How to Clean a Jade Roller

You give a quick face massage with a roller to depuff the aftermath of the weekend. But as you roll through the week — pun intended — have you ever thought to yourself, "I should probably wash that," and then stuck your facial roller back on the shelf next to the other brushes you keep meaning to wash? The answer is probably yes.

The head of your facial roller is made from semiprecious stones, such as jade or quartz that are fragile like the fine hairs of a makeup brush. 

Dust particles can gather on the tool - plus, you don’t want to spread any bacteria back onto your skin.

The good news is that it's actually far easier to clean a jade roller than you'd think.

To clean your facial roller, wipe the stone clean with a damp cloth or soft towel, and never wipe with very hot water or soak in water.

For a deeper clean, use a gentle soap or cleanser to wipe away product build-up and kill bacteria.

To dry, leave it on a soft cloth or towel and leave to dry. If your roller is squeaky clean - literally, try adding a few drops of your favourite facial oil to the joints on the head
