The SKIMS Face Wrap may be here, but this MAREE mask is almost identical
Many beauty trends and products snatch my attention, but this one, quite literally, snatched it.
So like, let's talk about the SKIMS Sculpt Face Wrap that's taking over the internet (and, surprise, surprise: it's sold out). That's right — facial shapewear is now out in the open, as the beige, Velcro-secured mask made headlines for its jaw-sculpting claims and futuristic aesthetic.
While undeniably trendy, the SKIMS wrap sparked debate over whether compression alone could deliver lasting results. Which brings us to something far more exciting — and effective — for those chasing real skincare benefits: the MAREE Chin-Lifting 24K Gold & Collagen Lifting Mask, currently on sale on Amazon.

If the SKIMS wrap is fashion's answer to facial toning, the MAREE mask is its skincare-savvy counterpart. It's rich in active ingredients, sensorial in experience and backed by glowing reviews.
Stating the obvious: this is not your average sheet mask. It's a sculpting treatment infused with 24-karat gold, collagen and hyaluronic acid, designed specifically to firm and lift the chin and jawline. Think of it as the spa day your lower face has been waiting for. It's active-driven skincare at its finest.

Let's talk ingredients in more detail. First, there's collagen, a powerhouse protein that gives skin its elasticity and firmness. Over time, our natural collagen levels decline, making this ingredient essential in any anti-aging regimen. MAREE delivers it in a deeply hydrating formula that targets sagging around the jawline.
Next up, hyaluronic acid, which is my all-time favorite ingredient for hydration as a beauty product tester as it truly allows your skin to retain moisture. Fun fact: one gram of hyaluronic acid can hold up to six liters of water, so imagine what it can do for your skin's plumpness and glow. Then there's the 24K gold, not just for show; it helps boost microcirculation and delivers antioxidants, which combat free radicals and support overall skin vitality.
But the real magic of the MAREE mask isn't just what's in it. As its design showcases, it's all about how it's used. Each mask is pre-shaped to fit comfortably under the chin and along the jawline, securing gently in place. After cleansing your skin, you simply apply the mask, sit back and relax for 20 to 30 minutes while the formula gets to work. It's perfect for a self-care evening or a quick refresh before a big event. There's no mess, no fuss and no Velcro straps required.
Why it's worth It
While a facial wrap might offer temporary sculpting via compression, the MAREE mask goes deeper, nourishing the skin with clinically respected ingredients that address the underlying causes of sagging and dullness. With regular use, you'll likely notice improved skin texture, more definition along the jawline and a noticeable boost in hydration.
Plus, many reviewers on Amazon mention that their skin feels smoother and firmer after just one application. Some even say it gives an immediate tightening effect that makes their face feel refreshed and rejuvenated.
This mask also wins points for being incredibly user-friendly. You don't need a full spa setup or even a bathroom mirror to get the most out of it. Toss one in your travel bag, slip one on during a Netflix binge or treat yourself on a Sunday afternoon. It fits seamlessly into any routine — and looks just luxurious enough to feel like a true indulgence.
And yes, it's currently on sale, making now the perfect time to try it. For the price of a couple of lattes, you can bring home a targeted treatment that delivers both instant gratification and long-term skin benefits. It's a small investment in glowing skin and a sculpted jawline…without the need for invasive procedures or constricting shapewear, of course.
So while the SKIMS face wrap may turn heads on social media, the MAREE 24K Gold & Collagen Lifting Mask is quietly winning hearts in the skincare world, one lifted jawline at a time.

