Elena (@inked.russian) of New York City, 31, filmed herself trying the product in a video on TikTok.

She held up a bowl of individually-wrapped skincare in various colors.

"I've been using these little guys already for a couple weeks and look at my skin," she said.

She removed the TikTok face filter to show her actual skin texture.

"I have no nothing and it's glowing," she said of her complexion.

She added that each piece is so big, she can get at least two uses out of a packet.

"I can use them longer to save some money," she said. "My skin is literally glowing."

She also said that at 31 years old, she is "picky" with the skincare she chooses to use.

"I'm trying to survive without the Botox or anything else," she said.

"Nothing against it, but I'm broke and I cannot afford it. That's why I'm investing in my skincare so I can age gracefully and naturally."

The product is called the Supreme Energy Ice Cubes by Ameōn, $55.

The video drew in many anti-aging fans who shared their thoughts in the comment section.

"What benefits do these have on skin?" one asked. "Why have I never seen these?"

"It’s a relatively new product, the owner is cancer survivor so she creates this skincare because most of skincare has a lot of unnecessary s**t in it," Elena replied.

"And this is a clean product and it helps to smooth skin texture and fine lines, deeply hydrates, and plumps the skin. I absolutely love this frozen essence 100 out of 10."
