Orbicularis Muscle Training: My 6-Month Experiment to Sculpt My Eyes and Smile

[CrackyLolra]

Why Orbicularis Training?​

We often focus on jawlines, cheekbones, and skin care, but the muscles that control our eyes and lips play a huge role in how expressive, youthful, and attractive our faces look. Toned orbicular muscles can:

• Lift droopy eyelids naturally
• Reduce under-eye puffiness and sagging
• Make your smile look fuller and more defined
• Improve overall facial symmetry and balance

These muscles rarely get any attention, but training them is like “mini-sculpting” for your face.

My Starting Point​

Before I started, I noticed my eyes looked a bit tired and saggy, especially after long days in front of screens. My smile was fine but somewhat “flat,” lacking that natural fullness I saw in some people.


I was skeptical but motivated to try — no surgery, no weird gadgets, just simple exercises done daily.

My Orbicularis Training Routine (Daily — 10 Minutes)​

For the eyes (orbicularis oculi):

• Eye Squeezes: Close eyes tightly for 5 seconds, then relax. Repeat 10 times.
• Eye Circles: Look in all directions slowly (up, down, left, right) to engage surrounding muscles.
• Blinking bursts: Rapidly blink for 20 seconds to increase blood flow and muscle activity.

For the mouth (orbicularis oris):

• Lip Press and Pucker: Press lips together firmly, then pucker out as if to kiss, hold 5 seconds each. Repeat 10 times.
• Smile Resistance: Smile widely while pressing fingers gently against the corners of your mouth for resistance. Hold for 10 seconds, repeat 8 times.
• Cheek Puff: Puff cheeks with air, hold 10 seconds, then slowly release. Repeat 8 times.

Progress and Results​

At first, it felt strange and my muscles got tired quickly, but I pushed through. By the 3rd month, I noticed my eyes looked less puffy and the skin around them felt firmer. My smile looked slightly more “awake,” and friends commented I looked less tired.


By month 6, the difference was subtle but definitely there in photos — my eyes appeared brighter and more lifted, and my smile had better shape and fullness. Plus, the routine became meditative and relaxing, which was a nice bonus.

---

What I Learned​

• Consistency is key — skipping days slowed progress.
• These exercises don’t replace skincare or healthy lifestyle but complement them nicely.
• Focusing on often-neglected facial muscles can enhance natural looks without surgery or injections.
• Patience is vital — results are subtle but add up.

Roid then

Show pics don’t believe a single fuck and doesn’t constant pulling cause more sagging??

This is garbage. Im working on a much more advanced orbicularis training protocol where you can actually finely tune the weight load on the cheeks and get a solid progressive overload all the way up to 10 lbs. Will upload results in 2026, although some people have already complimented my gains

(I shouldn't sound so pretentious. Its literally just stacking steel blocks and shot glasses on your face, the hard part was making a cup to hold all that which would work for the training)

I’ll do this on roids and see if anything happens

Disregard what i said, the program i made is actually a training for maxxing midface support/ogee curve (which does include the lower orbicularis oris) but i misunderstood what people were training the orbicularis for. you MIGHT be able to construct a similar program for strictly the orbics but it will take a lil bit more finesse

go ahead and squintmaxx if your goal is less uee or lower set eyebrows

stop gatekeeping and show the protocol
