Tips For Massaging Your Face At Home For Glowing Skin
JAKARTA - Most people prefer to do facial massages or facials at beauty salons or spas. Besides not wanting to be complicated, most women choose this method because they don't understand the correct technique for massaging the face.
In fact, facial massage can be done at home, especially during skincare. The question is, how to massage the face properly like a facialist does?
Well, simply, take a jade roller, gua sha, or facial massage tool that you have. If you don't have one, use your fingers only.
Are you curious about what kind of technique you can do? Let's look at the correct and effective facial massage method based on aesthetician, Peloso Way as reported by Beautified, Friday, March 12.
Benefits of facial massageBefore doing facial massage, you should first know the benefits of facial massage itself. So, facial massage is very useful for maximizing the facial aura or glowing and making the face look youthful.
Cara Peloso also explained that facial massage can improve oxygen circulation to the skin so that collagen production increases and makes the face glow. If your face looks tired, facial massage can be done to make the skin more relaxed.
Furthermore, massage techniques such as pitching massage are also useful for tightening the skin, while lymphatic drainage massage techniques are useful for detoxifying so that blackheads and pimples can be reduced.
How to do facial massage at home
According to Cara Peloso, here are facial massage steps that you can do at home.
Perform facial massages at the cleansing routine, namely in the morning and at night. Clean your face with cleansing oil, then compress your face with a warm towel so that the skin is soft before massage. Use a serum oil or oil similar to jojoba and grapeseed for facial massage. It is recommended to use oil instead of moisturizer because the moisturizer absorbs quickly when the face is massaged. For massage tools, use whatever you like, be it a jade roller, gua sha, or your fingers. Start massaging the face with a stimulating massage technique, which is doing massage movements from the neck up to the forehead. After that, continue with the drainage massage using the pads of your fingers, by gently pumping the skin downward, like moving a coin on a table. Continue this movement up to the neck. Do the massage as long as you want for about 3 minutes and focus on areas of the face that need more attention.Remember, when you massage your face at home, you cannot match the position of your hands and the level of relaxation you get from professional treatment. However, if you regularly massage your face about 4-5 times a week, you can see significant results, namely a healthy, bright, youthful, and trouble-free glowing face.
The easy way and doesn't take long. With great benefits for skin health, there seems to be no reason for you not to do it. Moreover, this one activity really helps reduce facial swelling when you wake up in the morning. Practice immediately while doing your daily skincare routine, let's!
