If you are seeking quick results, then a 20 minutes training performance is all you need for at least 3-5 times a week.
Here are some exercises for your face to consider…

3 Simple Face Tightening Exercises

Say Cheese: Smile as wide as you can (without wrinkling your nose or grimacing) and press your fingertips into the folds of the crease of your mouth, and gently hook as you pull them out.
Hold for at least ten seconds, then release.

Corrugator Lift: Create a claw with your index finger, place under your brows, and very gently apply pressure inwards and pull upwards.
You are going to try and blink 20 times.
You will feel the pressure in the muscles above and below your eye.
You can do this for each eye one at a time, and then both together.

Jawline Sweep: Using two fingers, hold your skin in the middle of your chin, using your other hand formed into a claw and tuck the side of your jaw between your clawed fingers and firmly sweep from the middle to the nape of your ear.
Do this for either side of your face, 5 times.

You can follow the journey of FaceGym trainers who can walk you through step by step on what movements to incorporate into your daily face workout, which is highly recommended not only by Vogue, but some of your favourite celebs.
Just like that, you will never have to give an excuse for skipping gym again.

Toning is best recommended for balancing your skin – this is a great skincare step to incorporate into any skin care regime.
Toning restores the pH balance in your skin and makes your skin ready for other skincare products as well as makeup.

The Do’s And Don’t of Skincare

Do eat a balanced diet (what you eat reflects in the pores).

Do get some rest (we don’t call her sleeping beauty for nothing).

Do exercise, those cheeks, jaws, and um and tums. Blood circulation with high intense workouts are good for your heart and skin!

Do drink water (goes without saying).

Do remove your make up before bed (even when you have been drinking).

Don’t stress (avoid those fine lines, a resting B face goes a long way, who knew).

Don’t use the wrong skin care products (know your skin type).

Don’t squeeze that spot (even if it grows like something out of ‘Men In Black’).

Don’t keep touching your face (keep the palette clean).
