1-Minute Morning Mirror Check

How to do it

1. 1

   After washing up, check the mirror in the same spot and lighting.

2. 2

   Check eye level, mouth corners, and chin center in order.

3. 3

   Record changes weekly with an ALYGN analysis.

4. 4

   Note changes and adjust your routine.

Why it works

Checking at the same time, lighting, and angle creates an objective baseline. It shows whether your exercises are working — and reveals personal habit factors, like scores dipping the morning after side-sleeping.

Common mistakes

• Changing lighting and angle each time — the comparisons become meaningless.
• Reacting to daily score swings — the weekly trend is what matters.
• Logging without acting — the loop closes only when patterns change your habits.

Signs you're doing it right

After a few weeks, you start seeing patterns — puffy-day triggers, score trends. That emerging insight is the sign this routine is working.

Cautions

• · Don't stress over tiny day-to-day differences.
