The jade roller is a facial massage tool that helps improve blood and lymphatic circulation. It can reduce puffiness and tension, and promote the absorption of skincare products. Often used cold, it is made of genuine jade.
The jade roller is an ancient beauty accessory originating in China, designed for facial massage. It consists of a handle and two jade stone rollers (one large and one small) mounted on a metal frame.
Its benefits, although based on traditions and testimonials rather than in-depth scientific studies, are widely recognized in the field of beauty:
Decongestant effect: Used cold, it helps reduce under-eye bags and morning puffiness by stimulating lymphatic drainage.
Improved circulation: Gentle massage promotes blood flow, which can give the skin a brighter and more radiant appearance.
Relaxation: The roller helps to relax facial muscles, which can help reduce tension and the appearance of expression lines.
Product absorption: By applying it over a serum or cream, it can help the product penetrate deeper into the skin.
Instructions for use:
For best results, follow these steps:
Preparation: Cleanse your face and apply your usual serum, oil, or moisturizer. It is recommended to place the roller in the refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes before use for an enhanced decongesting effect.
Use :
From center outwards: Start from the center of your face (nose, chin) and always roll outwards and upwards.
Light movements: The pressure should be gentle. The goal is to massage, not to rub or stretch the skin.
Specific areas:
Forehead: Roll from the middle of the forehead towards the temples.
Eyes: Use the small roller to gently massage under the eyes, from the inside out.
Cheeks: Roll from nose towards ears.
Jaw and neck: Roll along the jaw, from the chin towards the ears, then from the chin towards the collarbone for the neck.
Duration: A routine of 5 to 10 minutes per day is usually sufficient.
Cleaning: After each use, clean the roller with warm water and mild soap, then wipe it with a clean towel to prevent the growth of bacteria.
