Facial Contouring Tips for Defining Your Features

With time, our facial contours change and begin to lose definition. Hormonal fluctuations associated with the menopause play havoc with our skin. Elastin loses its flexibility, and collagen production begins to slow down. The result: our skin structure is weakened, and our muscles sag. Fatty tissue no longer has full support underneath, and the effect of gravity kicks in. The skin relaxes, and our cheekbones can look sunken. So we need to adopt a beauty regime that redefines these features. Following are some tips to maintain your facial contouring and highlight your features.
Tip
1

Exercise

Before applying your day cream, do some exercises to wake up and stimulate your facial muscles. Hold your chin between your thumb and forefingers and slide them up to your jaw bone, towards your ears. Repeat five times. On a muscular level, a facial workout will activate and tone the muscles, while at the tissue level, it will boost blood circulation and stimulate the production of hyaluronic acid. You'll get a wide-eyed look, with pronounced features and a redefined facial contour.

Use the Right Products

Defining facial contours requires a number of active ingredients. Go for products that contain adenosine to boost cell metabolism, proxylane and rhamnose to stimulate the production of hyaluronic acid, alongside antioxidant and anti-inflammatory ingredients to fight free-radicals and keep the skin's support fibers in shape. Opt for products rich in omega 6 and 9, which will nourish the skin.
You can also try using the new L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Crystal Micro-Essence which is an innovative skincare product designed to quickly absorbs into your skin and reveal your glowing, bright and crystal clear skin. This Micro Essence contains active Salicylic Acid which accelerates skin renewal & mildly exfoliates to refine pores & skin texture. It penetrates 10 layers deep into your skin and moisturizes and nourishes it deeply.

Try Injections

Mesotherapy involves injecting hyaluronic acid and vitamins into the surface of the skin. Performed by a dermatologist, this relatively painless procedure redefines the facial contour by plumping up the subcutaneous water cushion. Three sessions at monthly intervals are usually sufficient.

Seek Makeup

You can define your face without being a contouring whiz. Sculpt your face by brushing on a face powder that's a shade darker than your skin tone. Begin by dusting the cheekbones and work up towards your temples. Then concentrate on your facial contours and under your chin to accentuate your jawline.

Facial contouring in the right manner has a significant effect on your overall looks. These tips can help you redefine your facial features and look the best in the room with those high cheekbones and sharp jawline.
