4 amazing self-massage rituals that you can try at home

Make your skincare products more effective with the right application techniques! Here are our 4 targeted, self-massage rituals that are simple and effective and super easy to remember. 

Why do they really work? 

Because our face alone has 43 muscles, which contract and relax according to our emotions. Through touch, we work and relax the muscles, but also stimulate the entire blood and lymphatic network... In short, we activate everything: including the production of collagen and elastin, which is essential for plump skin. The only condition to see a real difference? As with sports, the body needs time and repetition to activate itself. It is therefore regularity that pays off, ideally every day or every other day.

Redefine the jawline 
  1. Clasp your hands together as if you were about to do a sun salutation and stroke the skin of the neck gently upwards towards the jawline. 
  2. Pincer time! Starting with the thumbs at the far edge of the jawline, work inwards towards the chin pinching gently with the index finger curved inwards, as if you wanted to prevent the thumbs from touching. 
  3. Now start from the chin and work back up towards the ears. Repeat the movement 10 times.

Sculpt your cheekbones 
  1. Start by locating the base of the cheekbone; just touch the hollow under the bone. 
  2. Then, using the two middle fingers, we make quick, upward strokes (neither too gentle nor too strong), starting from the birth of the cheekbone and moving outward. 
  3. Repeat at least five times per cheekbone.

Open up the eyes
  1. Using your first two fingers, start from the hollow of the under eye area and work outwards pressing gently. Repeat 3 times. 
  2. Next, pinch the eyebrows gently between the thumb and index finger, starting at the top of the brow and working towards the tail end. Repeat 3 times. 
  3. To smooth crows’ feet, gently stretch the affected area between the index and the middle finger and using the other hand, tap gently. Repeat on the other eye.

Smooth the line between your brows 
  1. Frown to identify the line in question. 
  2. Place your index fingers one above the other and move them downwards using zig-zag movements so that one index slides beneath the other and so on. 
  3. Continue for at least one minute.
