For thousands of years, gemstones and crystals have been recognized for their power to heal and release the physical, spiritual and emotional blockages within the body, thus promoting a free flow of energy. Because crystals and gemstones, much like ourselves, are compromised of the life-giving elements of our Earth, we are inherently receptive to the electromagnetic energy they transmit.
Crystals and gemstones: the beauty secret of ancient civilizations
These semi-precious and precious rocks have powerful vibrations that help us balance, transform and manifest our intentions. Ancient Roman and Chinese civilizations used quartz crystal, green jade and lapis lazuli as protective talismans, within beautiful jewelry and to help dissipate sickness and disease. Traditional healers praised the mystical and restorative properties of stones like black onyx, malachite, turquoise, and mother of pearl. The Egyptians, in particular, were renowned for their belief in crystal and gemstone healing, so much that they created elixirs, make-up and emollient creams from shimmering rocks that were thought to purify and brighten while clearing emotional negativity. Today, gemstone-infused skincare products are gaining traction as part of a larger move toward holistic beauty and wellness. Thanks to their health and mood-enhancing properties, certain rocks have a meaningful place in modern skincare. As it turns out, the minerals found in rose quartz, diamonds and gemstones have anti-inflammatory, regenerative and anti-microbial properties, helping them replenish skin, calm redness and combat signs of aging.
