Transform your face permanently AND naturally with these glow up secrets

0:00 most of us believe that beauty is just genetics that the way your face looks right now as you're watching this video is merely a manifestation of your genes and there's nothing that you can do about it unless you go get a plastic surgery or inject your face with toxins AKA botex and fillers there's no other way to change your face well I'm here to tell you as someone who has changed her face within a span of a year naturally without any medical procedures that's actually not true and it's not just about gen gentics do you recognize this guy Charles Darwin Darwin recognized during his era that faces were changing and it wasn't related to genetics and these changes were causing people to look less and less attractive he noticed that Jaws during his lifetime were becoming more recessed and it wasn't

0:46 just him who noticed this other people other scientists in his era noticed this phenomenon but it gets much more interesting this jaw shortening phenomenon was only happening to One race and one class of people it was only happening to white people from upper class turns out this phenomenon was due to the fact that they were eating soft cooked food which means their jaws weren't working as hard and therefore they didn't develop properly fast forward to the day this issue is no longer affecting One race and one class of people it's actually affecting almost everyone from every race every class and every ethnicity because now the vast majority of people eat soft cooked food in the past wisdom teeth removal wasn't even heard of it wasn't a thing nobody

1:32 did it because their jaws were fully developed they had aligned teeth and they had enough space to accommodate wisdom teeth now 80 to 90% of adults remove their wisdom teeth at one point of their life which is insane from0 to 80 90% now all of that to say beauty isn't just genetics our lifestyle has a huge impact on how we look and when I say lifestyle that isn't just about eating healthy sleeping well working out three times a week yes those things are crucial you should be doing them but there is so much more that we don't hear about the Modern Life and Technology have introduced so many new lifestyle changes that we don't really pay attention to but they're affecting our Beauty they're affecting our posture and how we look in general but the good news

3:52 Elegance [Music] feed all right first things first let's talk about sleep position we all know that we need 7 to n hours of sleep every night this is known this is not news to anyone but eight hours a day is a long time if you're spending eight hours of your day sleeping in the wrong sleep position impacting your spine alignment your breathing deforming your face squishing the side of your face on the pillow or on the pillow I used to do that if you sleep on your stomach then no wonder why you wake up with a puffy face no wonder why why you have facial asymmetry posture problems and sleep wrinkles and by the way wrinkles isn't just something that's caused by aging

4:37 yes aging can contribute to it it can lead to it but there's a lot of people in their 20s who have wrinkles and there's a lot of Elder people who don't look that old at all wrinkles are created by tensed muscles think about the most angry person in your life someone who's constantly angry I guarantee you they have 11 between their eyes and this repetition of certain mimicking certain facial expressions will eventually cause wrinkles and they will become more and more permanent and the exact same thing happens with sleep wrinkles if you sleep in a way that is causing your face to be compressed that is causing your face to have those creases and lines that will eventually lead to sleep wrinkles maybe you

5:23 wouldn't notice it in a day or two but after a while after years there would be permanent lines on your face because of the way that you sleep and if you're someone who has existing wrinkles or if you're someone who mimics a lot does a lot of facial expressions and then you sleep in a way that increases those wrinkles they will become more prominent and deeper also sleep position is one of the reasons why most of us have facial asymmetry which is normal because we're humans at the end of the day when we want to sleep we want to feel comfortable and we want to make the most of it so it's completely normal but if you're someone who likes to sleep on one side the entire night you wouldn't even switch positions deforming your face compressing it on the pillow then you

6:09 might have more prominent facial asymmetry I recently was introduced to a brand called sleep and glow they're actually sponsoring this portion of the video and they created a product that is quite revolutionary because it addresses this problem to a te this is the Omnia pillow it's not your regular pillow this pillow was clinically proven to prevent and fight sleep wrinkles around 87% of subjects have seen a difference in their sleep wrinkles it was designed by cosmetologists and Orthopedics to ensure correct body position AKA correct spine alignment during sleep and as you can see the pillow has cradles on the side for S sleeping which ensures that your neck and your head are being supported during sleep but your face is not

