How long should you use a jade roller on your face?

 

When it comes to anti-ageing skincare, you've probably seen it all. Wrinkle-reducing lotions, hydrating face masks, vitamin C serums, and retinol-based products may already have a perpetual place in your routine.

Another one to add to the possible must-try list? A jade roller.

In the same way, your muscles feel more relaxed after a nice massage, the skin on your face can experience the same release of tension after being presented to the massaging techniques of a jade roller at least, that's what the skincare-obsessed side.

A jade roller is a small beauty tool that looks a lot like a mini paint roller for your face except it's made of stone and seems more attractive on your vanity.

Rooted in ancient Chinese medicine, a jade roller is a handheld massaging tool that you roll across your face in a back-and-forth motion for a few minutes at a time. Most companies that offer jade rollers promise that they help de-puff, firm the skin, increase circulation, and decrease inflammation.

The use of the gemstone jade plays a vital role here, thanks to its ability to maintain a cool temperature, despite being exposed to body heat. One of the ways to tell if it's jade in the first place is to place the stone in the palm of your hand. If it warms up, then it's not jade.

How do you use a jade roller?

follow steps for face rolling, below:

1.   Neck: Start with the neck to open channels of circulation. Place the roller in the back at the top of your neck, and roll downwards along the sides. Then, move to the front and roll from the jawline down to the collarbone.

2.   Cheeks: Place the roller in the middle of your face, and push it outward toward the sides.

3.   Forehead: Roll from your hairline down to your eyebrow. Then, take the roller between your brows and pull it horizontally toward your temple and repeat on the other brow.

4.   Eyes: Gently roll horizontally from the outer corner of your eye toward the inner corner and repeat on the other eye.

How often should you use a jade roller?

It's important to note that the results won't last forever, so to see any effects, you'll have to keep it up. Chiu suggests using your jade roller daily and whenever you do your skincare routine.

The whole process should take two to four minutes, depending on how many passes you're doing and how many areas of the face you're hitting. As you're working the jade roller, you'll see your skin start to flush — this is a good thing! It means circulation is increasing.

 

Jade rolling is a good first step for anyone interested in natural skincare, but if you're looking for a tool and technique for a more sculpted look, Chiu suggests Gua Sha, a similar but different technique used in Chinese medicine instead.
