Want lifted skin and a snatched jawline without the hassle and cost of an actual facelift? Enter: Facelift tape.&nbsp;

Picture this: You and your best friend just took a photo together. She hands you the phone to examine the picture. Instead of admiring your sparkling eyes and wide smiles, your eyes are immediately drawn to something taking up precious real estate on your forehead&mdash;wrinkles and fine lines. While there&rsquo;s nothing wrong with the natural creases in skin, they can be irritating, bothersome, and a source of insecurity. What&rsquo;s the solution, though? Let&rsquo;s be real: botox and injectables can be expensive and unrealistic, considering the lines will return once the treatment wears off. But you&rsquo;re in luck. TikTokers are sharing an inexpensive trend that with continuous use can give you and your forehead (and jawline) the facelift of your dreams.&nbsp;

Take a look below with L'Officiel, as we break down this viral trend.&nbsp;

What exactly is face taping?

Well, it&rsquo;s exactly what it sounds like&mdash;using tape or some form of sticky patches to help reduce wrinkles, contour and re-shape areas of your face and give you that Naomi Campbell <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/gisele-bundchen-draftkings-tom-brady" target="_blank" rel="noopener"></a>face of your dreams.

What is it being used for?

One of the main areas of concern when it comes to wrinkles is the forehead. Instead of getting botox&mdash;which can be super expensive and oftentimes unrealistic for someone in their mid-20s, given that the wrinkles will just return once it wears off&mdash; taping might be a solution for you. Smooth out any current wrinkles on your forehead by lifting the skin upwards and placing the tape or patches on top. Voila. With continuous use,<a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@theaussierapunzel/video/7083989658522209537?_t=8ToZGi4UQEF&amp;_r=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> TikTokers are swearing that they have seen a reduction in those pesky forehead wrinkles and fine lines</a> on their face.

TikTokers are also using face tape to give them that supermodel taut skin, lifted eyes, and snatched jawlines. <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@chloewaterz/video/7069057752693247238?_t=8ToZaFq4yhK&amp;_r=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Other forms of face tape come attached to a string</a> that matches the colour of your hair. Whether placed near the eyes, on the jawline, or near your cheekbones, some forms of tape come attached to a small string that blends into your hair. Once pulled upward for the desired look (say goodbye to those jowls), you can easily hide the magic string in a ponytail or amidst your tresses.&nbsp;
Any other ways taping can be used? While it seems a tad scary and like it might actually not be the safest idea, some TikTokers swear by taping their mouth shut before their nightly snooze. Not only are <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@op_e___n/video/7088756168948026666?_t=8ToZexGFHPq&amp;_r=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TikTokers saying that it teaches your body to breathe only through your mouth which can re-shape your mouth in the process</a>, but it can help your <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@corylrodriguez/video/6948526673172155654?_t=8ToZotei8BX&amp;_r=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">oral health</a>, and other symptoms like <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@amayaveiga/video/7078353024485264682?_t=8ToZg5i9tpW&amp;_r=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sore throats, too</a>.
