  • Start by massaging the area of ​​the lymph nodes. Many believe that the toxin travels from the face to the lymph nodes located under the ears, just behind the neck. Massage this area to help remove the toxins and prevent them from accumulating on your skin. Use your fingertips to massage the lymph nodes in circular motion for 1 minute.
    • Move your finger in a large circle, starting below the ears, and moving towards the throat, and up to the jawbone area.
    • Use constant force, but do not massage too hard. A facial massage is not the same as a tissue massage, as your facial skin will be more sensitive.

  • Massage the sides of the face. Using a similar circular motion, massage along the sides of the jawbone, past the corner of the mouth, next to the nostril, and above the cheekbones. Move the finger on the skin upwards, then outwards; not downward, because this can cause the skin to sag. Do this for 1 minute.
  • Massage the forehead. Use a circular motion to massage the sides of your forehead at the same time. Start at your temples and move towards the center of your forehead, then back to the sides of your forehead. Do this for 1 minute.

  • Massage the eye area. Place your finger at the arch of the eyebrow. Move your finger around the outer corner of the eye, gently point the finger toward the bottom of the eye and end at the corner of the inner eye. Continue moving your hands along the sides of your nose and your brow lines. Done in 1 minute.
    • Massage the eye area will help you cope with eye swelling, making the skin in this area brighter and more youthful.
    • Use extra oil if needed to prevent your fingers from dragging the delicate skin around the eye area.
  • Massage the area near the corners of your lips. A tightening and firming massage focuses on areas where the skin tends to sag. Using your fingertips, move in a circular motion over the wrinkles on either side of the mouth. Always remember to move your finger upwards to lift the skin instead of pulling the skin down. Do this within 1 minute.

  • Massage the cheek area. Use a circular, spiral motion on the cheekbones to tone and tighten the skin in this area. Use light force as you move your finger towards the inside of the cheekbones, then out the edges of the face and return to the starting position. Do this for 1 minute.
  • Massage the eye area. Place your finger at the arch of the eyebrow. Move your finger around the outer corner of the eye, gently toward the bottom of the eye and ending at the corner of the inner eye. Continue to move along the sides of the nose and the brow line. Done in 1 minute.
    • Eye area massage helps tighten sagging skin and deal with fine lines on the eyes.
    • Use extra oil if needed to prevent your fingers from dragging the delicate skin around the eye area.
  • Massage the forehead. If you want to blur the wrinkles on your forehead, you can massage the opposite direction of the wrinkles, instead of down the line. Place your hands on your forehead so they are aligned and next to the ends of the crease. Move your hands in a chi pattern by pushing one hand upwards and the other down so you can gently pull the skin on your forehead up and down. Continue doing this for the entire forehead area for 1 minute.
  • Massage the wrinkled skin between your brows. You can smooth the vertical wrinkles above your nose if you massage them horizontally. Place your hand horizontally with the crease between your eyebrows. Gently rub back and forth to stretch the skin away from its normal position of wrinkles.
  • Apply a layer of oil specifically for face skin. Facial oils allow your fingers to move easily across your face, avoiding skin dragging and stretching. Fragrant essential oils can also improve your mood and increase your ability to reduce stress during a massage. Apply a thin layer of oil to the skin according to the following instructions:
    • For dry skin: use coconut oil or argan oil. You can add 2-3 drops of lavender essential oil.
    • For normal skin: almond oil or jojoba. Consider adding 2-3 drops of lavender essential oil if you prefer.
    • For oily skin: use jojoba oil or a moisturizer that you love. Similarly, you can also add 2-3 drops of lavender essential oil if desired.
  • Massage into the area below the eyes and along the jaw. Tension often occurs in the jaw area and neck area, and massage will help you loosen the muscles. Use your fingertips to massage in circular motions for 1 minute.
    • Use a large circular motion, starting at the skin below the ears, moving towards the throat and up towards the jaw.
    • Press strongly at the muscle tension area.
  • Massage the sides of the face. Using a similar circular motion, massage along the sides of the jawbone, past the corner of the mouth, the edge of the nostril, and above the cheekbones. Close your eyes and focus on the comfortable hand movement on your face.
  • Massage your temples and forehead. The stress in this area often leads to headaches, so take a little extra time to massage them. Use a spiral motion to massage your temples at the same time. The next step is to move towards the center of the forehead, then back to the sides. Done within 1 minute.
  • Massage the eye area. Place your finger at the arch of the eyebrow. Move your finger around the outer corner of the eye, gently toward the bottom of the eye and ending at the corner of the inner eye. Continue to move along the sides of the nose and the brow line. Done in 1 minute.
    • Massage this area will make you feel better after a day of "eye strain" work.
    • Use extra oil if needed to prevent your fingers from dragging the delicate skin around the eye area.
  • Massage the nose area. If you have sinus problems, massaging your nose will help alleviate the problem. Lightly squeeze the bridge of the nose. Then, slide your finger down the nasal wing area. Repeat for 1 minute.
  • Finish by massaging each area of ​​your face one more time. Gently massage each part of your face to finish. When done, you should feel more relaxed and comfortable. advertisement
  • Advice

    • If you want an extra boost of skin care, lie down and place a few slices of cucumber or a cold tea bag over your eyes for 15 minutes. The tannins in tea will help firm and brighten the skin around the eyes.
