Crystal Face Roller Benefits & How-To

I think we can all stand to learn a little bit more about how these tools work, so I am taking the time to research crystal face roller benefits. I will be talking about the benefits, how to use the tools, and how I like to use them.

Rose Quartz

Rose quartz claims to be able to remove dead skin cells while reducing inflammation and overall promoting healing. It may also have the ability to soften the appearance of fine lines by alleviating tension. Rose quartz is best used at nighttime as a means of calming your skin for sleep.

Jade and Gua Sha

Jade Rollers

Next up I have some jade products as part of my crystal face roller benefits journey. The claims on jade are pretty much the same as those on rose quartz. It claims to calm inflammation and irritation while smoothing fine lines. It also supports drainage of the lymphatic system, which may flush out bacteria and toxins that cause blemishes. Hence, jade promotes less acne.

Gua Sha

To dive in deeper, gua sha is a massage technique that will ease the muscles in the face. As you reduce the tension, blood flow improves, and thus promotes lymphatic drainage. Additionally, the scraping action should produce collagen and reduce fine lines while also clearing chronic whiteheads, blackheads, and other breakouts.

Many people prefer to apply an oil or some sort of product to the face before getting started. You are to take the tool and gently sweep it over the following areas:

• Down both sides of your neck
• Under your chin
• Over the middle of your chin toward the jawline
• Under your cheekbones
• Over your cheekbones
• Under the eyes
• From your eyebrows toward your hairline
• From the middle of your forehead toward the hairline

How I Use Rollers & More

Generally speaking, crystal facial rollers are designed to minimize skin puffiness, alleviate tension, and to increase circulation. Beyond that, they should also stimulate the lymphatic system to aid in gently draining fluid from the skin and muscle tissue, which in tern brings more oxygen flow to the skin. Besides rose quartz and jade, you will also find crystal tools made out of amethyst, obsidian, and quartz.

I like to use facial rollers to help skincare products absorb into the skin. I usually reach for one after applying a serum or a face mask that directs you to massage the excess serum in. For smaller rollers or eye crystals, I typically use those with eye creams in the under eye area.

If you are as skeptical as me, then I would not invest an arm and a leg into the tools. On those rare occasions when I do reach for a tool, I do enjoy them. Do you regularly use crystal facial tools and see results? Until next time, continue to let your true beauty shine.
