If you are looking for an exercise that will make you look prettier, check out the incredible facial rituals below. Like the body, the face also has to be exercised as a health habit, in order to improve circulation, eliminate dead skin and promote firmness. This is also known as facial gymnastics.

Our face has over 30 muscles. They are all used daily for different movements, such as opening and closing the mouth, and moving the eyes, nose and chin. You may think that using these muscles every day is enough to prevent wrinkles, but there are specific movements created to tone each part of the face.

Another benefit of doing facial exercise is that it can improve blood circulation, help eliminate toxins, make your skin look brighter, and delay the appearance of wrinkles, swelling, and expression lines, especially around the eyes.

Specialist in dermatology, Mariana Azcuénaga, was 30 years old when she discovered the potential benefits of facial exercises. Tired of using cosmetic products that were full of chemicals, and unhappy about the way her face was starting to show signs of aging, she decided to find a way to look younger by exercising her facial muscles.

Beauty Exercise 1. Vowels are a woman’s best friend to look younger. Every day, take some time to say each vowel aloud, deeply marking your expression. Hold the sound for 3 to 5 seconds, and open your mouth to say each vowel.

Beauty Exercise 2. Another easy exercise to do at any time is to fill your mouth with air and seal your lips. Open your mouth as much as you can, then close your lips tightly. Stretching and tightening muscles reduces flaccidity.

Beauty Exercise 3. With your index fingers, stretch the area of your eyebrows, exerting a slight pressure to prevent frowning or closing the eyes. Then, force your face to do the opposite, trying to frown and close your eyes. With this easy exercise routine, you can improve both the aspect of your forehead and the eye area.
