To begin with, close your lips smoothly. Try to pull your cheeks towards your eyes. That is, raise the corners of your lips by smiling widely. Hold for about 10 seconds. Smiling is an excellent way to exercise your cheek muscles. The best thing about smiling is that it also elevates your mood.
3. Fish Face
This
exercise is good for the cheeks and jaws too. It also gives your lips a
great shape. To begin with, softly close your lips. Draw your cheeks
inwards as much as possible, which gives a 'fish face' look and hence
the name of the exercise. Try smiling while holding this posture.Hold
for about 15 seconds. Relax and repeat the exercise for five times.

To
begin with, close the lips firmly. Suck air through mouth and then puff
up your cheeks. Try to hold the air for about 5 seconds in your right
cheek and then exhale. Switch and hold the air in your left cheek.
Repeat the same for 10 times and then get back to the original posture.
5. Puppet face
This
exercise works on your entire face. It will strengthen your cheek
muscles, so that they do not become loose. Most people go for botox to
get this kind of look. To begin with, place the tip of your fingers
where your cheeks crinkle on your face when you smile. Push your cheeks
up at this point and hold the smile. Stay in this posture for thirty
seconds and then return back to your original pose.

After
performing all your facial exercises, your cheek muscles may feel
exhausted. This exercise is mainly done for relaxing your muscles and to
overcome soreness. To begin with, sit or stand in a comfortable
position. Relax your shoulders and open your mouth and eyes as much as
possible. This will stretch your cheeks. Be in the position for twenty seconds and then come back to the original posture.
