This gemstone cools, tightens and depuffs your face in seconds.
The jade roller is an age-old tool that has been an integral part of Chinese beauty regimes since at least the 7th century. A favourite tool of elite women from then on, jade rollers are thought to reduce facial puffiness, drain the body of toxins, and balance one’s Qi (the Chinese term for life energy). The gemstone naturally transmits infrared rays, which warm and increase blood circulation.
As well as being beautiful to look at, jade has a number of very practical properties. It is one of the only gemstones that remain cool when applied to the skin, so it can offer instant relief to inflamed patches or sensitive areas of the face.
The gentle rolling motion and the pressure of the stone is also great at flattening fine lines and wrinkles, and aiding lymphatic drainage – which can help to prevent blemishes over time and reduce puffiness.
For the last few weeks we have been testing out the Jade Facial Roller from Yu Ling Rollers (127 AED), which is available from Cult Beauty, and we couldn’t be more impressed. After rolling around our eyes, our under-eye bags appeared dramatically depuffed almost instantly.
To Use:
Using broad sweeps always working away from the nose area, roll across the forehead, cheeks, throat and décolletage area. Place vertically on your sinus area and rock gently and then roll away from the nose to clear blocked sinuses. Finally, pay special attention to the jawline where congestion is prone to build up, rocking the roller vertically in the crevice where your neck meets your ear and then rolling it down towards your collarbone.
