We are used to trust cosmetics, and there is nothing wrong with that. Every woman who wants to look good will look at the store shelves for those skin, figure and hair care products that she needs. But here the necessary and desired remedy was found, the instructions were read, we were convinced that this remedy was suitable specifically for our skin type, and we acquired the treasured cream / tonic / gel / cream. It seems to be simpler: apply to the skin and wait for a rejuvenating effect. And here it is: if we remain completely ignorant of the fact that there are massage lines of the face, we run the risk of getting a lifting effect, and the result is exactly the opposite.
In order for the skin to be smooth, supple, healthy, radiant, delicate and remain so for longer, you need to take regular care of it. This common truth is known to all women. But that skin care products should be applied strictly according to the rules that determine the massage lines of the face and neck, not everyone knows. Often women rub the cream as necessary, and then they are surprised that the procedure did not give positive results. Some simply apply the cream with light pats: this, of course, is not bad, but in this way the cream is distributed unevenly over the skin. You need to gently rub the skin, and then another effective and effective personal care product comes to the aid of creams - facial massage.
This process strengthens the muscles and tones the tissues, improves the supply of blood and, accordingly, the oxygen of the tissues, helps to keep the face skin young, smooth and supple. But you need to know how to properly massage your face so that as a result of vigorous friction and kneading you do not get the opposite effect to the expected one. Our face is covered with invisible "Langren lines." These facial massage lines are determined by the direction of the smallest skin tightening. Swipe your index fingers from the wings of the nose to the ears. And now in the opposite direction: from ears to nose. Felt the difference. In the second case, our cheeks seem to move to the middle of the face, stretch. If this procedure is carried out with the cheeks daily, then they will soon become flabby.
So, what exactly are facial massage lines? They pass in the lower part of the face from the dimple of the chin along the lower jaw to the earlobe; from the corners of the mouth to the bottom of the auricle; from the wings of the nose to the temples; from the nose to the tip of the nose and from the ridge of the nose to its sides. As for the eyes, they also have their own Langren lines. If you smear the upper eyelid with a cosmetic product, then you need to hold your finger from the inner edge of the eye to the outer. At the lower eyelid, the movement should go in the opposite direction - from the outer edge to the inner.
Massage lines of the face on the forehead require cosmetics to be applied from the “third eye” in the middle of the forehead, and then along the eyebrows to the temples, slightly upward, to the scalp. The neck should be massaged in front, from the lower to the upper part, and on the side, on the contrary, from the upper to the lower. The face and especially the neck should be massaged with soft and gentle movements: you can not stretch the skin, pinch it, pull it. Muscles need to be relaxed as much as possible, a calm face is best suited for the massage process. Massage, of course, you need already cleansed skin, covered with cream, so that the fingers glide over it.
Particular attention should be paid to places where facial wrinkles are outlined or have already been outlined. This is usually the area of the forehead, eyes, the area around the mouth, neck. To massage the forehead correctly, you need to fix the skin on the middle of the forehead with the tips of the three middle fingers and smooth it alternately, then with your left or right hand towards the temples (with each hand at least five times).
Smear the eyes with cream should also be correct: close the left eye, with the middle finger of the left hand, slightly squeeze the skin at the outer edge of the left eye. We engage further the ring finger of the right hand. With light “strokes” we apply the cream to the outer edge of the eye, and spread it along the lower eyelid from the outer edge to the inner, and then along the upper eyelid to the outer edge (about 5 times). Subsequently, we change hands and similarly massage the right eye. To smooth out wrinkles on your neck, carefully tilt your head back and slightly to the right. Take the thumb of your left hand, put your hand under the chin, and stroke it from top to bottom. Then throw your head back and already to the left, and perform the same stroking with your right hand.
