How to use a Jade Roller

A jade roller is a facial tool made of a crystal called jade stone. It has long been used in Chinese beauty rituals and traditional Chinese medicine, but it suddenly became super popular when it was discovered in the beauty world a few years ago.

There are several benefits of using a facial roller, and some of them are; getting your products massaged into the skin, increasing circulation, and reducing signs of aging.

After you've cleansed your skin and applied your skincare products, roll it over your face. This will then help the products to be massaged into the skin and give a soothing feeling.

• Start rolling from the middle of the chin and then further outwards towards the hairline.

  
  



• Always work outwards from the center of the face and now start from the sides of the nose up towards your ears.

  
  



• Most Jade Rollers also have a slightly smaller end for use around the eye area and mouth. Using light pressure, apply the small end of your Jade Roller to your inner corner and roll outwards towards your temples.

  
  



• To finish the eye area, use the larger end of the jade roller at the center of your eyebrows and roll outwards towards your temples.

  
  



• Finally, roll upwards towards the hairline from your eyebrows and then finish by rolling horizontally across the forehead.

  
  

When you go for a facial treatment, they really take the time to massage and work each product into your skin, whereas we tend to stress through our everyday skincare routine. We quickly apply our products to the surface rather than working them into the skin. Using jade rollers in connection with the application gives a completely different glow and takes your routine a little closer to a professional.

• Make sure you don't have any makeup left on the skin when you use your jade roller. A tip is to use a toner after your cleanser or makeup remover to make sure the face is clean. Then do the rest of your skin care routine before using your jade roller.

• If you suffer from migraines, you can use a jade roller around your eyes to reduce tension in your head.

• Store your jade roller in the fridge for a super nice and cooling effect on a puffy morning face.

• Finally, clean your Jade Roller with a damp towel, soap and water, especially if you use it with facial products and oils.
