First time seeing a video of yours and it was excellent! I feel like when I talk only my bottom teeth show. I'd love to raise my mouth? I feel like it's possible?
Thanks for stopping by my channel 🌸💆♀ Mouth corners can be raised with face exercise (muscle) that's true, but not the whole mouth (bones) - that's more orthodontics!
Loved this video. I am working on getting a more symmetrical smile as I think many of us could do with some help with that. Will this method help? Or do you have any other suggestions or videos? ❤
Thanks Mandy, I'm glad this video was usefui to you 🌸this one will help with the mouth and low face symmetry, but we also need to think about eyebrow and eye symmetry for a balanced look. I have a face symmetry video I made in the previous months which might be helpful 😀
I have realized my facial musckes,lip corners, cheeks do not have to same level of tone or strength. I am following your toning excerises and gua sha tutorials. Would you recommend any other of your facial toning exercises to get them more same/same?
Thank you for your questions and for watching the videos💆♀🌷 it's a question of time and consistency I think, before you can feel the muscles stronger and feel more in control of them😀this will all come! I recommend the Natural Face Lift video, Face Volume, and Cheeks Workout to get the main muscles stronger and more responsive. I hope this helps! 🌸
Hi Polina, I'm a 60+ woman who has very little wrinkles (so grateful) but around my mouth it's what bothers me big time. So I'm hoping this workout is what I need to tighten those muscles-thank you. I will try these at night before bed. Appreciate you not just telling us but showing so we could follow along! I get everyone is different but how long will it take to see some difference and I'm assuming if one does it daily?
Thanks for your feedback and I'm happy you enjoyed the video🌸Yes this one will be good for any folds/lines around the mouth, and with daily application, you should be able to see some results in 4-6 weeks. Do also include face massage with oil to tone and smooth over the lines in this area, I have some in the Massage section which you might like, do take a look :)💆♀
Ho Polina, I have deep naselfold smile lines I'm trying to reduce. When I do this mouth corner exercise, I feel like the nasel folds need improvement to really help with down turned mouth. Do you have any suggestions? I'm 56 and really want lift and to improve these areas naturally. Thank you for everything you do❤
Thank you for leaving feedback 🌸 to improve the nasolabial folds, you need to work on lifting and toning the cheeks to 'pull up' the folds and smooth them out. Do check out the Cheek section on my channel, and choose the one that resonates with you most, hope this helps🌸💆♀!
I've just started watching your videos and I have a couple of questions if that's ok? Firstly, do you suggest doing these exercises once every day? Secondly one side of my face is definitely weaker than the other and noticeably more downturned and 'flatter', would you recommend doing more repetitions on that side or always do the exercises symmetrically on both sides? Thank you.
Hi Jules, thanks for your questions, and for watching the videos! Yes doing it daily is the best, if not, then 5-6 times a week as standard to see and maintain results. I would work on both sides in a balanced way so that the muscles work symmetrically 🌷
@@sorinlena thank you 😀 doing face yoga definitely helps to look best for the age, and I'm sure your face will benefit greatly too with regular exercise, whatever the age 🌷💆♀💟
Yes this will help with jowls, although I have a video specifically for jowls (little pouches down from the mouth corners) which you might like to check out 🌸💆♀
I find myself doing this a lot throughout the day since watching your video. I do notice my left side is droopier than the right. Any suggestions on how I can get that side tighter?
@@elliemerritt665 With regular exercising of your face muscles, any discrepancy between right and left side should gradually even out💆♀ keep going 👏🏻!
Every time we engage the muscles, we hold for 10 counts/10 seconds. you can repeat each one up to 3 times. For this no face oil, since we're doing strengthening of the muscles. It will help reduce the nasolabial folds (smile lines) since we're working here on cheek lifting and toning. Hope this helps!🌸
I dont believe it but it works. I go to the gym, when muscles hurt it means its developing, same with this exercise, theres pain meaning the facial muscles are activating. Remember "no pai, no gain"
Thanks for your feedback, we should be feeling the muscles working for sure, but not exactly hurting! It's a fine balance between engaging the muscles and overdoing on the exercises. SO fine-tune as needed please 😀🌷
Is bringing your lip corners up, as in step 2, the same thing as trying to smile with the lips turned in?? I’m not sure of the technique for this part.
