Asayake Facial Massage

Asayake means “morning glow” in Japanese. This type of massage calls for the palms to be chilled with cold water to tighten and awaken the skin. Repeat the following five-step process five times.

Step One: Apply moisturizer onto your hands to allow them to glide on the skin. (Refer back to pages 59–63 for the best moisturizer for your skin type.)

Step Two: Gently massage your hands up along your neck.

Step Three: Move upward from the center of your chin along the jawbone, applying light pressure.

Step Four: Lay your fingers against your nose and move outward along the orbital bone.

Step Five: Place your fingers above your eyebrows and glide upward toward the hairline.
