Going under the knife to keep your face looking young is drastic – and not for everyone. Good news: it’s not necessary, either. Incorporating ‘facial yoga’ into your daily routine (starting now) is something your face will thank you for later. So here’s to pulling ridic faces in the name of beauty!

The benefits

We all hold tension in our body, and the same goes for our face. It’s the first place that shows the tension – just think of all the times you’ve frowned in frustration today. Carrying out a sequence of facial exercises can help promote blood and oxygen circulation to the different parts of your face. Regular facial yoga also helps stimulate skin-cell regeneration, preventing wrinkles and leaving you with a glowy complexion.
