-Let’s Get Started -
1) Regularly Change Your Pillow.
Back sleepers don't need to worry as much here, but front and side sleepers do. After all, their face is making contact with their pillow for around 8 hours a day. Something that means if their pillow is dirty, it's not going to be very good for the look or health of their skin.
With that in mind changing your pillowcase every night before bed can be the smartest thing you can do or your facial beauty. Some folks even choose to get rid of standard pillowcases together and go for ones especially made to be kinder to the face. Happily investing in a few extra pillowcases isn't very expensive, nor does it take long to change this part of your bedding each night.
2) Eat More Sushi.
OK, so sushi isn't always the cheapest food, but you can make it yourself for a lot less money. Why sushi? It’s packed full of fatty fish such as salmon, which can be great for your face! The reason for this is because it is full of omega fatty acids, which can help to prevent inflammation. Not to mention, all the zinc and vitamin E it holds, which can also do wonders for your face.
3) Give Your Face a Steam Massage In The Shower.
Steam massages are the latest thing in facial care. However, you don't need to go to a fancy spa to get one. You can give yourself a facial massage each morning in the shower with similar results.
Start by tapping your cheeks and forehead rotating motions, moving down to your jawline. Add a moisturizing serum for extra hydration too, and you should increase blood flow in your face for a healthy, plump, dewy complexion in no time
4) Use A Derma Roller
Next, you may wish to try a derma roller for facial beauty. The best thing is that you can quickly find a high-quality micro needle roller that only costs around $10. You can even see results by using it for just 60 seconds a day.
Derma rolling is so useful for two reasons. The first is that they provide excellent exfoliation. While the second is they stimulate blood flow and collagen production. Something that can help plump your face and encourage healing of scarring too.
5) Ice Water
Yep, probably the cheapest of all facial beauty hacks is washing your face in ice water. It's a hack that has unsurprisingly been around for a long time, too, with old Hollywood starlets swearing by it.
All you need to do is wash or rinse your face in ice water, and you will not only get a great pick me up, but your pores will shrink, have reduced redness, and you will get an overall tightening effect! Not bad for being 100% free!
