As fans of daily facial rolling, we have been in love with True Botanical's Moonstone Radiance Facial Roller that is gorgeous, high quality, and easy to use. The routine we have been using lately as the temperature is cooling off and our skin is noticing, causing us to feel dryer and even a bit puffy in the morning. To combat our skin’s seasonal change we like placing our moonstone Facial Roller in the fridge or in a bowl of ice water. The steps to prep your skin for facial rolling are fairly nonchalant; first, cleanse the skin. Currently loving True Botanicals Pre Cleanse Oil and/or Renew Nourishing Cleanser both are perfectly gentle yet thoroughly cleanse our skin without stripping our natural oils. Next, choose your favorite serum or oil. If your skin is a bit more fragile and dry like ours as the temperatures outside drop, try the Repair Serum and Pure Radiance Oil, both products our skin soaks up.
Next, we like to Start Rolling! We have found that using our moonstone facial roller after we put serum or oil on first helps the roller to glide and presses in the products more deeply into our skin. The easiest way to begin is by starting by your nose. Stroke in an upward horizontal fashion from nose moving towards your hairline, working in short, gentle strokes repeating 4-6 times. Next, repeat this same motion (use the smaller side of the roller) around your eye area. Around your forehead and eyebrows, move motion upwards to the surrounding hairline. On your jaw, start in the middle, at your chin, and move upwards to your ear. The last but important step is your neck. Roll gently up and down your neck making way to your clavicle.
When finished rolling, feel free to add a facial cream or a few more Radiance Oil drops before heading off to bed.
When starting Facial Rolling, some areas may be more sensitive to pressure such as your muscles, lymph nodes, and sinuses which are dispersed throughout the facial region. By rolling over these regions, you help move along facial drainage of the lymph node and sinuses. Unlike the cardiovascular or respiratory system, the Lymphatic system has no pump. This is why movement like that from a facial roller can help massage fluids along to the nodes. Another benefit of using a roller is that it helps promote the circulation of blood to the area.
A trick we adore with our moonstone facial roller is to chill it in the fridge, or if we accidentally left it out -put the roller into a bowl of ice water. The cold temps are great for those with acne, pimple, larger pores, or sensitive skin, as the cold temps help with inflammation by causing the blood vessels to contract. And If you are a fan of sheet mask then don’t forget your facial roller, as you can help the mask serum penetrate more deeply into your skin by rolling over your mask. The Variety of ways to use a facial roller is why we keep Going back to ours, and we are sure you will be pulling our your roller often for that amazing skin glow.