Reviewers Have Spoken: No Need To Search Further, These 37 Products Reign Supreme
TruSkin vitamin C serum, which *six separate reviewers* are calling a "magic potion." It's formulated with hyaluronic acid (to provide a boost of hydration), soothing aloe vera, and vitamin E (in addition to the namesake vitamin C) — a combo designed to brighten and smooth your skin for your glowiest glow yet. And money-saving alert: reviewers say it's comparable to the SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic serum (which costs $182 for the full-size, btw!). A 3-in-1 foldable magnetic wireless charger perfect for at home or traveling, so you can charge your iPhone, Apple watch, and AirPods all at once without wasting space on bulky chargers or dealing with tons of cords. Several reviewers note that this connects better and lasts longer than the name-brand versions. A racerback bodysuit in a second–skin–like fabric (called Smoke Cloud), reviewers compare to Skims and love for being buttery soft and *not* see-through. And once you fall in love with this sleeveless style, don't worry; it comes in tons of sleeve lengths and necklines! A *flippable* Belgian waffle maker, because flipped waffles = crispier outsides and fluffier, airier insides. YUM. And reviewers agree the ceramic nonstick plates are *truly* nonstick. Plus, it stores vertically, which means it saves space on your countertop or in your cabinets, too! A bottle of Nizoral anti-dandruff shampoo formulated with 1% ketoconazole that doesn't just banish annoying flakes, but actually works to kill the fungus that causes dandruff. You can use it just twice a week, too! My all-time desert island holy grail, CeraVe's Skin Renewing night cream, which delivers on hydration and softness and protects your skin's natural barrier — I won't use an expensive night cream again. It's fragrance-free and non-comedogenic (aka it's designed not to clog pores), and it's packed with powerhouse ingredients like ceramides, peptides, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid. There's a reason people can't stop talking about CeraVe on TikTok! A heated vibration massage seat cushion so you can turn *any* chair into a ~massage chair~ — even your sofa, your car passenger seat, or your desk chair. That's one way to improve that meeting that should have been an email! FYI, it's not a shiatsu-style massager with rolling balls, but reviewers swear by the powerful vibration motors for a relaxing, knot-reducing massage. SweatBlock antiperspirant wipes, which are designed to reduce excess sweating for *up to seven days*(!!). Just swipe on before bed, and kiss those pit stains that ruin your favorite shirts goodbye. They're designed to be used under the arms, but reviewers use them elsewhere, too! A set of breathable seamless thongs that over 10,000 5-star reviewers (including those who "never wear" thongs and "hate" thongs) swear by for looking seamless under clothes and staying actually comfy all day. And thong lovers say they are just as good or better than brands like Skims and Victoria's Secret. Essence's Lash Princess mascara, which over *200,000* 5-star reviewers swear by for dramatic length and volume *without* clumps, thanks to the flake- and gob-free formula and cone-shaped brush. All for *under $5* too — meaning you'll actually replace it as often as you're supposed to. A pair of TikTok-famous Cushionaire "recovery" slide sandals that seem to get more popular with every passing day — and for good reason. Reviewers swear the molded cushioned footbed (made from a *waterproof* foam) stays comfy for hours and hours, whether you're using them as at-home slippers or actual outside shoes. Plus, reviewers say they're great to help with their pain from plantar fasciitis, bunions, spondylolysis, and more — ahhh sweet relief. A set of super-sized (9.5 inches!) and super-soft satin scrunchies to keep your hair out of your face while dressing up any outfit — from loungewear to a fancy occasion. Satin is great for protecting hair, too, whether you use 'em for your sleeping bun or as a fashion accessory! An oscillating tower fan one reviewer nicknamed "THE GLACIER" *and* said is "better than your air conditioner." (I'm immediately sold.) It has six speeds — up to 24 feet per second velocity — and three modes, and reviewers agree that it's super quiet. Installing a window air conditioner can be you have to do is plug this in! Or if you are actually in need of some true AC, a portable Black & Decker air conditioner (that also works as a dehumidifier and fan) with all the power and cooling you need, without any permanent changes — you can even move it