6:55 getting compressed on the pillow creating those sleep wrinkles and it also has a head cradle at the center to help with sleeping on the back which is the optimal sleeping position and this cradle will help for long sleeping on the back so you can sleep in that position for as long as possible and have the best results it also comes with a silk pillowcase which is in itself very beneficial even if you have just a regular pillow you should get a silk pillowcase because it will help improve the health of your skin your hair and your lashes now my sleep issue was I used used to mostly sleep on my stomach which is the worst sleep position ever if you sleep on your stomach please listen carefully when you sleep on your stomach especially for a long period of your time your neck and shoulders are

7:42 getting strained breathing gets obstructed the blood circulation especially to your brain worsens and your facial tissues are not getting enough oxygen which creates dark circles around the eyes and the overall experience might cause you headaches sluggishness feeling in the morning and I personally have experienced those things I used to have really bad dark circles not knowing why eye creams didn't help but now I understand that the reason to that was I sleep on my stomach and it's the worst thing ever so what I started doing with the Omni AO is I started to train myself to sleep on my back and stop sleeping on my stomach you can sleep on your stomach with the pillow but it's not the most comfortable

8:28 position and and it instantly reminds me to switch to my back or to my sides the other issue that I used to have is I used to really like low soft pillows for some reason I never liked High pillows and although that was comfortable for me but when you sleep on a almost a flat pillow that increases puffiness in the morning because the fluids the liquids in your body are traveling to your face creating that puffiness in the morning that we all hate so when I got the Omnia pillow it's not super high that it's uncomfortable and it's not super low like my old one it's in the perfect he and it also comes with an additional foam layer that you can attach if you want it higher and you can adjust the height so this is something that I highly recommend investing in in my

9:13 opinion Sleep Quality sleep position is so crucial like I said we're spending eight hours of our day plus sleeping so we need to optimize this experience and make it as high quality as possible so yes it is an investment but it will last you 5 years years and if you use my discount code you would get 10% off and you would get $15 off of pillows and blankets and I will leave the link for you in the description below now if you have a regular pillow and you're just working with that that's fine but we need to optimize this experience as much as possible so like I said get a silk pillow case invest in a good quality mattress that works for your body shape make sure that your current pillow is at a height that is comfortable for you investing in sleep is actually much more

9:59 important than investing in a 10-step skincare routine because guess what what your skin needs isn't just some topical creams that are very superficial what your skin truly needs is good blood flow and good oxygen circulation so you got to make sure that you get the best of those while you sleep and this leads us to another important crucial non-negotiable contributor to your beauty your posture your posture isn't just about looking tall confident and graceful it actually impacts your facial composition it impacts how your face looks this is how my face used to look over a year ago and you can see my facial composition has changed and it changed without any medical procedures without any fillers or Botox it changed

10:47 naturally so please if you're going to take away anything from this video please let it be this part about posture so what happened was I came across a page on Instagram that teaches Beauty fascia massages I'm going to leave the handle right here and fascia basically is a connective tissue that surrounds muscles and Bones so fascia massages essentially mean that you can reorganize how your muscles and your bones sit on your face and when I first came across this concept I started to do her free tutorials free videos and just try them out and I started to actually tell a difference so I was like okay I want to go all in take the next step and I invested in her private program this is not sponsored by the way this is just this is really my experience and what I

11:33 actually did so I started her program in December of 20123 photos that you see here are around that time and there's plenty of face massages options out there you can go on YouTube there's plenty of free face massages gasa face yoga there's a lot of different options and I truly believe that what really transformed my face isn't just the face massage every time we start a session we always start with working on our shoulders our chest and our neck before starting the program my posture was terrible my shoulders were like this all the time and I couldn't even feel it I couldn't even notice it because that was my Norm my shoulders were very tense and they were high making my neck appear even shorter actually my neck is longer

