Do’s & Don’ts:

• Do not use more than 2 ice cubes. Using too many can cause skin problems that ca make situations worse.
• Only use ice cubes wrapped in a clean cloth (gauze). The capillaries under the skin ca break if you use the idea directly on the skin.
• Keep ice moving in circular movements.

Tips for getting the most out of ice cube face massage

For best results, use filtered or bottled water for your ice cubes to avoid impurities. Dilute the ice cubes if you have sensitive skin. Always wrap the ice cube in a clean cloth to protect your skin from the cold. Massage your face in circular motions, focusing on inflamed areas, for a maximum of two minutes. After the massage, apply moisturizer for additional hydration.
