For mature skin, gentle massage techniques can enhance product absorption, stimulate circulation, and provide a subtle lifting effect. Here's how to incorporate massage into your routine:
Preparation: Ensure your hands are clean and warm. Apply a small amount of product to your fingertips.
Upward and Outward Motions: Use light pressure and move your hands in upward and outward motions. This helps to counteract the effects of gravity.
Specific Areas:
Forehead: Smooth from the center outwards towards your temples.
Cheeks: Use circular motions, moving upwards and outwards.
Jawline: Gently glide your fingers along the jawline from the chin towards the ears.
Neck: Use upward strokes from the base of your neck to your chin.
Eye Area: Apply eye cream with a gentle tapping motion using your ring finger. Avoid pulling or stretching the delicate skin.
Duration: Spend about 3-5 minutes massaging your products into your skin.
Consistency: Incorporate massage into your daily routine, both morning and evening, for optimal results.
Remember to be gentle and avoid applying too much pressure, as mature skin can be more delicate. Regular facial massage can help improve skin tone, reduce puffiness, and promote a more youthful appearance.
