The skincare world is filled with tips, tricks and products that promise to help us get our best skin ever. A few years ago, face rollers became one of the biggest skincare trends, with rollers made from jade or rose quartz promising to help improve circulation and collagen production, reduce puffiness and ultimately, leave our skin looking healthier and younger.
Ice rollers, like the LATME Ice Roller, are the latest skincare gadget that promise the same benefits of face rollers while helping to minimize pores, soothe redness and minimize fine lines and wrinkles.
LATME Ice Roller
SHOP IT: Amazon, from $16
What is it?
The LATME Ice Roller is a reusable roller treatment that you can use as part of your daily skincare routine. The removable ice roller head should be stored in your freezer and attached to the roller handle before use. Massage your face with the cold roller for approximately two to three minutes per day to alleviate puffiness, redness, improves circulation, lifts and firms skin as well as tightens pores and reduces the appearances of fine lines and wrinkles.
Ice rolling is a great way to prep your skin in the morning before makeup application so that your skin looks refreshed and glowing for the rest of the day. LATME’s roller can also be used to soothe irritated skin, from painful acne, irritated skin and even help reduce headaches.
What people are saying
The LATME Ice Roller is the best-selling eye roller on Amazon, with more than 3,000 customer reviews and an impressive 4.6-star rating. It’s earned rave reviews as an affordable way to tackle morning puffiness and help improve the overall look and feel of the skin.
“I often wake up with a puffy face, and bought this on a whim after realizing face masks and cold spoons were no longer doing the trick,” one shopper wrote. “I was pleasantly surprised by this little gadget! While I will say the width of the ice roller is versatile, a mini version for the under-eye area would be a sweet upgrade. It still works quite well though, and I have been quite pleased with how it brings down inflammation and feels really good on a hot summer day!”
“This very inexpensive roller is a must for your facial toolbox for both men and women. Just a couple minutes and any puffiness in your face is gone...I wake up with bags under my eyes due to lack of sleep, pull out my ice roller [and] go over my face with a little extra TLC to my eye area, and voila! The bags are completely gone!” another wrote. “I use this nightly for two to three minutes and when needed in the morning. The more I use it, the less puffiness and bags I have. It’s great for lymphatic drain as well!”
Other shoppers have called the ice roller a must-have to soothe headaches and migraines. Instead of using a damp cloth, the ice roller remains colder for longer and creates less of a mess than ice cubes or packs.
“This product helped me a lot with my headaches, whenever I get stressed out or when I need to calm my skin,” an Amazon shopper said. “Furthermore, it also helps with pain relief on my neck whenever I'm studying. I use to only use ice cubes before using the ice roller but it didn't feel so good, I didn't like the texture of a cube against my skin.”
Verdict
The LATME Ice Roller is a convenient upgrade on the frozen spoon trick to remove under-eye bags and puffiness. The roller is easy to clean and store - and can be ready to use within 15 minutes of freezer time.
If you’re a skincare lover or looking to soothe headaches - LATME’s ice roller might be a worthy investment.
