1. Facial Exercises
Those once-plump cheeks can be puffed up again with some simple toning exercises. Every morning and evening, stand in front of the mirror and smile. But not just any smile. A forced smile, very exaggerated and pronounced. Hold for 10 seconds, and repeat five times. Then, puff out your cheeks for a maximum of 10 seconds and repeat five times. Finish with a massage using both hands in a circular motion just above the cheekbones and progressively descend to the centre of the cheeks. Massage using a nourishing product with ingredients that make your skin supple for added benefits. The L’Oréal Paris Youth Code Skin Activating Ferment Pre-Essence enhances the renewing ability of the skin, boosts skin firmness, strengthens skin barriers, and improves skin quality. Those slack cheeks will soon be perky again.
2. Use Makeup The Right Way
With a few strokes of a foundation brush, illuminator, and blush, you can sculpt your face and redefine its features, creating plumper cheeks. Use foundation darker than your natural skin tone to create a shadow below the cheekbone and blend a highlighter on the bone, following the structure of the bones for the most natural result. If you're concerned about overdoing your contouring, you could miss the shading step and only add a highlighter above the bone. Efficient and fast, the hollows of the cheeks are more prominent and the cheekbones appear higher.
3. Try a Face Mask
This very nutritious homemade treatment of yoghurt, an excellent firming agent, and aloe vera, a powerful moisturiser, will help your cheeks to tone up gradually. Mix four tablespoons of natural yoghurt with two tablespoons of aloe vera gel to form a paste and apply it to the face. Leave for 20 minutes then rinse off with warm water. Your skin will be soft, hydrated, and plumper.
