Jade
According to traditional Chinese medicine, jade has healing energy and can help balance your inner energy, relax your nervous system and bring a sense of harmony and balance. In terms of function, while all facial rollers help reduce puffiness and promote lymphatic function, jade rollers are usually a little more resistant to the skin because they are not as smooth as other crystals such as rose quartz or amethyst. Because of this, many users often report that they find jade rollers have a greater impact on contouring and/or lifting the skin.
Rose Quartz
The ancient Egyptians believed that rose quartz crystals had anti-aging properties. It was believed that the goddess Isis would collect rose quartz crystals along the Nile River and use them to keep her skin fresh and wrinkle-free. Rose Quartz is also known as the love stone and is valued for its unconditional love, self-care, happiness, healing and anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore, if you suffer from sensitive, easily reactive skin, or inflammatory skin conditions such as rosacea, then the Cooling Rose Quartz Facial Roller is perfect for you.
The Verdict
We believe you can't go wrong with either of these stones, as both rollers can help remove puffiness, promote lymphatic drainage, and be used with serums, masks, facial oils and moisturizers to help promote their absorption.
In short, Emerald is a stone known for its peace, wisdom and balance, while Rose Quartz is a crystal known for enhancing things associated with love. In addition to the color difference, Emerald's molecular structure also dissipates heat more readily than Rose Quartz, so you can expect your Rose Quartz roller to stay cooler a little longer, while Emerald is better if you're looking to help sculpt your skin as well.
