The history of ice facials: a skincare secret that’s here to stay
Ice facials have been around for thousands of years, with roots in ancient beauty rituals. The Egyptians and Greeks were early adopters, using cold water therapies to boost beauty and skin health. The Romans took it further in their famous bathhouses, where people alternated between hot and cold water to refresh the skin and energize the body.
In Asia, cold treatments have deep roots, especially in Japan and Korea. Japanese beauty routines have long included cold water for its skin-toning benefits and its power to bring vitality to the complexion.
Today, ice facials are still going strong, thanks to celebs like Bella Hadid, Jennifer Aniston, Kerry Washington, Eva Mendes, and Kim Kardashian. They’ve all shared how ice facials help reduce puffiness and brighten the skin. Even Marilyn Monroe was reportedly a fan—she used ice to get that radiant look and fight puffiness before photoshoots. Her dedication to skincare has inspired beauty lovers for decades, keeping the ice facial trend alive and thriving.
So, what makes ice facials so popular? They’re simple, effective, and refreshing, giving the skin a natural glow without any complicated steps. As this ancient practice gets a modern twist, products like FACE DUNK make it even easier to get all the benefits safely and comfortably.
Benefits of Ice Facials
Ice facials have a bunch of perks:
- Reduced Puffiness: Cold temperatures help tighten blood vessels, reducing puffiness, especially around the eyes.
- Boosted Circulation: The cooling effect promotes blood flow, giving you a healthy glow and wakes up tired skin.
- Minimised Pores: Cold exposure temporarily tightens pores, making your skin look smoother.
- Soothed Inflammation: Great for sensitive or acne-prone skin, ice facials can reduce redness and irritation.
- Enhanced Product Absorption: Pairing ice with serums helps skin soak up products better, maximising your skincare routine’s impact.
