When it comes to the beauty world, things move fast. One minute the hot topic is dry brushing, the next is an acne light mask. Yet, there are a few methods that have been around for years, and are just now being used widely.
One of those methods is Jade Rollers. Jade, known traditionally in folklore as a stone of good luck, it also comes in handy as a skin serum superhero. Touted for its ability to promote circulation, this roller has myriad uses. It has two ends of different sizes--the smaller is perfect for the T-Zone area.
Now let's talk benefits of the roller:
Accessible: Use it any time of the day that your skin needs a little pick-me-up.
Soothing: This stone is perfect to place in the freezer to give it a chill. It'll calm the skin and de-puff any swollen areas. For instance, mornings that you wake up with bags under your eyes.
Applicator: Tired of using finger tips for serum application? A Jade Roller offers the perfect solution. Applies smoothly and lasts long.
Since it's obvious this is a serum's BFF, we figured what better a way to kickstart using the roller than with a DIY Serum?
