A BEAUTY guru in her late thirties has revealed the secret to her age-defying appearance.
She said she’s never had any cosmetic injections as her skincare routine includes a natural alternative to Botox.
Nadine (@thenaturalnadine) has garnered over 124,000 followers on TikTok, where she shares beauty tips.
She warned against getting Botox because “it’s an extremely potent neurotoxin” before demonstrating what she uses instead to slow the signs of aging.
“You definitely need to try this natural Botox alternative that actually works,” she said.
“I’ve been doing it for years and I’m 37 years old.

“I’ve never done Botox, filler, or any type of cosmetic procedures.
“I’ve had a deep forehead line on this side for years,” she said pointing at the area.
“It’s actually getting softer and smoother as time goes on as I’m practicing this.
“It also helps prevent and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

“It’s just doing face-taping at night while you sleep.”
Nadine held up a black tape and scissors as she prepared to demonstrate her three-step routine.
“Step one is just doing your normal skincare routine,” she said.
“Wait 20 to 30 minutes for your skin to settle before applying the face tape.
“Step two is to cut up your shapes and make sure to follow the lines on the tape.
“They are there for a reason,” she said showing the lines.
“Then you wanna fold that tape that you just cut in half because you’re gonna cut up half of a heart shape.
“This is gonna be for your 11 lines.
“Then for reducing and preventing forehead wrinkles like that deep line I have on the right side of my forehead, we’re gonna cut it up into these oval shapes.
“Again, follow the lines that are already on the face tape.”
Nadine peeled the bottom of the tape off to reveal a sticky surface that should be applied to her face.
She slightly lifted the skin before applying the tape to the area and rubbing it to stick.
“Step three when applying the tape, you want to gently lift your skin,” she said demonstrating.
“Place it on there and then rub it in slowly.”
She revealed in the caption of the video how often she repeats the anti-aging hack.
“The easiest way to get a natural Botox look while you get your beauty sleep,” she said.
“Face tape + other natural Botox alternatives in my Amazon. You can face tape three to four times a week.”
Over, 3,600 people liked the video and many viewers took to the comment section saying they were eager to try it for themselves.
Nadine linked to Amazon’s Auruza store, which sells facial tape for firming and tightening.
The product description says, “solve all kinds of facial wrinkles problems: such as forehead lines, frown lines, lower eyelid lines, eye lines, nasolabial folds, mouth lines, puffiness, etc.
“This facelift tape can Lift the face with rejuvenating results.”
The $8 anti-aging product has a 3.8-star rating from customers, with one reviewer saying they could “instantly” feel the lifting after applying it.
“I was pleasantly surprised just how well this tape works,” they wrote.
“I instantly could feel the lifting after applying it.
“It’s completely comfortable and the tape stays in place overnight. It does not hurt or cause skin issues for me.
“It’s just like peeling a bandaid. Obviously, you can’t yank it off or you’ll feel it more.
“Overall, I’m very pleased and I can see my forehead creases decreasing already!”
