A Chin Up Mask was sent to me for the purpose of this review. This post contains affiliate links.
I was really excited to hear about the Chin Up Mask, because I’ve always struggled to get rid of my double chin, even when I wasn’t really overweight. There’s no way I’d be able to afford surgery to get rid of it, so a surgery-free face mask sounded like a dream come true!
My double chin has been a stubborn issue since my late 20’s. I hate that it’s there and I hate that it doesn’t seem to go down, even when I lose some weight.
When I was approached to review a Chin Up non-surgical face lift mask, I was ready to try anything. It sounded amazing, but I must admit, I was sightly dubious, I just couldn’t understand how a mask could shed my unpleasant double chin!
I was ready to give it a go, so I said ‘yes please!’ and it arrived promptly.
After accepting the generous offer to try it, I started doing my homework. After all, it sounded too good to be true, but I was desperately hoping it would be the solution to my problem.
After a quick Google search, I saw that there were some fantastic reviews out there, so I couldn’t wait to get started. I was sent a Chin Up Mask Trial Pack.
The trial pack contains the slimming band, two face masks, some instructions and a tape measure. This is what the slimming band looks like and the single use masks sit inside.
Instructions were included but I still wanted to see it in action before I put it on myself, so I watched a video on the ChinUp website.
Before you start, you are meant to measure your chin in two different places. One measurement is ear-to-ear along your jaw line and one measurement is ear-to-ear but below your jaw line. For me that’s the bit where my double chin hangs
You then apply the mask to your chin and neck then wear the slimming band as per the instructions. If you want to make sure it’s on the right way round, I suggest you have a look at the video on the website too.
The results
The measurements I took before any treatments were as follows:
Along the jawline 25cm
Below the jawline 23cm
This is what my double chin looked like:
I applied the mask, donned the slimming band, and looked as stylish as you’d imagine.
I left the mask on for the suggetsed 30 minutes, then massaged my under chin area and removed the band and mask. I was very excited to measure and see if there really was a difference.
My measurements after were as follows:
Along the jawline 23cm
Below the jawline 21cm
And this is what it looked like:
I was honestly amazed! I couldn’t believe it made such a difference! You are advised to do this regularly to maintain the results, so I did it again the following week. I forgot to take my before measurements but my after measurements were:
Along the jawline 22cm
Below the jawline 19.5cm
I think by shrinking my double chin, my face look thinner as a whole (and I’m by no means a slim woman).
How does it work though?
From what I can gather, it boosts the lymphatic drainage system (which is something that can make you look bloated if it’s not draining properly). It also uses a formula that helps tighten the skin. The slimming band plays a part in lifting and contouring the skin around your jaw, neck and even cheeks. There is also a moisturising element which helps moisturise and nourish the skin to help fight the signs of ageing.
Those are the basic explanation, but there is more information of the Chin Up Website if you’re into the sciencey bit.
Just a quick note. It would seem Chin Up is no longer in operation. From what I could tell, the compression from the band and help with lymphatic drainage from the wet mask worked together for results I saw. If you’re looking for a similar replacement, you might want to try a combination of the two products below. I haven’t tried them personally but it’s what I’d give a go if I was planning to experiment.
Great results
Can’t say I’ve used anything nut I’d certainly give this a whirl
I didn’t think it would work anything like how it did! I was incredibly impressed!
so its been a while since you used the product. Did the result last? or the double chin was back? and if it was back how long did it take it to come back? Im trying to figure out the durability .. I cant buy this product for every week use for the rest of my life to get rid of my double chin just temporary!
The results lasted a few days but I think that’s all the product is designed to do, like those wraps you can get done at a beautician’s for fast temporary results. I did it again for my wedding, but it’s not meant to last forever. I’d say it lasts about 4-5 days so great for any special events.
I thought I already commented on this but guess not, I neeeeeed one of these as the only thing I hate about my whole body is my Chins
Haha same! I emailed the PR lady and there’s rumours of extending the range to other areas! How exciting is that!
Looks like a great product! It does appear to have made a difference. How long does the effect last overall?
It says a few days. I found that the massive difference lasted 3-4 days and by day 7 it was smaller than the original measurement but not as small as the first few days after. When I did it again I did notice the results did build up.
Great review thanks! Never tried anything like that before! Knowing my luck I would have the chin mask on and the door bell would ring lol!
Haha I answered the door to the postman with one of those black masks on once! That’s the only trouble with things like this!
Oh amazing! I’d love to reduce my double chin x
WOW this looks and sounds pretty impressive!!! I am currently on a health programme, trying to lose weight and I would definitely turn to this chin mask for a little help along the way!
WOW! Great results. I think I need this in my life!
Oh wow! This is going to be on my Christmas stocking fillers list if I can wait that long. This is a definite for me
I would love to introduce my double chin to this mask!
i would love for my double chin to disappear aha x
Great results. You are a very beautiful woman.
I need this! It sounds really good x
I looks good but a bit on the expensive side
i suffer from the double chin, this would be really handy!
It’s so good, I just can’t believe it!
not seen anything like this before. great review.
It’s amazing!
Wow this is cool! Would definitely give this a try.
The difference is insane isn’t it?
Wow, you can really see a difference in the before and after pics!
I was so impressed, I really didn’t expect such a visible difference!
This is crazy! I’m so impressed! Looking fab 🙂 (before and after, of course!)
Wow! Well, I think there is a difference x
It’s worth a go isn’t it when you seem to have had such good results. I hate my double chin in photographs.
Looks like an amazing product, and it does appear to have made a difference.
Know I would use it enthusiastically, but it would end up in the bottom of the drawer eventually, I have no staying power
Wow I could so do with this
Looks like it really works well
Never heard of these before but you got great results!
Not sure I could wear this with my children have a feeling I may end up in hysterics
Ill give anything a go!! Would honestly prefer one that goes around my belly though!!!!
OMG i need this! Amazing :O
That looks awesome, I would love to try it out x
Yes certainly impressed, it has definitely helped to improve your chin area, what a great product.
This looks like a great product – would love to give it a try
I am surprised that the product made such a difference. Well worth trying for a special event and there is probably nothing more special than a wedding. However, I would not invest in products that do not provide a long lasting result.
Wow this looks great, well worth a go.
I’ve never had a chubby face but always had abit of a double chin so would love to try thus product.
This looks interesting. I didn’t even realise these straps were a thing. Thanks for the competition.
I am on meds and became overweight in few months.I have fat in all worst places including chin.
Great results! I should give this a whirl.
Haha this looks great! I think a double chin is cute though.
Heard of it, but unless it was free, do t think I’d bother trying it
Wow this looks amazing! Never heard of it before 🙂
not heard about this before, but I would give t ago
sounds wonderful. I have a double chin so when taking photos put my head at an angle so people can’t see it
I would love to get rid of my double chin, and might give this a whirl
wow looks amazing!! will have to try! read so much about it and i think youve just convinced me to try it! x
Well, I would certainly have been very sceptical had I not read your review and saw the results in your photo!
Never used anything like it. There’s always a first.
Sounds great, would love to give this a try
I would love to try this product thanks for the great review!
This looks great but I feel my daughter would crack up if she saw me walking around the house in this! 😛
Wow this is amazing and does seem to work! fabulous idea!!
I’m wondering is it the mask or the band that has the effect? Has anyone tried using the band without the mask ? And if so, what were the results?
I’ve never tried but I know other brands do a sheet mask without the band, but I don’t know how good it is.
Hi, I was wondering if it’s the compression of the band rather than the ingredients in the mask that has the effect? Would be interesting to find out! I’ve ordered one so I might carry out a little experiment!! X
