💆 5 minutes a day to reduce frown lines

Jun 16, 2025

At Glowing Skin, we don't just treat wrinkles with products. We also work on tension, muscle habits, and facial awareness . This is the case with the famous lion's wrinkle , the vertical line between the eyebrows, often caused by stress, concentration, or repeated micro-contractions.

Good news: a simple, targeted, and regular massage can make all the difference.

🎯 The objective

This 5-minute facial massage is designed to:

Relax the corrugator muscle , responsible for this famous wrinkle
Gradually smooth the interbrow area
Re-educate upper facial tension
Bring a moment of calm (yes, even 5 minutes counts!)

🕐 The protocol – step by step

🔁 Frequency : 1x per day, ideally in the evening
🧴 Product : A light oil or glide-on serum to avoid pulling the skin (like Comfort Zone's Renight Oil )

⏱️ 0:00 – 0:30 | Preparation

Warm a small amount of product between your fingers.
Gently place your index fingers in the center of your forehead, between your eyebrows.
Perform 3 slow presses, breathing deeply.

Purpose : To signal to your nervous system that you are relaxing.

⏱️ 0:30 – 2:00 | Muscle relaxation

Make small, firm circles between your eyebrows (10 times in each direction).
Then, with the knuckles, gently scrape upwards from the root of the nose (3 times).

Goal : release deep tension in the frontal muscle.

⏱️ 2:00 – 3:30 | Smoothing

Smooth upwards with index fingers (5 times).
Then, smooth in an arc towards the temples , maintaining firm but sliding pressure (5 times).

Tip : Remember to breathe slowly at the same time.

⏱️ 3:30 – 4:30 | Stimulation

Very lightly pinch the skin between the eyebrows with your thumb and forefinger.
10 to 15 symmetrical, rhythmic but gentle pinches.

Purpose : to awaken microcirculation and re-tone the area.

⏱️ 4:30 – 5:00 | Calming

Place your index fingers between your eyebrows again. Close your eyes.
Apply 3 deep pumps while breathing slowly.
You can finish with a general smoothing from the forehead to the temples.

✨ Results with regularity

A visibly more relaxed forehead
A less pronounced lion's wrinkle
Better awareness of your microexpressions
A feeling of deep calm , directly linked to the trigeminal nerve