12:19 now than a year ago and my clavical bones because my shoulders were high my clavical bones were like this instead of just sitting straight and when we think of this we just think of it aesthetically yes you need to have a good posture yes it makes you look confident and graceful and elegant but actually this posture this tension that I used to have was causing my face to look the way that it looked before because when your neck is locked when your shoulders are tensed no lymphatic drainage is happening the waste the garbage that your body produces that your brain produces because your brain takes a lot of energy and produces that waste but it's not getting drained because your neck and your shoulders are very tensed and guess what happens you end up with a puffy face with puffy eyes

13:06 and all of that liquid all of that lymph is stagnant in your face for years and you don't even realize it if you're watching me right now and you have hooded eyes or you have eye wrinkles or eye bags or Els or anything in the eye area and yet your shoulders are all the way here then there is no wonder because there is a connection between your shoulders and how your shoulders it and your head and your eyes and all of that liquid that is not being drained properly is coming down to low pressure areas of your face AKA your eye area or if you're someone who has a double chin or if your jaw is n snatched and you have Jaws or any problem in your lower face area and you spend hours of your day looking down at your phone or if you

13:53 work and your work requires you to look down looking down in general means that you are shortening the back of your neck and guess where that tissue will go the gravity will pull that tissue down creating double chin and I actually had this problem myself even though my weight never really changed throughout my life I was always the same weight but I used to have some volume in this area and I noticed it and I could like see double chin from certain angles and I'm like that's weird I don't think that's fat but some people would say that your body stores fat in different areas and I guess that's where my body stored fat but that's actually not true this was basically a sagging of the tissue because I would be on my phone for hours

14:39 and this tissue was basically coming down and this is what I mean by lifestyle affecting your beauty the way that technology has brought those changes to our lives that we're not addressing is really impacting how we look how our posture is and our overall Beauty so when I worked on the tension in my my shoulders I worked on my posture I did posture exercises neck exercises along obviously with face massages my face started to change and you can see right now that my face looks way more Slimmer than it used to before my jawline looks better the cheeks are sitting higher and my eyes are more open I never really had hooded eyes but my eyes look so much better now they look more open they look more youthful and

15:25 that's not genetics that's simply because my posture looks better and all of those elements are taken care of here are a couple of things that you can do to start improving your posture your neck and your shoulders I highly highly highly recommend that you dedicate 5 to 10 minutes a day just 5 to 10 minutes yes it might be boring maybe you don't really understand the importance maybe you wouldn't see the difference tomorrow but that's crucial this is much more important than spending 20 minutes on a skincare routine that is super superficial and won't give you the kind of results that you're looking for so dedicate 5 to 10 minutes a day I'm going to link below some trapezius and neck release videos if you do them correctly you should actually feel an immediate

16:11 difference every time I do a trapezius release exercise I can tell the difference and see the difference immediately because you would start with one side and when you're done the shoulder will be dropped because it's relaxed now it's going down and then you see you're like this for a while and then you do the other one and they're both down you should feel the relief you should feel like a weight has been lifted from your shoulders and the same goes for your neck the second thing that you can do is you can get a posture corrector you can get it from Amazon I'm going to link one for you below and you can start to wear it during the day as you work you can wear it beneath your clothes so it wouldn't show and just go about your day the posture corrector will remind you to have your shoulders down to have them back to have the

16:57 correct posture and hopefully over time as you continue to wear it it will train your body to have this as your normal default posture the third thing that you can do is you can add upper back exercises at the gym because when your upper back muscles are strong they will carry your upper body they will carry the weight instead of your shoulders carrying it so here are a couple of exercises that I do at the gym you can try them out see how you feel and try to strengthen those muscles and since we're talking about posture we cannot forget to talk about mouth posture and your M to keep things very simple as a rule of thumb your tongue should be on your upper pallet at all times it should be there right now if it's not if that's

