Healthy Glow
Celebrity facialist Ole Henriksen incorporate ice cubes into his treatments to improve circulation in skin for that healthy glow. Brew and freeze rosehip seed tea which is high in Vitamin C, wrap the ice-cube in a thin cotton handkerchief and massage it across the skin.
Alternatively, aesthetician Renee Rouleau suggest to put ice on skin, after serum application as the capillaries restricts and create a pulling effect that helps ingredients penetrate deeper.
Supermodel, Kate Moss has also been known to submerge her face in a sink of icy water to counteract morning-after puffiness.

2) Wrap ice cubes in gauze and slide the cubes from the inner eye corners up towards the brow in a circular motion.
