To enhance the efficacy of your anti-ageing cream you can learn a few face massage techniques you can easily do at home. Ideally, you should massage your face, neck and décolletage every day after cleansing, or at least once a week to extend the effects of regular facials. The anti-aging face massage techniques we will cover can be completed in 5-10 minutes, but for longer-lasting face lifting effects you can spend 20-30 minutes.
Face massage can help smooth out fine lines, improve the complexion by bringing a fresh blood supply to the tissues, plump up the skin and improve muscle tone. Additionally, it can help reduce puffiness around the eyes, combat dark circles and stimulate the lymphatic circulation.
Eyes
It’s important to apply an eye serum to both the upper and lower lid area. Use gentle taps with your ring finger going from the inner part of the eye outwards. Then gently slide the tips of your ring fingers from the inner corner of the eye out, paying particular attention to the under eye area.
Don’t forget your brow bones: for a more lifting effect, gently pinch the eyebrows with your thumb and index finger starting from the centre of the forehead going towards the temples.

Forehead
Frown lines can appear at any age and they are very visible. Massaging your forehead every day with a good anti-ageing cream can make a difference. Using a small amount of cream, distribute it onto the palms of your hands. Interlock your fingers and place the palms of your hands on your forehead. Slide the hands outwards towards the temples, slowly releasing your fingers.

Cheeks
Dot some cream on your fingertips and use small, circular movements all around your cheekbones. For a lifting effect, use both index fingers, rest them on one cheek, then gently pull the skin between your fingers upwards. Repeat 10 times on both sides of the face.

Nose to Mouth Lines
Those lines running from the outer edges of the nose down to the mouth become more visible as we age. So soften these lines, after applying a small amount of cream, use your fingers in a rolling out motion. Place your index fingers flat onto the nose to the mouth lines on each side, then roll them with a gentle pressure outwards and upwards in the direction of your cheekbones for a smoothing and lifting effect.

Lines around the Lips
If you have small, vertical lines around your lips, dot some serum and smooth the area using small, circular movements with your fingertips.

Jawline
After applying your moisturiser, spend a minute on the jawline: using the thumbs and index fingers, gently pinch the skin along the jaw on both sides, starting from the chin out towards the ears. Repeat at least 10 times.

Neck and Décolletage
Don’t forget your neck and décolletage: apply your moisturiser to the neck and collarbone using long, sweeping movements with flat hands.
Start from the collarbone up the neck to the jawline and repeat at least 10 times. Then work on the area around the collarbone, starting from the centre going out towards the shoulders.
