The act of jade rolling basically flattens out your wrinkles. The anti-inflammatory properties of jade also help cure any kind of redness or irritation on the skin. The jade stone stays cold naturally almost throughout the rolling process, which can tighten pores as well as reduce any under-eye problems.

How is jade rolling done?

You first put the roller in the freezer for a few hours. Make sure you cleanse and exfoliate your face while your roller is getting cold. Post this, apply a serum and moisturiser to your face so circulation is better when you start rolling. Begin the process and concentrate on your chest and forehead first. Make sure you use outward and upward motions while rolling. Move to your face and neck following the same movements and once done, wipe your face.
