Face yoga can do wonders for sagging skin
It’s not just your body that benefits from yoga – your face will love it too!
If you’re starting to notice a bit of sagging on your neck, fine lines around your nose or some puffiness around your eyes, you don’t necessarily need to fork out more money for beauty products and treatments – you might just need some face yoga.
The wellness trend comes with a host of benefits including increased blood flow and circulation to your face and increased collagen in your skin which will give you a healthy complexion and a beautiful glow. Ready to try it? Here are 3 of our fave moves:
The Giraffe: Targets loose skin on the neck
- Looking straight out in front of you, place your finger tips at the bottom of the neck and lightly stroke the skin downwards as you tilt your head back.
- Bring the head back down until your chin meets your chest. Repeat twice more.
- Push the lower lip out as far as possible, then pull the corners of the mouth down. Place your fingertips back on your collarbone with the chin pointed towards the ceiling. Hold for four deep breaths.
The Puppet Face: Lift sagging lines around the nose (nasolabial folds)
- Smile with your teeth showing, then gently press you fingertips into the line between your nose and lips.
- Lift the skin up and press your fingertips into your face into the muscles for slight resistance.
- Hold for 20 seconds
The V: Fights droopy eyelids, crow’s feet and puffy eyebags.
- Press your middle fingers together in between your eyebrows, then with the index fingers, apply pressure to the outer corners of the eyebrows (forming a V with your fingers).
- Looking up, raise your lower eyelids upwards to make a strong squint, and then relax.
- Repeat six times then squeeze your eyes shut tightly for 10 seconds.
