-Push lower lip up and down using chin muscle.
Cheeks :
-head back. three fingers on apples of cheeks and push down. raise cheeks by smiling.
-Push cheek out with thumb and bring the cheek back towards teeth against the pressure.
-Form an exaggerated "O" with your mouth by pushing your lips out as far as possible. Then smile is brightly as you can.
-pull bottom lip over top lip smile. Tilt chin slightly upwards until feel pulling on neck.
Eyes :
-partially winking one eye at a time, and holding the wink for a second, and then repeating the movement.
-Place three centre fingers underneath the eye, pull down, and try to close your eyes.
-Place the ring and middle fingers at outer corners of eyes and pull toward the hairline, while squeeze eyes shut.
-place index fingers under eyebrows. Push up while closing eye.
