Smile using chopsticks

Yet another use for the humble chopstick, as suggested by the Panasonic Beauty Magazine.

(Rough translation)
Start off the day with a smile! Lift the spirits of those around you and project a cheerful image! Forcing yourself to smile seems difficult at first but it will eventually be natural and has many health benefits.

Simple way to practize: bite a pair of chopsticks so that both ends protrude from the sides of your mouth. Use a mirror to confirm that your resulting smile is not lopsided or forced.

Personal comment: Pick chopsticks which don't splinter easily and whose ends are relatively uniform in diameter, otherwise one might end up with pierced lips ; )
