Face Yoga & Face Tools

To put it simply, face yoga is a series of facial exercises, which helps and tone your face muscles. It consists of massaging the skin manually to encourage lymphatic circulation and help remove waste and toxins from the body- for the face, it improves circulation by delivering oxygen around the skin, draining toxins, assisting in the reduction of inflammation and puffiness, and promoting an overall glow”.

It's like a gym workout for the face. Your facial muscles and nerve connections will relax, thereby delaying the onset of wrinkles. Let's look at this basic beginnerfriendly face yoga flow below.

Pro Tip: Keep your posture straight and keep breathing!

1. Warm Up

This is for overall blood flow and a simple pose! Drop your jaw as if you're yawning, feeling that sensation you're creating in the cheek area. Without moving your forehead, move your gaze from eye-level, all the way past your forehead to the ceiling without moving your forehead muscles. Hold for 10 seconds, repeat two times for a total of 30 seconds.

2. Don't ditch the neck
