Some people are lucky enough to be born with a strong and defined jaw line because it is genetically supported. If you're not that lucky, don't be discouraged. There are several things you can do to accentuate your own jawline. Maybe you just need to lose some weight to make your jawline look more defined. Or maybe, you need to consider the right diet and clothing choices. Whether you were born with a defined jawline or, conversely, less prominent, nothing can stop you from looking as fresh as possible!
Step
Method 1 of 4: Jaw Training
Step 1. Consider signing up for a facial exercise program
If you're really serious about accentuating your jawline appearance, there are several exercise programs you can follow. This program will guide you through various exercises and movements that will improve your facial appearance. Compared to other fitness programs, facial exercise programs are inexpensive and easy to follow.
Step 2. Smile
Some people tend to smile, while others don't. In fact, smiling has a myriad of benefits for facial muscles. Just like any other muscle, if you train your facial muscles regularly, your face will appear brighter and firmer. Smiling can be a powerful exercise because it is psychologically linked to a happy mood. So, if you get used to smiling spontaneously, it's possible that your mood will improve too.
Step 3. Tighten and relax the jaw
If you want to improve your jawline, you should also try practicing it yourself. Try tightening your jaw for 10 seconds, then releasing it again. You may feel a little uncomfortable, and there is a slight burning sensation in the muscles. Try to do as many as you can, but for starters, 10-15 reps should be fine.
- Over time, you should increase the number of reps in this jaw-tightening exercise. That way, the jaw muscles will be tighter.
- It shouldn't be difficult to incorporate jaw-tightening exercises into your daily routine. Since this exercise doesn't make your face look silly like most facial exercises, you can do it at work or on the train.
Step 4. Do the chin lift exercise
Lift your head up and look up at the ceiling. Next, stretch your lips as if you are trying to kiss something that is 2.5 cm higher. Hold this stretch for 5 seconds for each rep, then return to a relaxed position and allow your lips to heal. Repeat this exercise as many times as you want, but 10 reps is considered good enough. This exercise can be a powerful way to increase facial firmness because it targets a variety of facial muscles.
Step 5. Massage your temples
Massaging the temples and spreading the eyebrows can improve blood flow and circulation throughout the face. Use two fingers of each hand and massage the temples in small circular motions. Massage for 30 seconds for each session.
Massaging the temples is also known to combat migraine disorders
Step 6. Do the fish face exercise
Exercise " fish face " is perfect for tightening the cheeks and jaw. Suck your cheek from inside your mouth and try to smile. Hold this position for at least 5 seconds for each rep. You'll feel a little uncomfortable, and at the end of each rep, your muscles will feel a little warm. This is actually good because it means the movement has stretched the muscle. Repeat this movement 10 times as an initial exercise, and increase the number of repetitions according to your ability.
Facial exercises like the fish face are very easy to fit into your daily routine as long as you don't forget to do them. You can do it in the shower or before bed
Method 2 of 4: Keeping Healthy
Step 1. Drink water
There are so many benefits that you can get by drinking lots of water. However, not everything can be explained here. In short, pure H2O intake is essential to improving overall health, but unfortunately, is often underestimated. Drinking water can help you lose weight and increase your energy throughout the day. In addition, excess moisture will increase circulation throughout the face. Most of the benefits of drinking water affect your jawline indirectly, but it is one of the best ways to make positive physical changes.
- If you are overweight, drinking water can help you lose weight because water makes you feel full without carrying the excess calories that are usually found in soft drinks and nutrient-poor foods.
- Drinking water has also been shown to speed up the body's metabolism.
Step 2. Reduce salt consumption
Modern food contains a lot of salt, which is bad for the skin. Finding ways to reduce salt in your daily diet (including trying to eat healthy foods and reducing nutrient-poor foods) will have many positive benefits for your skin. The skin will carry less water so it doesn't look puffy and as a result it's harder for the jawline to appear.
Many alternative diet programs are designed around the idea of limiting salt intake. Do your research, and find a diet program that works for you and your lifestyle
Step 3. Get enough sleep at night
You must have heard the advice to get at least 8 hours of sleep every night. Most people try to get by with 5-6 hours of sleep. However, if you want the best jawline look, you should try to get a full 8 hours of sleep so that your body can properly care for itself.
Step 4. Quit smoking
As with salt and lack of sleep, smoking can also be disastrous for the appearance of the skin. If you are an active smoker and want a better jawline, there is nothing wrong with quitting smoking. Even though it's difficult at first, the appearance of better skin after a month will keep you very enthusiastic and keep you motivated.
Step 5. Chew gum
You can rely on chewing gum to emphasize the appearance of your jawline. Chewing gum has many surprising benefits, and one of them is toning facial muscles. You can see results in a few weeks. Plus, chewing gum is a lot of fun. So, it is not difficult to make it a habit.
