INSTRUCTIONSFACE, NECK AND LOW-NECK SELF-MASSAGE: instructions
Self-massage
stimulates blood circulation of skin and subcutaneous tissues; as a result the
metabolism is improved, puffiness is reduced and skin elasticity is increased. While
performing the self-massage, all motions should be light, free and should follow
the basic face lines. The pleasure of breathing in the phytoaromacosmetic compositions
soothes the nervous system, improves your sleep and ensures your self-confidence
during the following day.
With light, horizontal motions, apply the desired
by you oil to low-neck, neck and face, starting from one shoulder towards the
other; proceed with vertical motions beginning from your chin, cheek bones, eye
contour and finish with the forehead. Go back to low-neck and with rhythmic,
not very strong, sliding motions, massage for 2-3 minutes. With your right
hand, stroke the left half of the neck towards the chin. Mind not to touch thyroid
gland . Perform the motion about 10 times.
Set your three fingers (forefinger,
middle finger and forth finger) in such a position, that the middle finger is
exactly on the wrinkles line. with light, circular motions from the outer towards
the inner side of the neck, massage, following the line of each wrinkle. Do this
5 times and finish with the stoking motion, shown already. Repeat the procedure
with the right side of the neck.
Stroke your cheeks with your three fingers
(forefinger, middle finger and forth finger), starting from the middle of your
chin towards the ears. Massage with light, circular motions, tap with finger tips
and stoke 5-6 times.
The nasal-mouth fold is a delicate and vulnerable
spot of the face so do not forget to massage it regularly. Start with stroking
motions from the lips' corners to the nose base, exactly along the wrinkle line.
Continue with the fourth finger applying circular motions, then tapping motions,
then again with the fourth finger massage applying light pressure. Do this 5-6
times.
With the middle finger, stroke your nose from the nostrils towards
the base; massage with light, circular motions, tap then stroke again. Do this
within 1-2 minutes.
Eye contour is the most delicate and sensitive area
of the face. Daily care is necessary so that its youth be secured. Here is an
easy applicable and effective self-massage, which will smooth eye contour, remove
traces of tiredness and reduce dark circles and pouches in this area. With
your fourth fingers, apply stroking motions starting from between the eyebrows,
moving along the eyebrows towards the temples, the end of the lower eyelid to
the inner corner of your eyes. With gentle circular motions, massage, following
the same line. In turns, massage with stroking then circular motions within 2-3
minutes.
Fix the outer angle of the eye with the point finger and middle
finger of one hand; with the fourth finger of the other hand, massage in a circle
for 2-3 minutes. Stroke and tap the lower eye lid.
For smooth skin of
the forehead, we recommend tapping and stroking motions, starting from the middle
of the forehead towards the temples and from the middle of the eyebrows towards
the hair. Perform the tapping and stroking motions in succession.
If there
are wrinkles on the forehead already, fix them with your point and middle fingers
of one hand and with the fourth finger of the other hand, massage with spiral
motions along the line of the wrinkle.
With the tips of your fingers,
tap all over the face; mind that the fingers touch your face in succession and
not all together. The tapping performed in this way stimulates the blood flow,
improves blood circulation and has a reflex effect on the nervous system. Finish
the massage with gentle soothing motions following the lines of the whole face
(look at photo 4).
