Pushing Up The Lids
Here’s a simple exercise to firm up those sagging upper eyelids:
Push up your upper eyelids with your index fingers, placed just below the eyebrows. As you push upwards (don’t push too hard! just gently but firmly), squeeze your eyes, so that there is tension in the skin of your upper eyelids. You should feel the skin stretch. This exercise helps to strengthen the muscles in the upper eyelids so that they don’t become weak.
The exercise should be repeated several times, in sets just like weightlifting. While it is definitely not as effective as eyelid surgery, it can help fight the signs of aging, or at least delay them!
