I’ll admit it: For the majority of my skincare-using life, I viewed some of the best facial tools as merely unnecessary gimmicks. To me, it seemed virtually impossible that rubbing a dual-ended stone or metal gadget all over my face would really yield any kind of visible results. Because of the nature of my job—and just, well, my nature in general—I’m generally pretty skeptical of the never-ending cycle of new beauty fads—especially ones that are suspiciously endorsed by Instagram gurus and YouTubers—but I’ve recently become curiously intrigued by these beauty tools.
Facial rollers are most commonly used to improve blood flow, which in turn can actually help all of your topical skincare formulas absorb better, thereby making them work better. Many facial gadgets are also praised for their ability to reduce puffiness and create a sharper-looking contour (especially when you use them consistently). Massaging your skin with one of these cult-favorite tools helps to promote lymphatic drainage. Basically, we have lymphatic channels all over our body to help our immune system ward off infection, but because they don’t have valves, fluid can pool easily, causing puffiness and swelling.
Using a beauty tool to massage your face is also thought to help relax muscle tension from teeth clenching and aid in releasing built-up toxins that cause fluid retention and less definition across your contours. I’ve been using them pretty frequently for the past year or so, and I guess you can say I’m now a reformed believer in these little gadgets. Ahead, I’ve rounded up a few of my favorites to test out for yourself.