Essentially yes, we're trying to smile with the lips wrapped in, although I deliberately avoid using the word 'smile' in the video as it means there will be an over engagement in the eye muscles which we don't want (we want more engagement around the mouth and in the cheeks). So think of it as connecting to the mouth corners and lifting them up (as if to smile) 🌸💆♀
Thank you for your question 🌸It sounds like it might be coming from the cheeks muscles which perhaps have got weak so I would suggest working on cheek lift and jowls lift, please check out my Cheek Lift section on the channel 🌸💆♀ I hope this helps !
hi Polina, when I engage the muscle can I hold for more than 10 seconds I mean 30 seconds each time? will it be harmful or not? plz reply. I,m 60+ woman & have deep marionate lines. You look amazing at your age.
Thanks for your question🌸 it will not be harmful if you were to hold for 30 seconds, as long as your technique is good and you're not overcompensating somewhere else and tensing there. You might like to check out my other video specifically on Marionette lines 😀💆♀
It's never too late to start so thank you for being here on my channel 🌸💆♀Yes absolutely - the droopy mouth corners happen because of slackening of the cheek muscles so you should add cheek lifting exercises into your daily routine. Please browse the Cheek section on my website and choose the video that resonates with you 🌷
It should never hurt when doing the exercises. Not sure why you feel so much pain, possibly you might be over engaging the muscles or compensating with squeezing up somewhere else in the face. So Please stop the exercises for the time being. You can retry again in a few days time, when you can try engaging the muscles gently so that you don't feel discomfort.
@@ElementalFaceYogawithPolina I appreciate your reply. Its after the exercises that i get sore, not really during. I thought i had to engage the muscles as much as possible, and i even did some of the exercises a couple of times more. I´ll rest my face for a couple of days and try engaging more gently.
We're smoothing the lines in so as to check that we haven't engaged into the cheeks, as this exercise should be felt in the chin, jaw and neck. It's telling the face to disengage the cheeks.
Thanks for letting me know, maybe it's worth lessening the muscle engagement on the exercise during which it hurts, so you can feel the muscles without the pain.
This is so excellent!!! Even months later!! Thank you!!!
Wonderful to know this 🌷😀 thank you so much !
This was really good, thank you. Just now went through exercises with you for the first time and i am on my way to smiling, naturally. Yay!

Please can I have a link for your eye wrinkles in the corners. Thankyou very much.
Hi Maria, I can''t quite decipher your question 😅-Are you referring to a link to another video?
@@ElementalFaceYogawithPolina yes. Do you have a video for eye wrinkles?
@@mariaangerber884 Yes I have quite a few videos for eye wrinkles, you can find them all in the Eyes Playlist 🌸💆♀
I can get my mouth corners on the same level in the first exercise, where I'm supposed to press them together. Is there anything I can do about this?
I'd recommend pressing the lips less so that you can create a neutral even line through the mouth corners as much as possible 🌸
@@ElementalFaceYogawithPolina thank you!
Will these tighten what I think are called jowels? My mouth has frown lines which are depressing, but I see my jawline looks droopy as well.

I do not understand how we should smooth out the lines with our fingers. Should we just press on the lines and smile while pressing?
Exactly, just position the fingers over the lines to smooth them applying a light pressure so no visible lines are formed💆♀
Why are we smooting out the lines with our fingers? Whats that doing for the face?
We're smoothing the lines in so as to check that we haven't engaged into the cheeks, as this exercise should be felt in the chin, jaw and neck. It's telling the face to disengage the cheeks.
I feel the burn in the corners.
That's hopefully a good feeling🌸😅😀
