that accumulates in the face over a day of screen time, jaw clenching, or squinting in the Phoenix sun.

What it does well: morning puffiness, particularly around the eyes and jaw. Circulation that gives the skin that "worked on" quality. The facial tension most of us carry without noticing.

Use it on clean, oiled skin. The sequence matters — start at the neck to open drainage, then work upward and outward across the face. See our full facial cupping guide for technique.

The gua sha tool

Gua sha is a TCM bodywork technique that uses a smooth-edged tool to glide along the skin, following the direction of lymph flow. The facial version is gentle, precise, and deeply satisfying once you know the sequence.

What it does well: the lymphatic drainage that accumulates overnight, definition along the jawline and cheekbones, the gradual softening of habitual tension. Over weeks, it contributes to improved tone and texture — not dramatically, but cumulatively.

Pair it with jojoba oil. No oil means the tool drags instead of glides, and dragging is what you're trying to avoid.

For a complete technique walkthrough, see How to Use a Gua Sha Tool.

Jojoba oil

Jojoba is technically a wax ester, not an oil — which means it's structurally similar to the skin's own sebum and absorbs differently than most facial oils. It doesn't sit on top of the skin. It integrates.

We use it in the clinic as a carrier for facial cupping and gua sha work. At home, it's the base for both tools — and on its own, it's one of the most effective lightweight facial oils for maintaining skin barrier function, particularly in Phoenix's dry climate.

How to use them together

The most effective sequence for a home practice:

1. Cleanse. 2. Apply a few drops of jojoba oil and warm it between your palms. 3. Facial cupping first — start at the neck, work upward. 4. Gua sha second — same directional logic, lighter pressure, more sculpting. 5. A few final strokes down the neck to close the drainage pathway.

The whole thing takes 5–7 minutes. Daily consistency produces better results than longer sessions done occasionally.

If you've had a lymphatic drainage session at the clinic, your at-home practice will make those results last longer — you're working on the same system, at a maintenance level, between appointments.


The Everywhere Collection — facial cupping set, gua sha tool, and jojoba oil — is available at the clinic and online. It's the at-home extension of the work we do in the room.
