Two years ago I bought this $24 Ice roller from Amazon and it’s become a longtime love. For a while it got buried in the freezer only to recently re-surface, and I forgot how much I loved it!
I wrote this post a long time ago, but I’m reviving it because if you don’t have one yet, I think it’s the most fun, affordable little self-care gift you could purchase for yourself.
WHAT IS AN ICE ROLLER? WHAT DOES AN ICE ROLLER DO?
An ice roller is pretty much what it sounds like–a facial massager device that you roll over your face. Depending on the model, it can either be filled with water/gel on the inside so it can withstand cold temperatures, or there is also the stainless steel ice roller so it gets SUPER cold. It’s just personal preference I guess–I have not tried the stainless steel version!
Store it in the freezer for some cold therapy and use it every day as part of your skincare routine or at the very least, keep it in there and pull it out for a spa-like treatment you can do at home!
SHORT-TERM BENEFITS:
LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE AND DE-PUFFING:
You may have heard of lymphatic massage, and this is the same thing, just way cheaper! It aids in increasing blood flow, draining fluid, and therefore, de-puffing your face. This is especially effective on under-eyes right after you’ve woken up. (Especially after a few too many martinis the night before.) It really helps you look and feel more awake, and is a really nice way to start or end the day.
SOOTHES AND REDUCES INFLAMMATION:
If your skin is super inflamed, whether it’s because it’s acting up or right after you’ve had a facial, an ice roller is the BEST way to help it recover. The massage part will stimulate blood flow, soothe your skin and help speed the recovery process and reduce redness. Ice rolling helps constrict blood vessels and reduces the appearance of broken capillaries, too!
ALLEVIATES SORE MUSCLES:
Ice rollers are beneficial for your face and body! They’re great for aches and sore muscles anywhere on your body! Just apply where you’re feeling pain for cold therapy relief!
