Open and Tilt Back

Fake a Big Smile

If laughter is the best medicine, doing a big smile is the most effective way to enjoy lovelier cheekbones. All you have to do is make the biggest smile you possibly can. Make sure that you widen your eyes too in order to really target the muscles over your cheekbones. Hold it for about 10 seconds, and then relax. Do everything 10 times. By the way, make sure that no one is around when you plan on doing this exercise.

Push Your Cheeks Up

This exercise may seem like it’s not doing anything until you actually go back to the starting position. Place 3 of your fingertips on your cheeks just where they fold when you smile. Push up those muscles as you continue to smile, and hold for half a minute, then release. Do you feel that tension? It’s a sign that the exercise is targeting the muscles sitting over your cheekbones. This also helps zap fat in the cheeks.

Buzz Like a Bumblebee

Gently press your lips together and inhale through your nose. Make sure that you fill up your lungs with air. Slowly exhale through your nose while making a buzzing sound. Also, do some chewing action with your jaw. Performing all of this simultaneously helps shrink your cheeks to highlight your cheekbones. Do everything 4 to 5 times.
