Whether you’re a newbie when it comes to skincare or someone who’s been exploring it for a while— one thing’s for sure: we’ve encountered days when our face is puffier than usual.
Face puffiness, or face bloating is caused mainly by water retention. Usually, the water we take should flow and get distributed to our body with the excess flushed out. However, certain factors like our diet, genetics, and lifestyle could hinder that natural process. This might be something we encounter when we experience PMS, too.
The Fix: A Face Massage
Like the rest of our body, our face also requires a little more TLC that’s, quite literally, skin deep. When we know we have an ache in our body, we try to find a remedy to it. Usually, we’ll find the trusty ointment works fine but, we could always take that up a notch with a good massage.
Your face also works the same way, especially when it comes to depuffing your face. Treating yourself to a face massage gives it the extra boost it needs to help the excess water to flow along. It wakes your skin, promoting blood circulation, and adds an overall healthier glow. Studies even show that, with the right tools and way to do it, it could slow down the emergence of fine lines and wrinkles.
Where do we start?
A face massage is something you could easily add to your skincare routine. An additional minute or two in your regime, when done regularly, could minimize the occurrence of face puffiness.
This is where we draw the line between a body and face massage. For a quick fix to our body aches, we could usually wing it by applying pressure to where it hurts. Giving yourself a face massage is entirely different because it requires technique and the right touch. We’re not supposed to tug or stretch our skin when applying makeup and skincare, so it’s best to keep that in mind when giving yourself a face massage.