17:43 not the case then you need to bring your awareness and train yourself to have it sticking to the roof of your mouth at all times which leads me to say if you have a nasal blockage of some kind if you have allergies or if you have any issue that causes you to breathe from your mouth instead of your nose then this is something that you need to bring instant awareness to if you have allergies that are unaddressed if you have any dental problems you should really fix this problem because breathing from your mouth and having your tongue not on the upper palette like I said will make changes to your face it will affect how your jaw appears it will create double chin and it will impact the overall facial structure so this is very very important and do you

18:29 know what else has a great influence on your facial structure your masser the masser is this muscle right here next to your ear it's right here and this muscle is tense for everyone and it will never be 100% relaxed because we use it all the time I'm using it right now to talk we talk we chew we eat we tense this muscle when we're stressed we grind our teeth at night and all of those things things will cause tension in this muscle and the tension of this muscle also has all sorts of implications from my experience the reason why my face looks so much Slimmer right now the reason why my cheeks are lifted is because I worked on my masser and I relaxed it as much as

19:16 possible I do M release every day or every other day if not every day but never longer than that because like I said we use our masor muscle all the time so we need to relax it regularly I linked a master release exercise below it should take you 1 to two minutes every day so it's really not that of a hassle but it has such a huge impact on your face and finally let's talk about lymphatic drainage which is a topic that has been trending for a while it's been very popular which is actually a good thing because lymphatic drainage is very beneficial and you can start seeing results very soon and the reason why I put this at the very end is because I see a lot of lymphatic drainage videos lymphatic massages gacha routines and

20:02 all sorts of facial exercises or routines but they typically don't address the three things that I just mentioned they don't address your shoulders your posture your neck your M and all of those very important things so if you're doing those routines you're doing those videos what they're focusing on is basically draining the fluids from your face which will give you a depuffed look for a while but it's very temporary because if your neck is not unlocked if your shoulders are tense then that fluid is not getting drained properly and it will swim back to your face creating even more puffiness so if you want real permanent surgery like results you need to do the three things that I mentioned you need to pay attention to your

20:48 posture you need to relax your masser and you need to do that regularly because we use our bodies the same way that we need to work out multiple times a week why wouldn't we just just work out one time because we use our body and we need to constantly tend to it release any tension and just make sure that we make this a routine because otherwise we're not going to get any results and if you're not familiar with what lymphatic drainage even is here is a simplified definition basically the lymphatic system is a network of vessels underneath the skin and it acts like a garbage disposal service our cells are working all the time our brain is working and it's creating waste so all of that waste all of that liquid is being collected by your lymphatic system

21:34 and it's getting drained and then released from the body so if you have lymphatic stagnation if your lymph nodes are blocked then your body is not getting rid of that waste properly which creates puffy face puffy eyes under eye bags and all sorts of things and like I said there is a ton of lymphatic drainage routines washer routines face massages out there that you can explore and try out I'm going to link below a couple of free face massage routines by Anastasia who is my teacher and the one who got me those results and she has a 10minute full face massage video I recommend doing this every day along with the trapezius neck and masser relaxation exercises all of those should

22:19 take you about 15 minutes a day you can do it in the morning which is the best time that's when I do my own face massages and do it for a couple of days a couple of weeks and see how you feel see if you're starting to feel the difference and come back and let me know I guarantee you if you do everything that I said correctly and you stay diligent to it you will start seeing difference in your face and if you're wondering will this work on me if I'm not a certain age if I already have wrinkles or you know Beauty problems yes I have seen all kinds of different faces from different ages and the beauty of these techniques is they work on everyone if you're young and you want to prevent wrinkles you want to maintain your current shape and improve it obviously then it will work for you or

23:05 if you are older and you want a more youthful look you will get that as well I hope this video was eye openening for you I hope it gave you a sense of empowerment that you can actually transform your face with your own hands with your own fingertips you don't need to inject toxins into your skin to look better or to look more beautiful you can actually do it naturally by taking care of your body and actually showing love to it make sure to like this video subscribe to the channel and let me know about your experiences in the comments if you're currently doing a different Beauty routine or if you've tried something similar I would love to hear all about it and I would like to hear what would you like to see next and until then stay elegant
