In addition, essential oil massage can help promote metabolism. Essential oil massage can accelerate the excretion of waste in the body through the circulation of blood and lymph, promote the absorption and utilization of nutrients, and effectively improve the metabolism of the whole body.
Essential oil massage
1, preheat the essential oil first.
When massaging, take the essential oil and put it in your palm. Put your hands together to preheat the essential oil. After preheating, the components of essential oil are more easily absorbed by the skin.
2. Be sure to massage from the bottom up.
Apply the preheated essential oil evenly on the palm of your hand and all over your face. Massage gently with the fingertips of index finger, middle finger and ring finger from bottom to top, in order from chin, cheeks, eyes to forehead. Because essential oil can soften the skin, massage the whole body first but relax the tight skin.
3. Improve the roughness of the nose and chin.
Nose and chin are places where sebum is easy to accumulate. Massage evenly bit by bit with your fingertips like a circle. Massage with essential oil every day can effectively prevent acne and blackheads.
4. Massage acupoints to eliminate edema
Press the eyebrows and the temples of the inner corners of the eyes with your fingertips. In the sunken place below the cheekbone, gently press the second joint of the index finger, as if it can relieve the pain.
5, make the deposited waste discharged from lymph.
Finally, the waste deposited on the face is discharged. Use the side of the little finger to pass through the neck from behind the ear, and press slightly hard along the direction of waste discharge in the clavicle depression.
6. The massage is over
After the massage, some essential oils that cannot be absorbed by the face will float on the skin surface. Because the residual essential oil will damage the makeup, you can wipe it with a cotton pad dipped in emulsion. By the way, after massage with essential oil at night, apply a hot towel to your face for 30 seconds, the essential oil can be better absorbed and your skin becomes more tender.
