Miss getting a facials? While it may not be quite the same level of care you would receive at your favorite spa, you can treat yourself to a free facelift performed by you in front of your bathroom mirror. Say hello to face yoga— smoother of worry lines, tightener of skin. Follow this routine, shared by the skincare experts at Origins, and erase years, or at least the past few weeks, from your face.

Step 1

Sanitize your hands.

 

Step 2 

Apply two pumps of an oil-based serum to your fingertips. (Origins suggests its Plantscription Anti-Aging Power Serum, which promises maximum rejuvenation.)

Step 3

Tent your hands over your nose while breathing deeply to inhale the essential oil aromas. Spread serum all over your face.

 

Step 4

Bend your index and middle fingers, then place your chin between those knuckles. Glide your fingers upward along your jawline three times; take a deep breath.

 

Step 5

Place your thumbs beneath your cheekbones with palms facing forward. Guide your thumbs up toward your temples three times; take a deep breath.

 

Step 6

Position your fingertips in the center of your brow. Applying firm pressure, sweep up and out toward your hairline and temples three times; take a deep breath.

 

Step 7

If needed, pump more serum onto your hands. Slide your fingers upward on each side of your neck three times.

 

Step 8

With your fingertips beneath your jawline, gently push your chin upward; take a deep breath.

Step 9

Bask in the glow of your DIY face renewal!
