Hey pretty women!! I have been missing in action since a few days since there is a marriage at my place and really could not get the time to write for my favorite blog. Excuse me for that, first of all. Well, today we are going to talk about a beauty regimen that most of us tend to ignore – Face Massage. So today, my post is about Importance of Face Massage.

If I talk about the very basic steps of a good skin care regimen, I would take the following names, which is, cleansing, toning, moisturizing, exfoliation, packs and massage. Each step has it’s own function and skipping anyone of these, reflects on your skin.To be really honest, while I am quite particular about CTM and even scrubbing twice or thrice a week for my combination skin but massages and face packs, I tend to skip on a weekly basis. Let’s take a look at Importance of Face Massage and why we should not ignore it at all.
Face pack application once a week to firm your skin and a nice, stimulating facial massage once or twice a week is of vital importance to your face. Face is a reflection into your soul. Throughout the week, you go through ups and downs of emotions, tempers, work stress, environmental stress… all this builds up in you and it definitely shows on your face as dullness of complexion, tiredness, Puffy eyes, dark circles etc. So, once a week, at least make an effort to massage your face.
