The jade roller is an ancient-meets-modern concept designed especially for facial massage. As the name suggests, it’s a roller made out of jade (no surprises there, then), a precious stone which has been used for centuries in traditional Chinese practice. Along with the high-quality roller, boasting 0.2-millimeter needles, we like that this comes with a serum that touts some proven anti-aging ingredients, namely hyaluronic acid and growth factors. It’s a dynamic duo that can help to improve skin tone and texture. FYI, the serum is meant to be applied pre-rolling, which is different than in some other systems. Okay, fine, this isn’t technically a roller, but it produces the same great results as the rest of the products on this list.

It features five different speed settings and adjustable needle heads that vary in length from 0.25 millimeters to 2 millimeters, making for a truly customizable treatment. The pen can be used on both the face and body to reduce the appearance of scars, lines, and stretch marks. Even cooler? It can even be used on the scalp to stimulate hair growth. Note: You may notice some slight tingle when using this derma roller, but that's just par for the course. Even if you only have a few minutes, you may still be able to get some of the de-stressing and potentially de-puffing benefits.
