Wrinkle away with face yoga

What if we told you that there is a new beauty trend in town that can take years off your face without botox or surgery? Would you try it? Take a look at face yoga and how simple it is to firm up facial muscles!

Surely you are all too familiar with the warrior pose, the downward-facing dog or perhaps even the child pose. Set that aside and welcome a whole new set of poses that does not require a mat or a quiet space. You can do these poses on the go or when you have some extra time while waiting in line. However, you may get a few curious or concerned looks from people who are passing by.

The theory behind face yoga

Apparently you can tone up your facial muscles using specific movements. Surprisingly, according to a Daily Mail report, face yoga actually induces collagen production that helps give skin elasticity resulting in a more youthful appearance.

Annelise Hagen a yoga instructor in New York says that face yoga, “uses the same principles of exercise you would use for any other parts of your body.”

If you are looking at decreasing forehead wrinkles, adding some colour to your face and smoothing out the lines on your neck then please watch the videos below. Though we would recommend that you don’t do it out in the open as you will get strange stares from observers. You’ll understand why when you start watching the video tutorials.
