My natural facelift plumps lines and wrinkles – it’s just good my husband’s already sleeping when I come to bed with it
A SKINCARE enthusiast has spilled her secret to a better complexion – and it takes place during a good night’s slumber.
She said her anti-aging tip gives her a natural facelift, erasing fine lines and wrinkles.
Cindy Currie (@mommycurrie) filmed herself discussing the technique in a video, calling it a “natural facelift” in her TikTok thumbnail.
“You got to be careful with this stuff because once you start using it, you’re going to want to use it everywhere,” she said of her go-to product: face tape.
“Comes in this great big, long roll. You can cut it to the size that you want. I actually originally got it for my marionette lines.
“It creates a barrier on your skin and that naturally tells your body to pull fluid to that area, plumping out those lines before bed and I leave it on overnight.
“Circulation to that skin is actually helping to also create collagen production.”
She then directed viewers how to use it.
“Smooth out the skin and apply the tape,” she said.
“I tell myself every night that I’m just going to apply a few pieces. It’s probably a good thing that my husband is already in bed sleeping,” she added.
She cleared up questions people had about her methods, including taking care of wrinkles around the mouth.
“Someone asked me if they could do above their top lip. The answer is yes.
“I do use a collagen HA matrix supplement. [I have been] using castor oil for the last two months, which I love,” she added.
She said her hack also works during the daytime.
“You can also wear it during the day,” she said.
“Some mornings I’ll wake up and I’ll feel like, ‘Oh, there’s a little crease there.’ And I slap a piece on. Just leave it on for a few hours.”
She also highlighted the healing benefits of the tape.
“Side note, I had a nail that ripped, like, way down,” she said as she pointed to her fingernail. “[The tape] actually protected it and helped it to start healing really quick.”
“You can put it under the eyes sometimes [when] can get that little creasy crease,” she said, referring to a crease that some people get while sleeping.
“When you do it consistently, it makes everything so much better. In the morning you can just take it off because you can put it back on the backer and you can use it the next night,” she added.
By this, she meant that you can place the tape back on the little strip that protects the adhesive, making it reusable for another time.
