How to massage your face with a roller?
Massage using both rollers is performed in the same way.
First, we thoroughly cleanse our skin, tone it and then apply our favorite cosmetic - oil (e.g. jojoba ) or serum , which, apart from ensuring slip during the massage (protecting against skin stretching), will also make the substances contained in the cosmetic reach the deeper layer of the epidermis. :)
Then make movements from the inside to the outside of the face and from the bottom up, working against the force of gravity - an example diagram is in the image below.
How to care for a jade roller ?
It is very important to minimize contact of the metal part of the roller with water. After the massage, simply wash the roller with water or a wet cotton pad. It is also recommended to leave the roller in a sunny place once every few weeks - thanks to this, the stone will retain its beautiful appearance and unique properties.
How often should you perform facial massage with a roller?
Regularity is the key to success, also in this case. For best results, we recommend massaging your face with the roller for about 15 minutes, 5 times a week. However, if you don't have enough time, remember that even 5 minutes will help your skin regenerate and have a positive effect on its appearance.
Remember that you don't have to use the roller only in the evening. It works equally well in the morning - especially after a hard, sleepless night, when the face is swollen and there are dark circles under the eyes. It works better than many nourishing masks or good creams. We love this way of relaxation and we do not part with the roller even when our travel luggage is limited to hand luggage only! :)
This is one of the oldest and most basic tools, it helps take our daily routine and care standard to a higher level, be sure to try it - we are sure that you will fall in love as much as we do :)
