The Cooling Effect
This may be less beneficial than actual preservation... but who cares? Applying cool or cold products to your face just plain feels good — especially in the summer! Another cooling benefit: If you have sensitive skin the cold temperature can give your skin care that extra soothing effect. And if you suffer from redness or puffy undereye bags, the application of cold products can help your skin settle and de-puff.
Which products feel good cold?
Anything water-based like an essence or toner, or gel-like products like moisturizers or serum, as well as sheet masks, jade rollers or anything for your under eyes.

Get Your Own #BeautyFridge
Ready for the upgrade? These mini fridges are surprisingly affordable, and you can get your own for under $50. Most skin care products cost more than that, so if you think about it... it's not that ridiculous of an idea, right?
I personally use the Cooluli Mini Fridge, $49.99, and love it! It's compact, lightweight — it even comes with shelves. The box even lists "skin care and beauty essentials" for suggested use, so, truly: There's no shame in being this extra.
