Almeera Beauty Toolkit - Gua Sha + Facial Roller

Why use a facial roller?

• Stimulates collagen production, increasing strength and buoyancy of skin cells - reducing wrinkles
• Helps with under-eye puffiness and dark circles by increasing blood circulation to the under-eye area
• Reduces breakouts as it reduces inflammation by bringing down fluids that accumulate around pimples
• Stimulates blood flow around the face, increasing brightness, and firmness
• Helps products penetrate more deeply into the skin, allowing for increased hydration
• Stainless steel provides a cooling and soothing effect.
  
  

Why use gua sha?

• Acts as a natural facelift - gua sha helps lift, sculpt and tighten the face without any surgery
• A natural approach to botox - regular use can reduce signs of ageing, such as sagging, dull and wrinkled skin
• Creates a supple, glowing appearance by taking away toxins, increasing flow of oxygen and nutrients and boosting circulation
• Reduces facial puffiness
• Helps release tension in the face, allowing all of the facial muscles to do their job properly. This is perfect for headache sufferers and also reduces fine lines!

Why are stainless steel tools better than jade and rose quartz?

• Antibacterial - Rose quartz and jade rollers are porous so they harbour bacteria and can spread this bacteria around your face, causing breakouts. Stainless steel is an antibacterial material so it won’t spread bacteria around your face, keeping your skin fresh, clear and glowing!
• Self-cooling - Stainless steel is a naturally cool material, so it reduces inflammation and puffiness in the face. You will also experience an amazing soothing effect when you use it. 
• Eco-friendly - The mining of rose quartz and jade rollers is harmful for the environment, whereas stainless steel is an eco-friendly material.
