Face Yoga - 6 Exercises To Do At Home

The downward-facing dog - great for the mind, body and soul - but how about some yoga for the face? We asked face yoga expert Danielle Collins to teach us her simple facial exercise regime, which helps lift, firm, tone and reduce wrinkles. Try this easy 20-minute routine, six times a week.

I have Bells Palsy on the right side of my face and these excercises are helping my face get back to normal

I can't wait to try these exercises. I have a feeling they might work. As someone who gets stressed out a lot, I think this will help a lot.

I think a good reason why it didn't work for the other ladies is because they were not relaxed when they did it. Any type of yoga is meant to relax the person.

Thanks Marie Claire. Wonderful article too!

Thank you Danielle, you are gorgeous, and this video is easy and most helpful.

[Katydock]

This is so great to do anytime!, thank you for showing me how.

[Constellation_Allison]

I hardly believe in anything..but I tried and it works. Thank You very much.

If nothing else, it relieves stress when I do these so I continue. People younger than me, and conventionally attractive, keep asking about my skin routine so maybe there's something to it. Thanks for this video!

A cheat sheet for my own benefit:

The V (squint up then look down in even reps)
Smile Smoother (‘o’ to smile, then smile scoop up)
Smooth the Brow (three forehead sweeps)
Flirty Eyes (mouth ‘o’ shape, look up and flutter eyelids, 30secs)
The Giraffe (stroke neck, stick lip out)
Acupressure points - (between eyebrows, circle both ways)
- (pinch jaw all the way up the jawline)
- (earlobe pinches)

All those commenting negatively on her looks must be perfect human specimens. Faultless and flawless. Those saying the exercises don't work probably did them for five minutes. Thank you for this video. I enjoyed it.

[lindalee]

I enjoy it. It makes my face feel energized. Other yoga works - why shouldn't this too..She is pretty and has a soothing voice

I have lost the feeling in the left side of my face after a tbi. Hoping these will encourage everything to start working again, obviously help the wrinkles and double chin too

[saldqi]

Thank you so much for this video!!I’ve been doing these exercises twice daily for the last couple of months and I’ve noticed a huge change😁

[jacobandersen]

This has to be the most like-able person/face I’ve ever seen.

[lindawinn]

👍Thank you for this no messing around video. The fastest, most informative and clear video I’ve seen., and I’ve been watching a lot lately. I can really feel the eye muscles working in those simple exercises. You’re great and I’ll be looking for more of your videos. 💕

If nothing else, I feel de-stressed after doing these. I must be holding stress/tension in my face, so this is helping in a way I didn't expect - as a de-stressor. Thank you!

I won't know about the wrinkle piece for years, but it would be a nice bonus if so.

[interiordesignschool]

I can't believe I'm so late to the party with face yoga. LOVE IT! :-)

[delo-sosg]

i have been doing it half a month two times a day and i feel the change

[catmonkey]

These were really great, thanks! You can actually feel the muscles in your face being worked. I could definitely see this working with routine use. Subscribed!

[stellaercolani]

She's beautiful and natural, not to mention she knows what she's talking about!

[lolycandoit]

I love the constant smile on your face. Thank you for this. I'm curious, your skin looks good, and no doubt you've been doing this for awhile,
