Known as China’s "royal gem,” Jade, with its strikingly bold green color, has always had a very special significance.
Known to exhibit various therapeutic properties, both for the body and the mind, this gemstone is believed to improve creativity and mental agility, while also having a balancing and harmonizing effect. Also known as the "stone of heaven” it is said that Jade embodies the Confucian virtues of wisdom, justice, compassion, modesty, and courage.
Now, this beautiful stone is making headway in the personal care industry, providing numerous amounts of holistic benefits. Nephrite and jadeite are the two types of jade stone, with nephrite being the most common. The stone, which is typically relatively cool to the touch, stays cool even when it encounters the skin. Cooling sensations often help to reduce puffiness, promote blood circulation, brighten complexion, and even stimulate lymphatic drainage. By aiding in calming the skin, jade can be of great use for irritated skin conditions.
Abundantly found in Alaska, Australia, Brazil, Russia, and Taiwan, nephrite’s mystical properties have led it to be incorporated into all sorts of holistic uses, with great tradition carried behind it. A color of balance, nature, spring, and rebirth, along with being a symbol for prosperity, freshness, and progress, it is no wonder jade has made its way into the cosmetic industry.
