The jade roller, a massaging roller with a jade stone, is THE new on-trend beauty accessory! You have no doubt heard of it, but you might still be wondering what secrets are concealed behind its pretty pastel colours? Follow our guide to find out more about its benefits and use.
1. What are the benefits of the jade roller?
First of all, jade is a small stone from China that is widely reputed to repel negative vibes, attract good fortune and soothe the skin. Used since ancient times in skincare and beauty rituals in traditional Chinese medicine, the jade roller is a facial massage tool said to have collagen-stimulating properties. It has long been a favourite with women due its reputation for maintaining youthful-looking skin.
Fast-forward a few years and the jade roller is now making its comeback as a new star in our beauty routines! This is hardly surprising because, as well as being a self-care accessory thanks to its self-massaging application, the jade roller has many advantages for our skin. Its two smooth and gentle jade rollers provide a firming and detoxifying effect on the skin while helping to release tension in the facial muscles.
A truly relaxing experience and a unique sensorial boost for the skin and mind!
2. How should you use it?
Now that you know all about the history and reputed benefits of the jade roller, we will explain a few techniques to help you achieve maximum effectiveness on your skin.
One of the first things to point out is that, as well as massaging the outer contours of your face and below your eyes, you can also use the jade roller on your neck and décolleté. Massage your skin with the jade roller in the morning and/or evening, preferably after applying your serum or day cream.
Use it in combination with the anti-ageing products from the Crème Prodigieuse® Boost, Merveillance® Expert, Nuxuriance® Ultra or Nuxuriance® Gold ranges, the NUXE BIO Organic Essential Antioxidant Serum or the moisturising products from the Crème Fraîche® de Beauté line.
In the morning, it provides a stimulating and invigorating effect, and in the evening, it helps to relax your muscles at the end of the day. You should therefore ideally use it both morning and evening, but at least once a day and regularly to have any real effect on your skin.