Method 3 of 4: Choosing an Appropriate Beard Look for the Jaw
Step 1. Consider keeping a beard if the jaw line is less defined
Not everyone is born with a chiseled jaw. If you're not satisfied with how your jawline looks, keeping a beard is arguably the best way to make your face look fuller.
Consider your general face size. The beard creates a contrast that makes the face look smaller. If you have a fairly wide face, growing a beard can help balance it out. On the other hand, if your face is small, choose a short and neat beard style
Step 2. Trim the beard with a firm neckline
Keeping a beard can have a significant effect on the appearance of your jawline. One of the mistakes that men often make is trimming the neckline too high, usually adjusted to the arch of the jaw. This step gives an effect that makes the jaw look weak and less defined. If you tend to trim a beard with a higher neckline, try to grow it longer than usual, while making sure the line is firm and easy enough to maintain.
If you're having trouble deciding which neckline is right for you, try imagining a curved line that goes from your left ear to your right ear. This line should extend far below the jaw line, and will give a fuller look
Step 3. Choose a shirt collar that suits your face shape
In the world of fashion there is a general rule that the choice of style will be influenced by the area around it. Usually someone chooses a shirt without considering the shape of the face, but if you are trying to accentuate the jawline, what you choose becomes even more important.
- Oval faces have the widest part around the cheekbones, and are longer than other face shapes. If you are lucky to have an oval face, you can more freely apply a variety of style options.
- Those who have a round face should choose clothes that make the face look longer. Shirts with collars close together are very suitable because they can give the impression of a longer face.
- Square or square faces have the opposite problem to round faces. If you have a square face, avoid making your face look full. Shirts with flared collars can help you with this.
Step 4. Trim your beard regularly
While a beard that grows thick and unkempt looks manly, it will be much more effective and impressive if you take a little time each day to keep it neat. You should also trim any beards that grow past the neckline, and trim any hair that grows too long and unruly. A well-groomed beard will have a great effect on the jawline.
Step 5. Use moisturizer regularly
Blemishes and pimples can ruin your hopes for a firm jawline. Even if you don't have acne problems, there's nothing wrong with taking care of your skin. Using moisturizer regularly can make your face look brighter. Use an oil-free moisturizer and clean your face thoroughly every few days. Changes don't happen overnight, but you will notice improvements in your skin's condition after a few weeks.
This step will be especially helpful if you have skin problems, such as acne
Method 4 of 4: Beautify the Appearance of the Jaw
Step 1. Use a good skin toner
A good skin toner will prevent sagging skin so your face and jaw will look firmer. Dead skin cells that accumulate on the skin will make the face lose its natural glow and firmness. So it's important to keep your skin moisturized and glowing if you really want a chiseled jawline.
Try to use astringent toners because they are very good for tightening the skin
Step 2. Use products that can increase the production of collagen in the skin
Collagen is an active ingredient in the skin that helps maintain skin firmness. Some facial cleansers and toners encourage collagen production in the skin. We recommend that you do your research before buying the product. You can also get collagen injections, but the unnatural side effects make collagen injections not recommended, except as a last resort.
Step 3. Accentuate the jaw with cosmetics
You can use cosmetics to subtly accentuate the appearance of your jawline. There are several ways that can be done; if you're not used to using cosmetics, you may have to try it a few times to get the right effect. This technique should be applied gently and lightly. That way, people won't notice that you're doing certain tricks to improve the appearance of your jawline.
- Contouring your cheeks and jawline with a light bronzer will make your jawline look more attractive. Apply bronzer in a thin, downward motion. Choose a bronzer that is a shade or two darker than your natural skin tone.
- Subtly accentuating the jawline will accentuate the shape. Add a line about 5 cm just above the jaw line. This line will define the visual appearance of the jaw.
- Using a small amount of bronzer and sweeping it along the jawline and neck will blend the cosmetic effect on top. Make sure you apply it lightly. The goal is to make the contours of your face appear more unified.
Step 4. Consider liposuction
Surgery may also be considered if you want a quick solution to improve the appearance of the jaw, just like the rest of the face. In this procedure, digestive molecules will be injected directly into the area to be repaired, and burn excess fat. This process also promotes positive collagen growth. Consult a doctor if you are interested in surgery.
If you want to have a chiseled jaw, plastic surgery will help and may be effective, but the costs and possible side effects make this procedure a non-recommendation unless you've tried all other methods and it doesn't work
Tips
- Paying attention to other parts of your body, such as your nose, cheeks or eyebrows, can affect how your jaw looks in other people's eyes, though indirectly.
- An undefined jaw line is often caused by excess fat in the body. Adopting a healthy diet and exercising regularly every morning will give you the improvement you want.
