Sensitive skin guidance

For dry skin:
If you have dry skin, we recommend our Deep Hydration serum. It features hyaluronic acid (HA) which is highly effective for dry skin because it is a humectant that attracts up to 1,000 times its weight in water, plumping and hydrating the skin surface.

    Actually makes my skin look awake

    Nice idea, works well
    I honestly bought this because it looked different from everything else. The applicator glides really nicely and the serum doesn’t get messy. Skin looks more glowy after using it for a week.

    Good but smaller than I expected
    The product itself is lovely and feels very luxe when frozen. I just thought the bottles would be a bit bigger. Still using it every morning though.

    Pretty good. I don’t think it’s a miracle but it definitely makes my skin look more alive in the mornings.

    Feels expensive
    Packaging is beautiful and the actual experience feels really premium. It gives that tight, refreshed look straight after use.

  • Amanda H. 7 March 2026

    Best part of my morning routine
    I’ve tried ice rollers and jade rollers and this is the first one that actually feels like it does something while also applying skincare. My skin looks smoother, calmer and more hydrated.

    Helped before an event
    Used this the morning of a wedding and my makeup went on beautifully after. My face looked less tired and a bit more sculpted.
  • Becs92 19 March 2026

    I like it, but you do need to remember to freeze it properly first. When I actually plan ahead it’s great.
  • Hannah P. 23 March 2026

    so refreshing
    This feels AMAZING in the morning. I’ve been using the hydration one and my skin looks less dull already.

    Pretty, practical, effective
    I mostly bought it because the concept was clever, but I stayed for the results. The cooling effect plus the serum is such a good combo, especially under the eyes and around the jawline.

    Makes me look less tired
    I have two little kids and never sleep enough, so anything that helps is a win. This genuinely makes my face look fresher in about five minutes.

    cold girl skincare but actually useful lol.
  • Natalie F. 20 April 2026

    Not bad at all
    I prefer the blue serum over the pink one, just personal preference. The hydration one feels nicer on my skin, but both are good.

    Perfect before makeup
    This has become part of my getting ready routine. It smooths everything out and gives my skin a cleaner, brighter look before foundation.

    I get the hype now
    At first I thought this might be one of those TikTok things that looks better than it is. But nope, it’s actually really good. My skin looks brighter and a little tighter right after use.

    Genuinely impressed
    I’ve spent a lot on skincare and tools over the years, and this is one of the more unique products I’ve tried. The immediate effect is what sold me, but after two weeks my skin also looks more radiant overall.

    makes me look less dead haha.

Your Questions Answered

What is Ice Theory?

Ice Theory is freezable skincare, a chilled serum facial you glide across your skin for a fresh, luminous looking finish.

Ice Theory turns traditional ice facials into a clean, repeatable skincare routine with freezable serums™ and an easy-glide applicator.

It is designed to be less messy than ice water and more comfortable than holding ice directly on skin.

Can I use it daily?

Yes. Keep sessions short and comfortable. Most people use it for 30 to 60 seconds.

Start with 30 seconds and increase if your skin loves it.

Should I use it morning or night?

Either works. Morning is great for an awake looking glow. Night is great before moisturiser for a dewy finish.

Do I wash my face before using it?

Yes. Use on clean skin, then follow with moisturiser or SPF depending on time of day.

Can I use it under makeup?

Yes. Wait 2 to 3 minutes after use, then apply makeup as normal.

Will it sting or feel painful?

It should feel cool and refreshing, not painful. If it feels too cold, let it warm for 10 to 20 seconds before starting and keep it moving.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Yes! Ice Theory is designed for use across all skin types when used as directed.

For dry skin:
If you have dry skin, we recommend our Deep Hydration serum. It features hyaluronic acid (HA) which is highly effective for dry skin because it is a humectant that attracts up to 1,000 times its weight in water, plumping and hydrating the skin surface.

For oily skin:
If you have oily skin, we recommend our Summer Glow serum. It's powered by niacinamide which helps regulate sebum production, reducing the appearance of enlarged pores, and reducing inflammation from breakouts.

Which serum should I choose?

Deep Hydration is best for a dewy looking finish and bounce glow.

Summer Glow is best for a brighter, more even looking finish.

If you want both, choose the Double Kit.

Can I switch between the two serums?

Yes. Many people use Deep Hydration on drier days and Summer Glow when they want a brighter, glassy look.

How do I fill the applicator?

Add serum into the applicator, seal it, then freeze upright. Do not overfill, leave a little space for even freezing.

Is it messy?

No! The serum stays in the cup until it melts on contact. No bowls, no dripping water, no runoff down your hands.

How long does it take to freeze?

Most freezers will set the serum cup in a few hours. For the cleanest glide, freeze overnight. For best results, keep it stored in the freezer between uses.

Can I keep it in the fridge instead?

No, it needs to be stored in the freezer.

The applicator is designed to fully freeze the serum, which will not happen in a fridge. If it is only stored in the fridge, you will also miss the cooling effect that helps refresh and de-puff the skin.

If needed, you can still apply the serum directly to your skin without freezing it, you just will not get the full frozen facial experience.

How do I clean the applicator?

You can re-use your frozen serum many times before needing to thoroughly clean it.

For a deeper clean, wash weekly with warm water and mild soap, rinse well, and dry fully before refreezing.
