👀👀 Dark circles under the eyes are not one problem.

Most people try to fix them with creams, patches, or cucumber slices.

But in reality, dark circles usually come from anatomy, blood flow, oxygen levels, genetics or aging. (Not the wrong serum)

The skin under the eyes has only 6 cellular layers and almost no subcutaneous fat.
That makes this area extremely vulnerable. Any change in blood circulation, oxygen supply, or pigmentation shows up immediately.

There are 7 real causes of dark circles:

• oxygen deficiency and chronic fatigue
• too much screen time and eye strain
• alcohol and smoking damaging blood vessels
• aging, posture, and neck tension
• genetics and inherited pigmentation
• deep-set eyes and naturally thin skin
• medical conditions that should never be ignored

Some of these causes you can fix.
Some you can improve.
And some, you need to understand and stop fighting.

The most important part is knowing which category you fall into, so you don’t waste time and money on solutions that don’t apply to you.

Question for you:
Have your dark circles been there since childhood, or did they appear later in life?

I’m a facialist who works in an industry that profits off your insecurity.

But I didn’t get into this work to make you feel ‘less than.’ I got into it because touch, release and circulation can make you feel connected and heal the parts of you that you reject
.
Aging to me means you take care of your face because you love it and not because you’re trying to fix it every little thing.

I love my work: in the treatment room and teaching you how to massage your own face. But let’s not forget where the real glow comes from:

You taking care of yourself from a place of love - neither neglecting nor over-obsessing 😘

Behind the scenes: 😆

Fist pic of me thinking I’ve nailed the angle for my next video whilst cutting of my face (not ideal when your content teaches people face massage 😝)

Second pic is me post filming with my sheet mask on about to edit this weeks videos for you guys.


Curious if you like me to share more behind the scenes type content like this??? Let me know in the comments ☺️

You're waking up puffy and this is why.

You're sleeping on your pillow in a way that compresses your lymph nodes behind your ear and down your neck, or you're carrying tension in your SCM (sternocleidomastoid muscle) from stress and bad posture all day.

It makes SO much sense because you can literally feel the tightness there when you press on it.

The reality is this tension isn't just making your neck sore—it's also:
* Blocking lymphatic drainage from your entire face
* Keeping fluid trapped around your eyes and jawline
* Pulling your facial tissue downward through fascial connections
* Making your face look swollen, tired, and less defined

The nasolabial fold (the line running from the nose to the corner of the mouth) forms for a number of reasons:

🫴🏻Loss of volume and decent of the cheeks


🫴🏻Tension in the muscles in the cheek area

🫴🏻Tension in the jaw and lower face that pulls down and compresses the tissues in the mid face

🫴🏻Fascia restricting fluid movement and drainage

🫴🏻Reduction of collagen fibres in the skin as well as bones shrinking with age which simply causes all of the face to slowly collapse inwards and down.

But let’s focus on the SOLUTION instead of the problem: 💪

What you see in the photo is a deep fascia release technique focused on the nasolabial fold and mouth corners.

➡️ It’s done without oil (you need good grip). Use a slow squeezing motion to increase blood flow, soften tension and rehydrate the fascia.

This move also stimulates circulation and collagen production in this area.

➡️ This leads the skin to become plump from within and smooths the wrinkles or lines.

Important to understand🚨

To achieve the best and most lasting results, you also need to release tension in the jaw, neck and cheeks so they stop pulling on this area.

I have created a structured and easy to follow self face massage system that guides you through all techniques in the right order.

Easy way to release tension and soften jaw pain:

1. Create a hook with your index finger.

2. Slide down from the cheekbone toward your jawline

3. Be aware of the working area: stay on the chewing muscle, if you’re not sure work close to your ear.

4. You can bite your teeth for a moment and you’ll feel straight away where the chewing muscle is.

5. Optional: add some cream or oil to the area for a little bit of glide. But you don’t have to

6. You can open your mouth a little while you’re doing this

7. You can do one side at a time instead of both at the same time…. It’s easier if you’re beginner ☺️
