Having a sharp jawline can give your face a more defined and youthful appearance. But not everyone is born with a naturally chiseled jawline, and not everyone wants to go through the expense and risk of plastic surgery. Luckily, there are a few non-surgical ways to help improve the appearance of your jawline.

1. Stay hydrated: Drinking plenty of water can help keep your skin looking healthy and full, which can in turn help give the appearance of a more defined jawline. Aim for at least eight 8-ounce glasses of water per day.

2. Eat a healthy, balanced diet: A diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins can help keep your skin looking healthy and your facial muscles toned. Avoid processed and sugary foods, which can cause bloating and contribute to a less defined jawline.

3. Perform facial exercises: There are a number of facial exercises that can help to strengthen and tone the muscles in your jaw and neck, giving the appearance of a more defined jawline. Some popular exercises include "fish faces," "neck rolls," and "jaw clenches."

4. Use contouring makeup: Contouring makeup can help to create the illusion of a more defined jawline by using shades that are lighter and darker than your natural skin tone. Use a shade that is slightly darker than your skin tone along the jawline and a shade that is slightly lighter on the center of your face to create the illusion of a sharper jawline.

5. Get plenty of sleep: Getting enough sleep is important for overall health and can also help keep your skin looking healthy and full, which can contribute to the appearance of a sharper jawline. Aim for at least 7-9 hours of sleep per night.

6. And finally, chew harder foods: Chewing harder foods puts your Masseter muscles (those responsible for the width of your jawline) under pressure, causing hypertrophy - or, muscle growth. When you constantly train these muscles, just like your biceps at the gym, they respond to the extra chewing load & command growth, resulting in a sharper jawline. Remember, chewing can help exercise muscles, but not change your bone structure. A strong chewing gum like mastic gum can help achieve this due to its hard properties, or incorporate nuts, carrots, steak & chewy foods.

By following these tips, you can help improve the appearance of your jawline without going under the knife. Remember to be patient and consistent, as it may take time to see results.
