Face Exercises to a Slimmer Younger Face

Sooner or later every woman starts realizing that her skin is no longer as young and elastic as before, or she even starts getting chubby fat cheeks and double chin. Nowadays it is possible to get a slimmer face and a tight skin by choosing from the variety of the innovative technologies like Botox injection, medical surgery and many-many more. But these procedures are not always safe and, moreover, are expensive. Anti-aging creams and masks can delay the face changes, and in general are a much cheaper and safer solution than surgeries. But even they can't stop the aging face changes completely. There is, however, a natural and safe way to a slimmer face - face exercises. All you have to do is a short simple exercise complex which will restore the muscle tone, improve the blood circulation and smooth the wrinkles out. Moreover, during training lower layers of skin start producing collagen which is so important for the slimmer face goal as it is responsible for savi

Face is Not the Index of the Mind

Add caption Face is the index of the mind' is an old proverb that has undergone a sea of change and in fact a metamorphosis in the modern world. It is true that your face reflects your mood. When you are happy or joyful, your face radiates it and your activities are induced by your happy mood, through your smiles or laughs and through your intention to share and celebrate your happy mood with others; when you are sad or feel sorry, your mood is reflected by your dullness and rigidity, through the outburst of tears that you shed, when you get isolated from the company of others and when you unusually resort to doping. Though by nature, your face is endowed with or blessed with the ability of reflecting your feelings, it varies according to your age.

Excessive face cleansing can strip your skin of its natural oil, causing skin irritation because of the dryness and over stimulation of your sebaceous glands. If you continue with this kind of skin care ritual, you will successfully cause a skin breakout in no time. Face Care is important but it does not require you to take hours at a time to do it.
