A crucial part of beauty rituals around the world, rose quartz has been used for centuries to repair, de-stress and decongest complexions, thanks to its remarkable healing properties. Often referred to as ‘ice of the gods’, the exquisite powder pink stone is a firm favourite with crystal healers (look away cynics!), who advocate its ability to promote healthy heart and kidney function (circulation and the elimination of toxins are both essential for glowing skin), as well as its positive impact on acne, wrinkles and lymphatic drainage. A symbol of love, the stone promotes optimism and when massaged over the face and neck, it relaxes facial muscles – it's small size is particularly useful for the under-eye area – and gives both skin and emotions a much-needed 'lift'. Use around the eye orbital and you’ll soon see a difference in the texture, tone and clarity. With regular use, your fine lines appear lessened, dark circles diminishes, and you’ll notice a reduction in persistent wrinkles (it’s great for combatting ‘elevens’). Store in the fridge to enhance the relaxing and tightening benefits. You're guaranteed to fall head-over-heels for it.

Gently roll 3 times around the eye socket. Start from the upper inner edge where your nose hits your brow (there is a pressure point that is more sensitive than the rest of the area, this drains the sinuses when stimulated!) and move outwards, roll around the top and under the eye towards the tear duct, rocking it gently as you go.

Then place the roller vertically into the inner corner of the eye, using gentle rocking motion. Press lightly to encourage lymph drainage in the eye zone, ease blocked sinuses and reduce puffiness.

The perfect accompaniment to your facial oil of choice, this gorgeous roller is the ultimate relaxation aid, and makes a gorgeous gift for someone in need of a ‘lift’ (both emotionally and cosmetically). Made of pure rose quartz, this delicate stone helps deflect the electromagnetic radiation generated by the innumerable gadgets and gizmos we rely on day-to-day, while the therapeutic massage assists in de-puffing, de-creasing and boosting luminosity thanks to its ability to stimulate blood flow – which in turn, ‘feeds’ skin cells to enhance their function. And, because each roller is hand fashioned from real quartz, every one is unique! There will be fluctuations in colour, opacity and shape – which is all part of their charm. Small and perfectly formed, this roller acts just as intensive (quick-fix!) workout – boosting circulation and eliminating a puffy eye area. Perfect for counteracting tell-tale signs of too-late nights (or too many cocktails), this is also the ideal excuse for some end-of-day ‘me time’ – soothing post-work stresses and enhancing your evening time skin care routine.
