If you are skincare obsessed, I’m sure you have seen the latest beauty secret to hit TikTok. These stunning little beauty tools might seem like the latest hype, but they are actually ancient healing tools that can be great for our health, wellbeing and skin. So, let’s learn exactly how to use a rose quartz roller and all the benefits it will bring.

What is Rose Quartz?

Rose quartz stones have been around since 7000bc. Today, they have become one of the most used crystals as it one of the most powerful. Rose Quartz is the ultimate beauty crystal known as the Crystal of Venus, the goddess of love and beauty. Rose quartz opens and purifies the heart at all levels, while delivering inner healing and clear complexity. It can be used to reduce and release impurities and stress in the skin. Its best for detoxing, lifting, and softening fine lines and wrinkles, alongside draining toxins and negativity.

Face roller benefits

You have probably seen brands and influences claiming a whole number of benefits when using a rose quartz roller. We’ve hit the science and turns out there is an array of backed benefits.

Promotes circulation

Using a face roller can promote blood flow to the face, which in turn may help to make your skin brighter.

Reduces puffiness

It is suggested that using a face roller may help to reduce puffiness by stimulating lymphatic drainage. There is evidence suggesting that this type of massage is linked to reduced swelling.

Boost mood

There is some evidence suggesting that facial massage may help to boost your mood. An older study found that a facial massage reduced anxiety in some people. As the sympathetic nervous system is responsible for alertness, the researchers suggested that facial massage can help someone feel refreshed.

Cools and soothes skin

Storing your roller in the refrigerator will cool your skin on contact. The benefits of this are still to be determined, but some people may enjoy how it feels.

Skin tightening

There is a suggested link between regular facial massage and firmer skin. A study found that massaging skin twice daily led to increased levels of proteins in the skin tissue and improved wrinkle appearance in participants using a massage device.

How often should you use a face roller

It is ideal to use your roller daily. Fewer than 3 days per week may not produce your desired results. Some studies suggest that better results are seen after long-term use.

Morning vs Night Use

You can use your face roller day or night. The morning provides the face a chance to wake up, depuff and energise the skin. An evening facial roll is the chance to aid relaxation and relieve muscle tension after a busy day.

How to use a face roller

1. Cleanse your face then apply your favourite serum on your skin.
2. Roll using the wide end of the roller in upward and outward strokes. Repeat strokes 5-10 times in each area. Keep in mind that you don’t have to press hard. Just let the roller glide over your skin with ease.
3. Starting from the base of your neck and gently roll towards your chin.
4. Next, move onto the jaw line and chin, continuing with the outward strokes.
5. From there, move the roller up along one cheek at a time, and then outwards towards each ear.
6. With the smaller roller, try to get the contours of your nose. Start at the bridge of the nose and work your way outwards and upwards.
7. Again, with the smaller roller, start very gently rolling around the eye area. Above and below the eye. This help eliminate the eye’s dark circles and puffiness.’
8. Then, place the large end of the facial roller on to the eyebrows, and roll outwards, ending at the temples.
9. Finally, roll from the eyebrows upwards to the hairline, moving across the forehead, after 5-10 gliding motions in each line.
10. Once finished with the routine, clean the roller with a damp cloth and make sure it is thoroughly dry before storing.

How to clean a rose quartz face roller

It’s always best to clean your roller after each use. This is to remove any serums or excess oils that have built up on your beauty tool. Although rose quartz is non-porous, meaning it will not absorb any of the skin products you apply to you skin before using it, it can still collect dust and dirt over time if not cleaned.

To clean, simply take a damp cloth and wipe down the face roller thoroughly after every use. If you prefer a deep clean, wash the roller with a natural soap for 15-30 seconds and rinse with water. Always wipe down your roller with a dry towel and let it completely dry before storing it. This will ensure the roller does not rust or erode.

How to store a rose quartz face roller

It’s a good idea to keep your roller in the fridge in a seal tight bag. Whilst most crystal rollers stay cold naturally, using an extra-chilled tool helps to reduce puffiness around your cheeks, eyes, and neck. When not storing in the fridge, wrap in a soft, dry cloth and store it in a cool place.
