Daily Face Lift

Here is a tip for younger looking skin, a daily face lift.  Whenever you apply product to your face follow these basic steps:

1.  Place a small amount of product (pea size is great in general, thicker products may require a little less) on your  middle and ring fingers of one hand.  These are weakest of the fingers and will put less stress on the skin.

2.  Distribute the product between both sets of middle and ring fingers.  This helps to extend your product and you will find that you use a lot less of the product.

3.  Apply to your face in an upward circular motion.  The circular motion encourages blood flow to the area while the upward motion helps to keep the skin from sagging. (start with the green arrow)

I learn this technique as a teenager and have been following this simple routine ever since.  I always get compliments on my skin and even after grad school, marriage, work and 2 kids I still maintain a youthful appearance.

The technique does not reverse the aging process but will definitely slow it down!