easily from room to room as needed. And reviewers note it's much cheaper than running central air! A set of colorful fine-point pens to take your to-do list, planner, study guides, or journal to the next level. If you've dreamed of color-coding your life, these will make that a (fun!) reality. And best of all, they're designed to not bleed through thin pages, so your the space in your notebook will feel ~pristine~ when you get to it! A standing weeder, a genius tool to help you use the magical force of leverage to pry up weeds without having to bend or kneel — saving you time *and* saving your back and knees from the stress and strain of regular ol' weed-pulling. A plant-based stainless steel cleaner to remove streaks, marks, residue, and fingerprints from all of your appliances with *one* wipe of the included microfiber cloth. And it helps keep fingerprints and smudges away — reviewers say the shine lasts for days! The TikTok-famous Bissell Little Green carpet and upholstery cleaner that sprays on water and stain-fighting cleaner, then sucks it away to blast away years' of mess — on carpet *and* furniture. Reviewers love it for banishing pet stains, spills, and more — without having to waste a lot of their valuable storage space. A pair of buttery soft high-waisted Colorfulkoala leggings you can stock up on in several colors for the price of *one* pair of the very similar Lululemon leggings. These babies are just as squat-proof, ohhhhhh-so stretchy, and very soft. How soft? Several reviewers (including pregnant people!) say they could live in these. A clear (stadium-approved!) purse that'll be your immediate go-to for any concerts or stadium games you have coming up — or any event with rules around bags. This'll hold everything you need and look cute doing it. A Bissell CleanView bagless vacuum designed with a specialized brush roll for picking up embedded pet (and human) hair, powerful suction on carpet and hard floors, and an easy-empty tank so you don't have to (gag) touch all of that icky stuff. Retainer Brite tablets to make deep cleaning your retainer or Invisalign easier than you think! Just drop one into a glass of warm water, along with your retainer, Invisalign, dentures, mouth guards, TMJ devices, etc., to remove odor, buildup, and other gunk. They can even kill bacteria and remove cloudiness and staining! The ChomChom, a pet hair-removing roller with a patented brush design (and *no* wasteful adhesive strips) to rid your lovely black sofa of all your furry friend's shedding in a quick roll — so you can get back to cuddling together. And a *self-cleaning* grooming brush to easily and effectively remove excess hair from your pet (so it doesn't end up all over you and your home). What makes it self-cleaning, you ask? Simply push a button on the side, and the bristles retract so you can sweep away all the pet hair you just accumulated right into the trash. A set of exfoliating gloves so you easily can scrub off dead skin cells and reveal softer, smoother skin during your Everything Showers. Just lather up and (gently!) massage your skin — reviewers say this is great for preventing ingrown hairs, helping reduce KP, and using before applying fake tan! These babies come in three types — light, moderate, and heavy — so you can choose based on your skin type and how often you use them. A bottle of Angry Orange Pet Odor Eliminator, which *knocks out* stubborn, strong smells like cat or dog pee that tend to linger over time. It's formulated with orange oil, so it has a lovely citrus scent that smells great in the short term while (as the name implies) eliminating those gnarly odors once and for all. A set of internet-famous Mellanni sheets made of a super-soft and moisture-wicking microfiber fabric over 250,000 5-star reviewers (wow!) love for being cozy and sleeping surprisingly cool — at an unbeatable price! You just might want to ditch your expensive, name-brand sheets for these babies after the first night — lots of reviewers have. A set of Rubbermaid Brilliance containers to streamline your food storage cabinet once and for all. Once you try them, you'll be ruined for your old containers. They're completely clear, shatter- and stain-resistant (no lingering tomato sauce stains!), leakproof, and designed with built-in venting lids to make mess-free reheating (no microwave splatters!) a breeze. A TikTok-approved, compact Levoit air purifier with a true HEPA filter because dust, pollen, and pet dander can get you DOWN (and sneezy) — and make it look like you haven't cleaned in ages, when you totally dusted yesterday. This'll suck so much out of the air, you just might find