The Best Luvly Alternatives for Face Yoga

Luvly is the best-known face yoga app, but it is not the only good one, and it may not be the right one for you. Here are the alternatives worth a look in 2026, compared on the things that actually matter: price, platforms, languages, and what each one is really for.

By Yasmine Team · Updated July 2026

What to look for in an alternative

People go looking for a Luvly alternative for all sorts of reasons: they want a different price, an instructor whose style clicks, an app in their own language, or something more focused than an all-in-one wellness bundle. Luvly itself is a polished app from Gismart that pairs face yoga video programs with skincare courses, an AR camera coach, an ingredient scanner, and meal plans, and it is well rated, with roughly 4.6 stars from about 20,000 App Store ratings as of July 2026. If that breadth is what you want, it is a strong option.

If you want something else, the good news is that the category has real variety. When you compare, look past the marketing at four things: which platforms it runs on, how it charges you (subscription, one-off, or freemium), which languages it actually supports, and whether it is pure face yoga or a wider routine. Those four points separate most of these apps more than any feature list does.

Best for
People who want guided face yoga plus skincare, and want it in a language other than English

Yasmine is our app, so read this with that in mind. It combines guided face yoga programs with a skincare routine builder and a skin analysis, and it tracks your progress with before-and-after photos. The routines are built around short daily sessions rather than long workouts.

The one thing we will point to as a genuine difference is language coverage: Yasmine is available in 14 languages, including Arabic, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Dutch, Portuguese, Czech, and Swedish, which most face yoga apps do not offer. If you would rather follow a face yoga practice in your own language, that is the main reason to try it.

Best for
People who like learning from one recognizable teacher

Koko Face Yoga is led by instructor Koko Hayashi and built around her particular framing of facial muscles as either overworked or under-used. It includes features like a mewing detector and an asymmetry analysis, which give it a more diagnostic feel than most.

It is English only and has a smaller catalog than the big bundles, but it is well regarded (around 4.4 stars on the App Store) and reasonably priced. If a consistent instructor voice matters to you, it is a natural pick.

People who want structured programs and live sessions from a well-known name

Face Yoga Method is the app of Fumiko Takatsu, one of the longest-standing names in face yoga. It leans toward structured programs and live classes rather than a quick daily-session format.

Its pricing runs high, with premium tiers reaching into the hundreds of dollars, and its review volume is low, so there is less of a track record to read. It suits someone specifically drawn to this instructor and willing to invest in her programs.

People who want a low entry point and broad language support

FaceYogi, from Lollitech, blends face yoga with facial massage and supports a wide range of languages, including Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish. It is highly rated, with around 4.8 stars from roughly 16,000 App Store ratings.

It is currently listed for iOS, so Android users are out of luck for now, and the weekly pricing option can add up if you forget to switch to a longer plan. As a lower-commitment way to try face yoga plus massage, it is worth a look.

How we compared them

We stuck to facts you can check yourself. Platforms, pricing models, and supported languages come from each app's App Store or Google Play listing as of July 2026, and ratings are the store averages on the same date. Prices are US listings; they vary by region and promotion, and free trials come and go, so always confirm on the store page before you subscribe.

We deliberately did not rank these one to five. The best app depends on what you want, so we have described what each one is for rather than crowning a winner. And because face yoga itself is a low-cost, low-risk practice, remember that you can learn a lot for free first: our guide to what face yoga is and our step-by-step exercises cost nothing.

Our honest take

If you want the broadest all-in-one bundle and do not mind paying for it, Luvly earns its reputation. If you want a specific instructor's voice, Koko Face Yoga and Face Yoga Method are built around exactly that. If you want the lowest entry price and happen to be on iOS, FaceYogi is hard to beat on value and language coverage.

Where Yasmine stands apart is language: 14 of them, including several that no other app here offers, alongside guided face yoga, a skincare routine builder, and progress tracking. If following your practice in your own language matters, that is our honest case for trying it. If it does not, one of the others above may suit you better, and that is a perfectly good outcome. Before you commit to any of them, it is worth reading the results you can realistically expect so no app oversells you.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best Luvly alternative?

It depends on what you are missing. For more languages and a face-yoga-plus-skincare routine, Yasmine (our app) is the closest match. For a single recognizable instructor, Koko Face Yoga or Face Yoga Method fit better. For the lowest entry price on iOS, FaceYogi is strong. There is no single best answer, only the best fit for you.

Is there a free face yoga app?

Most face yoga apps, including the ones here, are free to download with a subscription for the full library, and several offer a free trial. You can also start with no app at all: the basics of face yoga are simple enough to learn from a good written guide before you decide to pay for anything.

Which face yoga app has the most languages?

Among the apps in this comparison, Yasmine supports the most, at 14 languages, followed by FaceYogi at 11 and Luvly at 6. Koko Face Yoga and Face Yoga Method are English only, as of July 2026. If language coverage is your priority, that is the order to keep in mind.

Is Luvly worth it?

Luvly is a polished, well-rated app with a lot of content beyond face yoga, so plenty of people are happy with it. Whether it is worth it for you comes down to whether you want that broad bundle and whether it supports your language. As with any subscription, check the pricing and cancellation terms before you sign up.

How do I cancel a face yoga app subscription?

For iPhone and Android apps, subscriptions are managed through your App Store or Google Play account settings, not always inside the app itself. Cancel there before the renewal date to avoid the next charge. This is worth checking for any subscription app, not just face yoga ones.
