The Best Face Massage Rollers You Need to Try
Face massage rollers? Who needs them, eh? Turns out, all of us.
If you haven’t already jumped on the bandwagon, then it’s about time! Whether it’s supermodels, pop stars or the beauty obsessed here at Cosmetify, we’re all for the amazing benefits of at-home facial rollers and massage tools.
Not only can they improve the texture and appearance of your skin, but they can also help you unwind and destress at the end of a long day - the perfect pamper ritual if you will. And to get you started, here’s our rundown of the best face rollers and products you need in your life right now!
Why use a face roller
So, what’s all the buzz about? The list is long, but one of the main reasons skincare fanatics love this little tool is because it helps ease tension, relax muscles and even drain toxins from the skin. In fact, it de-puffs, re-plumps and re-tones your complexion with a few simple swipes.
How you ask? Well, the process of upward rolling helps drain any lymphatic fluid, which holds on to toxins. By massaging certain areas – the jawline, the temples, under-eyes and cheekbones – you are encouraging circulation and relaxing your facial muscles. This helps ease headaches, jaw pains and even rejuvenates tired, dry skin.
And if that wasn’t enough, face massage rollers can also help activate skincare ingredients. The process of massaging oil, serums and day creams deep into the surface of the skin ensures they fully absorb. This leaves you feeling fresh faced and silky smooth.
Stress-buster and skin-booster all in one? Yes please.
