1. Try facial massage
As we age, the lymphatic system that drains excess fluid slows down, leaving puffiness in its wake. Combined with slackening of the facial muscles, skin can quickly lose its shape, therefore facial massage is a brilliant way to reverse both issues, as well as boosting your skin’s natural glow. Try it at home after cleansing with a few drops of Garnier Organic Soothing Lavandin Smooth & Glow Facial Oil, £11.99, working the oil upwards and outwards to lift and tone.
2. Chill your eye cream
A take on the time-old beauty trick of using cold spoons to banish puffiness, why not keep your eye cream in the fridge? Not only does it feel deliciously cooling on tired eyes each morning, it’ll help make light work of unwanted bags too. Try it for yourself with Q+A Caffeine Eye Serum, £6.50, Holland & Barrett, it’s packed with antioxidants to brighten, soothe and protect the delicate under-eye skin.
3. Rediscover blusher
Fast-track your way to glowing skin and take years off with a quick slick of blusher. Liquid blusher like MUA Blushed Liquid Cream Blush in Watermelon, £2.50, is great for a less ‘done-up’ look. Pat onto the apples of your cheeks with your fingers until blended for a natural, healthy-looking flush.
