As we age, our face naturally slackens,
but what if there was a way you could take 15 years off your face without
resorting to surgery or treatments such as Botox? One woman claims she has the
answer - facial fitness exercises.
Free Your Tongue
It is recommended that you hold this pose for 60 seconds. It is good if your eyes water; that flushes the toxins that may have accumulated there.
Temple Dancer Eyes
This exercise works on the ring muscles of the eyes to prevent sagging skin and crow's feet.
Smiling Fish Face
Smile while pursing your lips. This pose is modeled after the look celebrities often give the paparazzi
Lion Face, Part I
Inhale through your nose, make fists and squeeze all your facial muscles
Lion Face, Part II
Now exhale through your mouth, stick out your tongue, roll your eyes up and open your hands. Repeat three times.
Surprise Me!
Widen your eyes, as though surprised, but try not to wrinkle the brow. Focus on a point in front of you for about five to ten seconds. Then repeat, four times.
Satchmo
Named for Louis Armstrong, this poses mimics the cheeks of a trumpet player.
Buddha Face
Close your eyes, relax and imagine a point between the brows. Hold for one minute, or longer.
Facial exercises also take less work than exercises for your
body. What can you do in five minutes in the gym? But five minutes on your face
makes a real difference.
You should see a real difference in less than a month. 'If
you are doing the exercises every day for about 10 minutes, your face will
become stronger in four weeks.
