8 Best Face Massage Tools & Devices For Younger Skin

You Need To Introduce One Of These Face Massage Tools To Your Beauty Routine

There was a time when facial massage was a luxury we only indulged in during a spa visit, but in recent years the rising popularity of Gua Sha and jade rollers has seen the treatment become a DIY affair.

Now a regular part of our beauty routine, face massage has been around for years – over 3000 to be a little more precise – and was originally practiced in China.

The heavenly feeling of relaxation brought about by facial massage is just a bonus to the true benefits the process can offer.

Facial massage promotes lymphatic drainage, meaning toxins are flushed from the skin at a faster rate, as well as stimulating blood flow and muscles to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. In other words, achieving the beauty goal we’re all chasing.

If you’re looking for more proof you should be adopting the practice immediately, a 2017 study found using massage while applying skincare actually improved the efficacy of the products.

Beauty tech has taken the anti-aging massage to a whole new level with the introduction of microcurrents, warming and tools dedicated to specific areas of the face (under eye bags, we’re looking at you).

Scroll on for our top picks of the best face massage tools on the market.
