PUFFY CHEEKS & DOUBLE CHINS?
3-STEP PUFFY FACE RESCUE PLAN
If you’ve been trying various diets and exercises to get your body looking trim, yet puffy cheeks
and double chins insist on hanging around, your problem could be due to facial water retention
– the accumulation and retention of excess fluid in the face, chin and neck. A women's skin
care creator, Vicki Southard, says it’s possible to sculpt cheeks and reduce double chins
caused by water retention. “Many of us are facial water retainers and don’t even know it.”
According to Vicki, the most common causes of facial water retention are allergic food
reactions from what we eat, including salt, sugar, MSG, food colorings and preservatives,
alcohol, and tobacco.
Reactions to environmental pollution, toxic chemical fumes, allergens like pollen and animal
dander can also puff up the face. In a small percentage of women, hormone imbalances and
glandular issues can also keep facial fluid levels high.
There are THREE SIMPLE STEPS which in most cases can successfully address the common
causes of puffy faces, swollen eyes and facial water retention:
The 3-Step Puffy Face Rescue Plan:
1. Discover the foods and environmental factors which seem to trigger your allergic reactions
and avoid them. You may need to keep a diary of things you eat and things you do that seem
to precede the bouts of swelling and puffiness.
2. Get enough sleep to feel rested and feel fresh
Lack of sleep can cause you to retain water and look tired so get more than enough sleep as
often as possible
3. Flush out impurities and toxins lodged beneath the skin with The Face Wrap facial sculpting
treatment (www.thefacewrap.com). Environmental toxins as well as chemicals and impurities
from cosmetic products may be irritating the tissues just beneath the skin, causing a buildup
of fluids, giving your face a puffy or bloated look. The 60-minute Face Wrap home facial
treatment uses natural minerals and salts which enter the skin and flush out the accumulation
of toxins.
“With the impurities flushed out, the key reason for facial water retention is eliminated, and the
face appears much thinner and trimmer,” says Vicki.
