Hi all,
This may be old news, but on another thread Miss J turned me onto neck tightening exercises,
which led me to a group of"face yoga" videos, demonstrated by Annelise Hagen, yoga teacher and author of...
The Yoga Face: Eliminate Wrinkles with the Ultimate Natural Facelift
Forget the book---the videos on youtube are free and some exercises are fun.
I like the neck tightening and lip fuller-izing (?) exercise where you stretch your neck upward, face toward the sky, pucker up and plant a big kiss. I laugh when I do this.
And as far as the science behind this stuff?
Just remember that the placebo effect is 30%. So if you believe it works, you lose nothing. And it makes sense that the face should be exercised and toned just like any other part of the body. I never thought of that before....
Anyway, here's one of the videos and next to it you can see a ton more. A whole series.
Face yoga: link to a series of free videos for tightening neck, helping sagging cheeks, fuller lips....Cheers,
