5 Ice Rollers To Instantly Reduce Puffiness and Redness

Ice roller

Ice rollers are the latest beauty craze for skincare lovers, providing instant relief for puffiness and redness.

They are brilliant in summer on a hot day to cool the skin down in seconds.

Originally used in Europe and Asia, ice rollers are becoming an increasingly popular trend amongst skincare fanatics.

Face rollers became prominent in China thousands of years ago, where jade (a semi-precious stone) was rolled on the face. This was believed to have energy-healing properties while keeping the skin youthful and cool. 

Extremely easy to use, an ice roller mirrors the process of pressing ice on the skin, normally done with an ice cube or even a bag of peas.

Ice rollers are another version of the standard face roller.

It is a handheld gadget filled with water and gel, that when applied on the face can reduce puffiness and redness while at the same time firm the skin. You can keep it in the fridge or even the freezer for great effects.

What are the benefits of an ice roller?

When ice is applied onto the skin, the blood vessels contract leaving pores smaller and temporarily tightening the skin.

An ice roller can be used anywhere that needs a de-puffing or where the skin is red. It is however generally used on the face, neck area and around the eyes.

Not only does it have benefits for the face, it can be used across the entire body.

Ice rollers will instantly transform the skin.

Three ways to use an ice roller on different parts on the body:

An ice roller can be used to reduce bruises: By moving the roller in an upwards direction on the bruised area. Make sure not to press too hard or the bruise will deepen.

Using an ice roller to reduce headaches and migraines: roll the ice roller gently on temples, forehead, above the eyes and around the neck.

Using an ice roller for muscle strain: roll it along the strain for an extended period of time. Remember to keep the ice roller cold, even if that means sticking it back in the freezer for a little bit.

How is an ice roller used?

Simply store the ice roller in the freezer or leave it in a bowl of icy water approximately 15 minutes prior to using.

This depends on the usage instructions of your specific roller as different brands may have different freezing methods.

When rolling it on the face, use upward and outward motions like you would any other face tool and roll in specific areas of concern three to four times.

However, make sure not to press too hard to prevent damaging the skin.

Ice rollers are ideal for everyday use to achieve long-term results.

Five to ten minute sessions are ideal, with daily use highly recommended.

Long term use of an ice roller also has benefits such as preventing wrinkles and creating a lifting effect on the areas it is used, especially the face.
