In our previous post, we tackled the now-trending question, do jawline exercises work? You may even be surprised to know that face and jawline exercises exist! A trend highlighted by several celebrities, facial exercises are now becoming accessible by the everyday man and woman. They have a range of benefits, from helping promote elasticity of skin to making your appearance more youthful. Several celebrities have endorsed facial exercises, swearing by them to help maintain their ageless looks.

Read up about these 5 celebrities and facial exercises to see if some simple movements can help us maintain our youthfulness.

Madonna

The Queen of Pop is 61, but looks nothing like it. Her face has remained as constant as her ability to wear the crown designating her Pop Queen. The secret to her seemingly unreal beauty? A steady regimen of facial exercises. Madonna has been working out her face muscles by doing facial exercises for over a decade, according to her exercise mentor Eve Fraser. Fraser herself is a name well known in high circles, and her guidance on the exercises is clearly proving beneficial for the music icon. She has been seen going to the icon’s house to help with the facial exercises that have clearly been working.

Meghan Markle

Meghan Markle is the latest personality to endorse the benefits of facial yoga. In an interview with Birchbox, she explained how the exercise helps maintain her sculpted face. “I do facial exercises… you sculpt your face from the inside out. On the days I do it, my cheekbones and jawline are way more sculpted.” Markle turns to Nicola Joss, a renowned aesthetician, for the yoga. She also does facial exercises at home. We must say, since her time on ‘Suits’ to now being Duchess, her face looks as youthful as ever!

Cindy Crawford

When it comes to secrets of maintaining youthfulness and beauty, there’s no one better to turn to than a supermodel. Known for having some of the strictest fitness regimes, models often know the tricks of the trade. Which is why when Cindy Crawford spilled the beans, we paid close attention. The 52-year-old said, “Over 20 years ago, I saw a woman doing exercises for her neck. She explained that if you keep those muscles toned, it helps preserve the line of your jaw. You can do these exercises anywhere, but I usually do them as part of my workout.”

Instructing readers on her exercise, she says she lays flat on her back with her chin pointed up, and lifts her head an inch off the ground, then brings her chin to her chest. Repeating this a few times each day is one step of her facial exercise regime.

Sharon Stone

Ever since she rocketed to fame at the dawn of the 1990’s, Sharon Stone seems to have captured the attention of all, thanks to her seemingly flawless skin. The 62-year old is simply a strong believer in looking after her skin. In her own words, “My mum gave me a jar of moisturizer when I was a kid and told me to cleanse and moisturize morning and night so that’s what I do.“

One part of her skincare routine involves facial massages. They have prevented wrinkles from forming around her eyes and kept her skin looking youthful, showing minimal signs of ageing. Pair this with a strict diet and skincare at home, and you can look as stellar as she.

Jennifer Aniston

This radiant celeb doesn’t seem to have aged a day since her time on popular sitcom FRIENDS. Her secret? The woman with a million fans is reportedly a fan of facial exercises. In fact, she is purported to be one of the main reasons facial yoga increased in popularity since its emergence.

Aniston is also known to drink copious amounts of water, and insists that you must stay constantly hydrated for your skin to flourish. Water, sleep and sunscreen are her anti-ageing tips, and these paired with facial exercises are clearly doing her a ton of good. While no one knows exactly how long Aniston has been doing the exercise or what her regime is, she’s clearly doing something right!

Natalie Portman

Yet another one to join the ranks of ‘ageless’, Natalie Portman follows a strict skincare routine to maintain her youthful face. Part of this is facial exercises that help maintain elasticity and retain her sculpted looks. She has a facialist, Thuyen Nguyen, who also plays a role in maintaining the looks of several other A-list celebs.

Conclusion

Now that you’ve read about celebrities and facial exercises, you could try them out yourself! Unlike these A-list celebs, you don’t have to hire a facialist or aesthetician. There are several facial exercises you can try out at home itself. You can even purchase the Jawzrsize ball that helps you get a more sculpted face. Just make sure you remain patient and consistent, and you just might stay as youthful as these celebrities.
