Imagine doing a one handed "calendar" on your cheek instead of on your other hand as the base. There is no movement going back, but a down and then an out forward movement. I hope this helps.

Query on sign "experience thoroughly" since I don't have a video of the sign, is the hand coming straight back (which would mean under the chin to get a palm up, or is it rubbing the face straight back, which would make it half/half to the side of the face.
