While lotions and potions might help, there’s more to the story! It's a face massage! In recent times, face massage for glowing skin has been pretty popular due to its effectiveness and soothing nature. But that’s not it! The advantage of face massage goes beyond a healthy, shiny, youthful visage. Stick to this blog to explore how to improve your face shape through face massage, its benefits, and more importantly, how to massage your face to achieve that coveted glowing complexion and a sharp jawline.
Top 3 Face Massage Benefits
There’s no denying that facial massage feels relaxing and calming, and more so, after a long, stressful day or week. So including face massage in your nighttime routine or weekly skincare routine not only helps you to rejuvenate but also:
Improves Circulation
Imagine giving your face a rejuvenating workout every day. That's precisely what face massage does—it boosts blood circulation and delivers essential nutrients and oxygen to your skin cells. This increased circulation generates new cells and presents you with a brighter, youthful complexion.
Relaxes the Tensed Muscles
Similar to our body, our face is also made of various muscles that need pampering a.k.a massage once in a while to remain in their best health. You should also consider the modern stressful life that takes a toll on our skin too. All these lead to dull skin and premature age signs such as fine lines and wrinkles. Face massage proves to be highly therapeutic to melt away tension and restore skin health.
Makes Skin Clearer And Glowy
Face massage for glowing skin has been popular since time immemorial. Regular face massage stimulates lymphatic drainage, flushing out toxins and reducing puffiness. This detoxifying effect, combined with increased circulation, results in clearer, more radiant skin that glows from within.
How to Massage Your Face?
As we’re now aware of the face massage benefits, it’s time to follow a scheduled face massage for men and women alike. Irrespective of age and gender, the face and jawline massage techniques remain almost the same. So no matter who you are, if you want to enjoy the most advantages of face massage, skin prep has no alternative. It’s a facial massage essential to help your skin soak in all the benefits of face massage. So before we take a quick look at the ingredients to perform the face massage, let’s find out the steps one must follow before the massage:
Step 1: Start your skin preparation for the face massage session by cleansing your face using a foaming face wash of Earthraga. Our Ubtan + Turmeric Foaming Face Wash, Deep Cleansing Salicylic Acid + Coffee Foaming Face Wash, Activated Charcoal Face Wash, and Aloe Vera Neem Tea Tree Face Wash are some of the best choices to remove the skin impurities and prepare the skin for further steps.
Now it’s time to massage your face with:
Ice-Cubes
Start your face massage with a rejuvenating ice-cube massage session. Simply wrap an ice cube in a thin, soft cloth and glide it gently across your face in circular motions. It tightens pores, reduces inflammation, minimizes puffiness, improves blood circulation, and leaves your skin refreshed.
Creams
If you’re unsure of massaging ice on your face, then you can do the same using Earthraga night and day creams depending on the time of the massage and your skincare goals. For people struggling with age signs, both of our day creams - Youth Glow Kumkumadi Day Cream SPF 30 and Age Defying and Rejuvenating Bakuchiol Day Cream are made to fight off wrinkles and fine lines. Bonus? They also work as sun protection!
At night, your skin needs something to revive from the stress it has faced throughout the day. As it’s the time when your skin goes into repair mode, follow your nighttime facial massage routine using Earthraga’s Bakuchiol Night Cream or anti-aging & Skin Brightening HA+Retinol Night Cream. Gently massage it into your skin using upward and outward motions, allowing the formula to penetrate deeply while you sleep. The power of beauty sleep, while your face is slathered in our cream, can turn your dull, lackluster skin into a shiny, glowy one!
Oils
If you’re in the mood for an at-home spa-like experience, including facial oils in your massage routine can do the trick for you. Choose a lightweight face oil, warm a few drops between your palms, and massage the oil into your skin using gentle, upward, kneading motions, focusing on areas where tension tends to accumulate, such as the jawline and temples.
Scrubs
Regular exfoliation is key to maintaining a healthy complexion. Face scrubs help you get rid of dead skin cells and let you flaunt fresh, radiant skin underneath. Earthraga has a great range of face scrubs such as Vitamin C Face Scrub, HA + Retinol Face Scrub, and Deep Cleansing with Gentle Care Salicylic Acid + Coffee Face Scrub to unclog pores, control acne and blemishes, and brighten skin. So dampen your face and gently scrub the skin with the face scrub. Massage it into your skin using circular motions to target the congested skin.
Earthraga Tip: Always end your facial massage with a moisturizing serum chosen from the list of serums available on Earthraga. Infuse the goodness of the potent ingredients present in our face serum and let it sit on your skin for the day.
Incorporating face massage into your daily skincare routine is a simple yet powerful way to enhance your face shape and achieve a radiant, glowing complexion. So pick the best Earthraga natural skincare products for glowing skin from our collection and follow an effective face massage technique to suit every skin concern. So why wait? Treat yourself to a rejuvenating face massage today and unlock the secrets to poreless, relaxed, fresh skin.
FAQs on Face Massage
Q. How often should I massage my face?
For at-home facial massage sessions, without professionals’ involvement, at least once a day is ideal.
Q. Can facial massage help reduce the appearance of wrinkles?
Yes, regular facial massage can stimulate collagen production, which in turn can minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time. The products you use for the face massage session also play a role in it. If you include Earthraga Bakuchiol Face Serum in your skincare routine, you’ll be able to visibly reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Q. Can facial massage help with acne-prone skin?
Yes. As facial massage helps improve blood circulation and lymphatic drainage, over time, it can reduce inflammation and soothe acne-prone skin. The more gentle, non-comedogenic, anti-acne products from Earthraga you include in your facial massage routine, the less you face aggravating skin concerns like breakouts.
