Jade Mask and Rose Quartz Face and Eye Mask Health, Healing, Love, Gentleness, Stress, Spirituality Active-Corona Virus Season

The Covid-19 corona virus spreading throughout our world is taking a toll on all of us.  Many of us keep busy, enjoying our self isolation time at home, while many of us are also very stressed about isolation.  And many people are working in the health care fields, risking themselves and working hard, exhausted at the end of the day.

Jade face and eye masks have been used in China and Asia for health and healing.  They are cool, and help relax the forehead, upper face and around the eyes.  People who get headaches often find them very helpful.  When you have had a long stressful day working, especially now, because they feel so good and are helpful, they may reduce your risk for becoming ill.  And if you are bored, watching television all day, or working to home school your children, they offer relief.

Jade facial masks are also used in spas for health and beauty

While jade is our primary product that we sell, I have also been a fan of rose quartz over the years.  When shopping for jade in China, I purchased rose quartz items because they are so beautiful, but also have a good "feel", similar to jade.  Rose quartz is related to the Water element, and the Heart Chakra. The energy is related to Love, Gentleness, Emotional Healing, Stress and Spirituality, Unity with the Divine, according to culture and alternative health (reference "Book of Stones").

I purchased a few, and was surprised at how quickly they sold out.  They are very popular now, along with rose quartz rollers and gua sha tools.   And we added rose quartz to Ying Yu Jade because we want to offer customers the best products for health and wellness.   Rose quartz costs 2-3 times as much as jade does, but if you "feel good and happy" when you look at it, then it is probably a helpful item for you to use for your health. 


And the masks also help with appearance.  They are used in spas often.  If you use it regularly, you will probably notice wrinkles less noticeable, that area above the nose may not have the deep wrinkles.  As you have read in other blog posts, I only buy and sell items that I personally use.  It is my intention to share what works for me so you can have access to them, too.

These jade and rose quartz face and eye masks sell well, and we do our best to keep them in stock.

Jade for Health and Wellness - And Health and Beauty for Your Plants, Flowers, Bushes

Many of us have been staying at home, away from other people, to avoid contacting the Covid-19 corona virus.   Since it's spring now, the weather getting warmer, it's healthy to go outside and get sunshine, activity working in your yard.  We had a colder than usual winter here in central Florida, and with other things going on in our lives I neglected my yard work, especially taking care of plants, flowers, landscaping I love.  I was somewhat surprised the orchids especially were blooming and doing well.  I am careful about products I use because, like medicine, they sometimes have "side effects" that can cause damage to the plant, and also to the person who is applying it.

Add jade eggs, balls to flower pots,  around your favorite plants, bushes so they get the good healthy "qi energy" too!

One of my shipments of jade from China a couple of years ago was "inspected" during Customs inspection from China to USA, and the box was not well packed afterwards.  My jade carver does a very wonderful job of packing, and there is often more soft packaging than the actual jade so it will arrive to me in good shape, no damage.  But you never know what Customs will do.  Most of the time they just open the box to make sure there's nothing illegal inside.  This box was filled mostly with the jade eggs and ben wa balls that we have been selling for years. And there was almost no packaging material they used to re-wrap, so they were very loose in the hard box, and many were damaged when I received them, small chips, cracks, scratches, the hard materials in the box damaging the gentle polishing the jade carver did.  When I sorted through them, I had a huge box of damaged jade eggs and ball.  I open the boxes of jade I order from China in our driveway and take photos in the natural daylight to show "what's new" on YouTube and on the blog, and it occurred to me that this jade that looks so natural would look very good outside.

So I added jade eggs, balls to my plant containers,  around the orchids, spread them throughout the bushes,  and scattered them around my favorite area where I have small palm trees, most of the orchids, some herbs like rosemary, and they looked so good with the "stepping stones", stone mulch, pots and plants.  That's when I decided to sell them as "Clearance Jade Eggs and Ben Wa Balls for Plant Health and Wellness-13 pieces".   And I sold quite a few sets.   Since it's spring again, I do have more that are available for jade lovers who want their jade outside as well as inside, and on their wrist!

The colors were mostly the darker green "yang" that I paid a higher price for than the lighter green "yin" jade eggs and balls.  So they really do look good outside.

Not only are my orchids gorgeous, but the rosemary, aloe vera plants are there for me when I use them, which is often.
