1. Apply The Cream
In order to give your face a massage, apply slightly more of your moisturizer to your face than usual. Ideally you should place five small dollops on your face – one on your forehead, one on each cheek, one on your chin and one on your neck.
2. Massage Your Neck

3. Use Your Fists
Next ball your hands and use your knuckles to gently massage your skin in an upward and outward motion. Go from your chin to your cheeks in one swoop for about twenty strokes. Then repeat this motion from underneath your nose going outwards to your chin.
4. Tapotement
