3 Duo Rollers Set

Facial massage brings with it countless benefits, both for your skin and for your health. Practiced regularly, it stimulates blood circulation and accelerates lymphatic drainage, effectively reducing wrinkles and swelling of the face. Thanks to their many skin benefits, these natural stone facial massage devices , such as facial roll or gua sha stone, should not be missing from your daily care routine. In this article, we discuss how to get a facial massage with a roller or gua sha stones. Technique # 1: Roller Massage The key word in a roller facial massage is lymphatic drainage. Our goal with this type of massage is not only to relax the muscles, but also to push the lymph (the fluid full of toxins from the lymphatic system) out. Caution: Do not press too hard on the roller. Even if we push something out, it doesn't mean you have to push hard, otherwise you risk breaking the blood vessels. Be careful, the weight of the natural stone itself is enough to move the lymph. Let's start at collarbone height: using the massage roller , slowly massage the area of ​​the collarbone with up and down movements. It is important to relax and warm the throat before moving to the face to achieve lymphatic drainage. Continue moving along the neck. When you get to the jaw, it's time to change the pace a little. We replace the vertical movement with a horizontal up and down movement. Starting from the chin area, roll the cheek to the ear. You can insist on certain areas, depending on what feels better to you, but make sure you cover your entire cheek before moving on to the next part of your face. We will then massage the forehead, slowly returning to the eye area. For the forehead, it would be ideal to start from the middle, massaging horizontally, towards the temples. For eye massage, we recommend a duo facial roller, because the smaller stone is more suitable and easier to use on the eye area. Starting from the nose, gently massage the area under the eyes, towards the temples (the same movement you use when removing make-up). Last but not least, you can use the small stone of the roller to gently massage the eyebrows and the sides of the nose. Technique # 2: Gua sha Massage The gua sha stone massage is, in many ways, very similar to the facial roller. Here, too, it is important not to use too much pressure when massaging, to avoid bruising. Before starting the massage, you should apply generous amounts of oil, serum or a greasy cream to facilitate the movement of the stone. If you feel that you are pulling on the skin of your neck or face with a stone, it means that you have not hydrated enough. Neck Start again with the collarbone area, massaging upwards, along the neck, until reaching the stone somewhere behind the ear. It is well known that the muscles in this area accumulate a lot of tension and become tense, which also affects the appearance of the face, pulling the facial muscles down. For neck massage, we can use the part with the two curved tips or the long side parts. We then come to the center to cover the whole neck with the gua sha. Face We will use the whole part with two curved points for the jawline, insisting on the ear area, because this is where accumulated tension builds up. Then using one of the sides of the stone, we will massage along the cheek, pressing one of the corners in the cheek. For the eye area we will use one of the curved tips, but instead of pressing, we would rather draw lines with gua sha stone along the face. Keep a finger close to your nose to better stretch your skin. You can insist on the temples because here too, there is an important point of tension. And let's not forget the forehead, where we can use either the two curved tips or one of the sides of the stone to relax the muscles and complete the lymphatic drainage.

The facial roller is one of the most beloved beauty products of the season and rightly so: facial massage with the help of the roller has many benefits. It contributes to our inner health, to our mood, but also to a bright and velvety complexion. And because we've heard many women wonder if "facial massages actually work", we set out to answer this question here and explain its effects in detail. First of all, what is the facial roll? The facial roller can be equipped with one or two natural stones (such as quartz or sodalite) at one end. Some skincare products come with only a larger stone, while other rollers have both a larger and a smaller stone to cover more delicate areas (such as the eye area). The facial roll can have a smooth or textured surface, each of which offers certain specific benefits (which we discussed in another article). When and how often should the facial roller be used? Ideally, this facial massage device should be used twice a day, in the morning and in the evening, during the care ritual. The massage is performed after applying the cream or serum on the face, to facilitate their absorption (among other benefits). The roller should not be used for too long - even three to five minutes of daily massage can lead to the long-lasting benefits. But does it really work? Many people are wondering if facial roll massage can really have the promised benefits. And to answer this question, it is best to turn to experts. Studies show that facial roller massage contributes to lymphatic drainage, which in turn can reduce swelling (including under-eye bags). Through pressure, the facial roller subtly stimulates the lymph (the fluid-filled liquid in the lymphatic system) that is under the skin. The presence of these toxins contributes to the swelling of the skin, and the massage, pushing the toxins out, can give the skin a smooth and supple appearance. Facial massage also has an anti-aging effect, achieved by stimulating circulation. The pressure applied by the roller during the massage "awakens" the blood vessels and accelerates the circulation. This stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, two crucial elements for elastic skin, but also the production of new cells, which leads to a younger and more hydrated skin, improving the appearance of wrinkles. And speaking of well-being, facial roll massage can reduce anxiety. Most of the time, we don't even notice when the facial muscles are tense. It is believed that we "keep" a lot of tension in the jaw, and massaging and relaxing these muscles obviously eases this tension. Thus, in addition to the benefits on the skin, facial roll massage equally has an important effect on our mood. Facial Roll Myths As we have seen, there are many studies supporting the health benefits of a facial massage with natural stones. However, there are some so-called "myths" that lead to exaggerated expectations about the role of the facial roller and, inevitably, to disappointment. The facial roll does not help loose weight. Although it encourages lymphatic drainage and by releasing lymph, the face may appear slimer after the massage, the facial roll does not actually eliminate fat. The facial roll does not cure ailments, but it can improve them quite a bit. Dermatological conditions, such as acne, can be alleviated by regular massage, as it stimulates the circulation and production of new, healthy cells. Similarly, the facial roll relaxes the muscles of the face and neck, helping to alleviate pain due to some ailments, yet it won’t magically cure the ailment. It is important to understand what realistic expectations from facial roll massage look like so that you are not disappointed.
