Crystal rolling has been popular among beauty junkies for a couple of years now. Some may be skeptical of the effects, saying that it might simply be placebo. But experts have explained that jade, rose quartz, and other crystal rollers do benefit your skin in many ways. These include revitalizing your complexion, improving skin tone and elasticity, and increases circulation to release toxins.
Meanwhile, there are also other ways you can make the most out of your crystal roller. We’ve listed some tricks that’ll not only help your skin, but also give your skincare products that much-needed boost.
