Why dunking your face in ice water beats direct ice application
Let’s be real: dunking your face into a bowl of ice water might sound like a ridiculous dare rather than a beauty ritual. Yet, ice water facials have taken over TikTok, and celebrities like Sydney Sweeney and Bella Hadid are obsessed with them. The buzz isn’t just hype – there are a few reasons why this icy plunge is better for your skin than directly applying ice cubes. Here’s the lowdown on why dunking is your skin's new BFF.
Dunk, Don’t Rub: Why Ice Water is Safer
Directly rubbing ice on your skin might seem like an obvious thing to do, but it can actually be harsh. When you use ice directly on your skin, the super-cold temperature can actually damage your skin's natural barrier, especially if you’re targeting just one spot. Plus, let’s be honest – trying to swipe an ice cube across your face is awkward and can leave you shivering instead of glowing.
Dunking, on the other hand, gives you a balanced, full-face treatment without the harsh cold. When you submerge your face in iced water after the ice melts, the temperature is distributed evenly across your skin. This gentle approach helps reduce inflammation and puffiness without the risk of damaging your skin. It’s a full-face refresh that’s as safe as it is effective.
Benefits Beyond the Cold: Hydration and Absorption
One of the coolest parts of ice water facials is that they don’t just freeze your face for a glow-up; they hydrate, too. When you dunk, your skin gets a quick splash of water that boosts hydration. This helps your face look plump and refreshed – no dry, tight feeling like you might get from direct ice.
Enter the FACE DUNK Ice facial kit, your new skincare essential. It’s designed to help you achieve the perfect ice-to-water ratio, making each dunk more effective and comfortable. When combined with FACE DUNK Glow Drops, this unique formula activates the iced water, maximising absorption and transforming your skincare routine into a rejuvenating ritual.
Wake Up Your Skin (And Your Mood!)
Ice water facials are known for an energizing boost, not just for your skin but for your whole vibe. Ever notice how cold water makes you feel instantly more awake? That’s because cold temperatures improve circulation, helping oxygen flow to your skin’s surface and giving you that fresh, natural flush.
With each dunk, your skin tightens up (goodbye, morning puffiness!), and as you warm back up, you’re left with a natural glow. Plus, cold water helps reduce redness and calm inflammation, which can be a game-changer if you’re prone to acne or sensitive skin.
Why FACE DUNK is Your Go-To for Ice Facials
The FACE DUNK Bowl is custom designed makes your ice facial ritual easy, efficient, and way more effective than DIY salad bowl ice facials.
