What Does A Jade Roller Do For Your Face? – Are They Worth The Hype!
Jade rollers are taking the skincare world by storm and are a firm favourite of many celebrities such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Kylie Minogue and Victoria Beckham and it’s hardly surprising when you find out the benefits to be had from using one.
But what does a jade roller do for your face?
Just to name a few you can be looking at fewer lines and wrinkles, reduced eye bags and firmer younger looking skin and that’s before we delve into the healing and spiritual benefits!
However the market is flooded with these little devices so it’s important when choosing yours you know all the facts so listen up because this will help you make your decision and lead you in to the right direction in choosing the best Jade roller for you.
So What Are Jade Rollers?
These are little hand held devices that traditionally use different crystals to roll over the skin to promote skin health and vitality.
Each crystal will have a different spiritual property.
The action of rolling the crystal over the skin stimulates blood flow which is important for cellular health. It will also improve circulation and lymphatic drainage this will improve puffiness and congestion within the skin.
As the jade roller moves over various pressure points this can improve health, calmness and tranquility.
The cooling effects of the crystals can have a constricting effect on the pores greatly reducing their size and appearance.
Increased microcirculaton gives the skin a beautiful natural glow and radiance. The Jade roller is also great for removing toxins from within the skin.
How Do You Know If Your Jade Roller Is Fake Or Genuine?
A traditional Jade roller should be made with authentic genuine crystals unfortunately there are many cheap knock offs on the market as companies catch on to this high demand product using fake plastic crystals in their rollers and unfortunately these are not easy to spot.
Jade and other crystals used in the rollers are traditionally difficult to calve so many companies will add chemicals to the beautiful crystal to soften it making this process easier but lessening the quality of what should be natural product.
My Recommendations
The Jade rollers I have found for you treat their crystals with the upmost respect, White Lotus will never use chemicals or dyes to enhance the colours only highly skilled craft men.
They also protect the rollers in silk as to not damage the crystals and when you buy one from them, yours will come presented in a silk lined box too.
White Lotus is the most trusted brand for the Jade roller and many other anti ageing products.
White Lotus was founded by husband and wife team who both hold degrees in Chinese medicine and acupuncture, with combined qualifications in herbal pharmacology and anti ageing techniques from the far east.
So for these reasons I would absolutely recommend nowhere else to get your jade rollers.
What Are The Different Types Of Crystal Rollers?
The rollers are available in different sizes for use on the face and the body, there is also double ended rollers with a tiny roller for getting around more delicate and harder to reach areas like around the nose and eyes.
This one would be amazing for anyone that has dark circles or puffiness around the eyes. The cool roller will relieve and revive tired eyes whilst the action of the roller will gently push away excess fluid relieving puffiness.
An intensive roller is a great option for using on the body as it stimulates the breakdown of toxins, increases blood flow and circulation this is great to used to aid in cellulite prone area.

The Power Of The Crystals
Jade
Jade is symbol of power and beauty and will remain cool when rolled over the skin making it perfect for this purpose, it elevates tension and gently eliminate excess lymphatic build up.

Jade has a detoxifying and anti inflammatory effect on the skin making it perfect for blemish prone, oily skin and anyone with acne.
Rose Quartz
Rose quartz promotes love, healing and compassion. It is known for its amazing healing properties and when used over the skin you can benefit from its anti ageing rewards as systematic use will improve fines line and wrinkles, improve lymphatic drainage and improve micro circulation.

Rose quartz can both clear inflammation and nourish tired skin so it is perfect for combination, blemish, sensitive or acne prone skin types.
Amethyst
This beautiful crystal is said to be great for the mind and increase concentration.
It is also considered to be the crystal of protection and was given to solders to protect them from getting hurt.
Many believe it has a special connection with the third eye so it is especially good for the frown lines.

Amethyst is especially good for tired ageing and thinning skin. It has great toning properties enhancing the look of dull tired skin.
It is partially good for dry sensitive skin types.
Tourmaline
The spiritual properties of this crystal is to move stagnant energy, it is also the crystal of psychic protection and spiritual grounding.

Black Tourmaline increases blood circulation and transforms stagnation to reduce puffiness and sagging skin.
Suitable for oily, normal and sensitive skin types.
Clear quartz
This is the master healer, it can be used on very sensitive skin and is said to amplify positive intentions.

This has a harmonising effect on the skin so is suitable for any skin type.
Final Thoughts
When choosing your Jade roller it really is a very personal experience and not a one size fits all, something White Lotus really understands and something I’ve really enjoyed learning about.
There really is one for you and it’s a spiritual journey as well as a skincare journey which is quite exciting.
I’d love to here your thoughts on this and if you have any experiences to share so please add them in the comments below.


I’ve got the tradition jade roller (I say I, it’s the wife’s) she does my puffy eyes with it and it works great for me. It feels really nice actually, it’s very cooling and relaxing and takes the swelling right down. It’s always worse this time of year as I get hay fever so the roller is a god send as meds make me tired.
Hi Jack
That’s really great! the jade Roller is amazing for reducing puffiness around the eyes and I’m sure many people will relate to your problem with hay fever and medication making them drowsy but with the jade roller you get non of the side effects but all of the benefits, I’m so glad it works for you.
Thank you so much for your comment. It will be helpful for others to read this.
I really like the AluminEYE dark circles and puffiness, it would be great to use with the roller!
Cheers for that, i’ll give that a go!
Perfect, get in touch Jack and we can sort that for you.
Hi Amy, would one of these be good for my puffy eyes, I absolulely love those cooling gel eye things I got from you last time, i’m definitely getting some more of thoses!
i’d like to try the Alumineye too.
The Eye Resue Pads are amazing aren’t they!! The AluminEye is a gorgeous product for dark circles and puffiness, but you can absolutely use the roller along side these products, it will help aid circulation and lymphatic drainage, win win!
Get in touch Cheryl if you want anything.
hey Amy,
So glad to have found your website! I keep seeing these rollers everywhere on social media and there are soo many cheap knockoffs because this is such a high-selling trend right now. I love how you have talked about the different types available and how to pick the authentic ones that give optimum benefits.
One question popped up in my mind about the crystals they contain and was wondering what your thoughts were on this. Do you think it is a good idea to use a serum on the face before you use a jade roller or is that too abrasive? I saw some youtube gurus recommenced this skincare routine in their videos and always wondered how beneficial it is. Now that you mention that the original jade rollers have genuine crystals in them, applying a serum beforehand ..will it further enhance skin or have no effect? have you tried it yourself? Would love to hear your input!
Thanks in advance,
Sasha
Hi Sascha, I understand what you’re saying but actually the rollers are not at all abrasive so they are completely safe to use with your skincare serums, if you buy a genuine roller like The White Lotus Roller you know you are not going to be using anything harmful on your skin.
Hello,
Well done on such an informative and in-depth article. I’m aware that massaging the face, even with your fingers, has excellent benefits, but I’m sure the jade rollers are a significant step up from your fingers in terms of the benefits. It’s crazy to see how many different types there are. This is something I really need to get into, so thanks for sharing it in such a clear way.
Keep up the good work!
Sharon
