FACIAL CARE.
Your expressions and habits are part of your personality go by. If you frown a great deal and raise your eyebrows and wrinkle up your forehead, the folds in your skin will eventually lead to wrinkles and lines that get deeper as you get older and the underlying structure of your skin loses its elasticity and firmness. Laughing and smiling may eventually add wrinkles round the eyes and mouth. However, it is a good idea to exercise your face muscles, just as you do those of your body, not only to try and help firm up the supportive muscles of your face, but also to make yourself more conscious and aware of your facial mobility. The facial exercises appear funny in front of others, so do it in front of mirror while you are alone and repeat each of them 10 times.
Double chin-
1-Open your mouth wide, tilting your head backward. Now try to bring up your lower lip to close your mouth, feeling the pull round the jaw line and move your mouth in chewing position.
2-Sit straight and look up to the ceiling, stretching your neck, then purse your lips and stretch your face as you are kissing the ceiling, then turn your face at right shoulder, return head to front and then on your left shoulder. Return head to front position again and lower chin to normal position before repeating exercise.
3-Look straight ahead into the mirror and make a face as if you had eaten something horrid, clenching your teeth and stretching the corners of your mouth in a grimace. Hold the position while you count to five, before relaxing.
Eye exerciser.
1-Sit with you’re head and chin level, looking straight ahead. Without moving your head, roll your eyes in a clockwise direction six times, then six times in an anti-clockwise direction.
2-Focus your gaze on an object on the other side of the room and then alternately on one nearby. Now look up and down and from side to side, without moving your head.
Nose to mouth lines.
1-Puff out your cheeks. Relax. Then puff out your cheeks again. Repeat 10 times.
2-Purse your lips and puff out your cheeks. This time press three fingers either side of cheeks, still keeping the air inside. Count to 10 and then relax, repeat it several times.
3-Stand in front of the mirror and look straight ahead. Say woo-oo-oo, pursing up your lips and breathing out, then relax. Repeat it 10 times.
