After cleansing, smooth some cream over your face. Make a loose fist of each hand and, starting with the second joint of the knuckles at the base of the throat, move up to the chin, under the jawbone, out to the car lobe, and behind the ear to the hairline. Start again at the base of the throat, work up the chin under the Janybone to tbe ear, and up to the temples. Kread at the temples for a few moments, then continue to the forehead. Work extra hard around this area of the "frown= Ing Imme
Next, place the hands at the chin, and "walk" the knuckles up the expression lines to the corners of your nostrils. Continue under the cheek-bone to the temple and over the forehead. Then place the kmacicies at the temples, and with rotary, kneading motion, continue under the eye towards' the bridge of the nose, and over the eye, forming a complete circle.
