Inge Theron knows firsthand the ins and outs of the latest beauty treatments. During her four years undercover as the Spa Junkie journalist, she visited 57 spas and underwent 25 anti-aging treatments. This led her on a quest to find a non-invasive procedure that could tighten and tone skin and ultimately, to her FaceGym concept. Noting that the human face has over 50 muscles, she determined that facial muscles deserve a workout to maintain a tight, lifted appearance just like any other muscle in your body. Similar to your gym routine, her workouts include warm-up, cardio, strength, and cool down – only while sitting in a chair with a therapist (or Face Trainer) working their magic massage techniques on your face at one of her London studios. Routines and supporting products are also available on FaceGym.com. Inge shared her beauty tips, musts, and more with us here.
The first thing I do when I wake up is…
I drink Echinacea tea with a supersonic Manuka honey, kiss my two little daughters good morning and we do our beauty routine. The girls brush their teeth and mummy does her five-minute cleansing facial exercise routine.
The last thing I do before bed is…
My five-minute hydrating and sculpting facial exercise routine.
I feel most beautiful when…
I have been on a weeklong yoga retreat, ideally in the jungles of Mexico.
My favorite beauty product is…
I am very fortunate to have a custom beauty blend bar filled with cold-pressed fruit and vegetable oils in the studio so I pop in every weekend and have the mixologists blend me an oil or a cream. I’m currently obsessed with our new Passionfruit Oil. It’s so delicious and nourishing for spring.
To age gracefully, I recommend a person’s skincare regimen change with…
Every decade. You should have a beauty reinvention. In my 20’s I started paying more attention to my skin, started using products and started my interest in Facial Exercise. In my 30’s I started using advanced physician formulated brands and now, in my 40’s, I don’t go more than two weeks without a high-tech face workout using laser lights and currents.
I splurge on…
Silk pajama suits made by my husband’s tailor in Milan. I get a new set every season. It’s heaven and thankfully they look so smart I often don’t get out of them on the weekend.
One beauty tip that may surprise you is…
Eye lift exercises. It’s so simple yet so effective at staving off the appearance of saggy overhanging eyelid skin, eyelid bags, and dark circles or lines around the eyes. And what’s best is, it’s free.
