Save some space in your freezer for this genius tool. Biological Refrigerator
If you're looking for a facial tool to facilitate a soothing massage while depuffing and encouraging blood flow, look no further: the best ice rollers make it easy. Aside from providing your serums and moisturizers with a cooling, spa-level boost, these routine essentials can also play a major part in helping you fake a great night's sleep (even if you kept your eyes glued to TikTok for half of it).
Since ice rollers are typically stored in your skincare fridge or freezer, they work by constricting blood vessels in the face, which minimizes irritation and inflammation as well as puffiness. Depending on your skincare needs, you can opt for a tool with a wider roller head to your essentials that massages the entire face, or something smaller for an area like the under-eyes.
Whether you're looking to take a literal chill pill after a stressful day, or simply upgrade your regimen we've pulled together a short list of the best ice rollers for face from popular brands like Kitsch, Tarte Cosmetics, and more, with most available for $30 or less.
With over 21,000 customer reviews and close to a five-star rating on Amazon, this best-selling ice roller is clearly a skin tool hit among beauty enthusiasts. Plus, it's nicely available in nine different color options to suit your beauty aesthetic.
"If you've seen Euphoria, you know the iconic scene that led me to this purchase. Almost a year later I still use this product regularly and I find on the early mornings it really makes a difference in puffiness around my eyes and face. It's super relaxing as well and recommend this product to anyone looking to up their morning routine game." —Emily
You can save 22 percent on this top-rated surgical stainless steel roller from Kitsch, which features an ergonomic handle that makes it extra comfortable to hold.
"Love this face roller so much, it’s small but mighty. Stays cold for a long time and feels wonderful!" —Allison
Here's a compact ice roller from Finishing Touch packs nicely in a carry-on, and features a quick-freeze gel that takes no more than 15 minutes to cool for quick relief.
"I honestly never write reviews myself but I always read them before buying. So let me be clear…$10 is an amazing steal for this thing. It stays cold for about 30 minutes with constant rolling on my face and neck. One of my top purchases at the moment. Buy it. Don’t hesitate." —james
You won't have to worry about putting too much pressure on your eyes while rolling this coveted tool over your face, since it's designed with a curved head that helps keep them protected.
"Where has this been all my life?! This ice roller is an absolute must. I use it every morning when I wake up and it refreshes me for the day and de-puffs and smooths my face before applying lotions etc. Such good value!" —Eric & Janicke
In addition to depuffing, sculpting, and soothing irritated skin, effective ice rollers, like this one from Skin Gym, can also come in handy to ease migraines and tension headaches when used on the temples and forehead.
"This is amazing for early-morning risers, who need a quick skincare routine. It really helps me wake up, and it feels so nice on my skin. Highly recommend!" —Rachel
Created by aesthetician Kerry Benjamin, this egg-shaped and ergonomic roller makes it easy to soothe sensitive and acne-prone skin irritation while enhancing your natural face contours.
"I love my ice roller! It is much larger than many rollers on the market and it stays chilled for the time I need to complete my face rolling. It has helped my skin to calm down its redness and to de-puff around my eye area! Thank you Stacked Skincare!" —Kimberly
You'll get two rollers for the price of one with this icy duo from Vanity Planet. Its professional-level Revive Facial rollers have detachable stainless steel heads, which are designed to stay cold for up to two hours. And since they're ideal to use on your face, neck, and décolletage, we're betting you'll get plenty of use out of this coveted set.
"I love to use this ice roller first thing with my morning skin prep. It wakes my skin up and reduces puffiness. It's like a cup of coffee for my face!" —Melissa J.
We're not going to compare this roller from the skincare experts at 001 Skincare London to your morning cup of coffee, but reaching for it first thing might help you feel more alert and ready to tackle the day. And since it maintains a consistent temperature of 17 to 36-degrees Fahrenheit, it works quickly to help your face look even more snatched.
"This is the only beauty gadget that I kept using everyday because my skin got better and better. The temperature is right, the build is right I've been using this everyday and it's performing very consistently without falling apart. Yes there are cheaper knockoffs but my experience told me that I see faults in them very quickly after a few use." —Milly M.
Using this rechargeable and versatile roller is like having four tools in one, since it's made for both the face and body, and can either heat up or cool down depending on your skincare needs. It contains a set of stainless steel roller balls powered by sonic technology that provide anti-inflammatory benefits when iced, and increase your skin's product absorption when heated.
"This tool is sooo relaxing. It is so great for soothing and relaxing muscles. 10/10 definitely recommend." —Alana
Consider this best-selling ice tool a stylish upgrade to your skincare collection. After freezing it for at least 15 minutes, roll the stainless steel device in upward motions along your forehead, cheeks, and jawline to reduce puffiness in a flash.
Tarte's bite-size, cool-to-the-touch roller is perfectly optimized for puffy under-eyes, and pairs nicely with your favorite cream, or a set of hardworking masks.
"This is very cute and tiny. It can be a little difficult to maneuver in the eye area, but the cooling sensation is nice." —Fran B.
This dual-ended tool from BeautyBio may look like a regular face roller, but it's actually designed to chill down to 45 degrees Fahrenheit for optimal firming benefits.
"This feels absolute amazing on your skin! It really does what it promises. I can see the de-puffing effect under my eyes and the sculpting of my cheekbones. It is such a nice wake-up in the morning! I have also used it at night, after microneedling and applying my products to help with absorption and that feels great too. I love my cryo roller!" —Krista
All you need are two fingers and your favorite sheet mask to take advantage of this ice roller's soothing benefits. And since it comes with a branded cup for storage, it's also super easy to keep track of.
"Great size, convenient for throwing in a bag without taking up much space at all. Works well and a steal at the price. Buy one today!" —Charmaine M.
Give your favorite face mask a boost with this tool that's made with a smaller head for a more targeted approach to skincare. Whether you're looking to reduce all over redness or just quickly cool down, this handy roller has you covered.