yourself dusting (and sneezing) less often! And it can help your home smell fresher, too. The Pink Stuff, a TikTok- (and reviewer-) beloved cleaning product that miracles! Name your mess, and this mildly abrasive paste will take care of business — including but not limited to bathroom tiles, sinks, stove tops, painted walls, grills, and outdoor furniture. A pair of seamless Nippies silicone pasties to solve any wardrobe dilemmas that can't be solved with any of your current bras — or those times you don't feel like wearing a bra at all but also want a little coverage. Not only will these look invisible under clothes, but the adhesive stays *put* through sweating and activity, so you can wear 'em with confidence. A set of bed bands that will keep your fitted sheets neatly tucked under your mattress, if that ~loose~, wrinkly feeling keeps you up at night (honestly, same). Now you'll sleep more comfortably *and* be able to make your bed wayyyy faster in the morning. And as any self-proclaimed neat freak knows, making your bed is really the best way to start a productive day. A set of packing cubes to keep you from shelling out cash on checking a bag when you can't quit your over-packing ways. You can fit these (and the tons of clothes compressed inside) right in your carry-on, or make the very most of your checked bag! Then you can organize them by day, clothing type, ~segment of your trip~ (like city/beach/weather), etc. A Kindle/iPad remote control page-turner, because your e-reader is already convenient, but this takes it to the *next level*. Why lift your hand or risk dropping your Kindle on your face (I've done this *so* many times) when you can just sit back, relax, and turn the page with a click of a button? And btw, a lot of reviewers like to use this with a gooseneck tablet holder, so they don't even need to hold their e-reader at all! A lightweight, contoured sleeping mask that'll block every beam of light and never press down on your eyes, so you'll completely forget you're even wearing it. That makes it just as great for getting shut-eye on a plane as it is at home when the sun rises wayyyy too early or your neighbors just won't ever turn their lights off. A sleek 5-in-1 humidifier/diffuser with a super quiet noise level and seven different LED light colors (you can also use it without the light!) to ~set the scene~ for your bedtime routine — use lavender or your favorite nighttime-friendly essential oil for an extra boost. A pair of insulating blackout curtains to keep annoying sunlight OUT and your precious air conditioning (and heating in colder weather) IN — you might be surprised when you see how big of a difference this makes during the hottest part of the afternoon!

Canadian wildfires spark NY air-quality alert: ‘Can pose serious health risks'
Canadian wildfires may be posing 'serious health risks'' to people in New York — prompting an air-quality alert for the state through Monday and a warning for some regions into Tuesday. The metro area's current ailing air quality and hazy skies are hampering the five boroughs, Long Island, Hudson Valley, Adirondacks, eastern Lake Ontario and Central and Western New York regions, according to an alert issued Monday by Gov. Kathy Hochul. Canadian wildfires cloak Manhattan in haze last month. Luiz C. Ribeiro for New York Post Advertisement Pollution from fine particulate matter fueled by the wildfires is expected to push the local Air Quality Index past 100, meaning it will be unhealthy for sensitive groups, including children, older adults and people with heart or lung conditions. In some areas, the index could go above 150 momentarily. The tiny particles can cause eye, nose, and throat irritation along with coughing, sneezing and shortness of breath. They can also worsen asthma and heart disease. Advertisement 'New York continues to track air quality conditions across the state, and people in certain areas may notice visible smoke throughout the day,' Hochul said in a statement. The advisory remains in effect through 11:59 p.m. Monday, but weather patterns are anticipated to bring more spikes in smoke in certain regions across the state Tuesday. Wildfires destroy scores of acres in British Columbia. AP Officials urged everyone in sensitive groups to check their local Air Quality Index and take precautions, including limiting outdoor activity. Advertisement 'Poor air quality can pose serious health risks — especially for those with heart conditions, lung diseases, such as asthma, young children, those over 65 years old, and pregnant individuals,' New York Health Commissioner Dr. James McDonald said in a statement. 'To reduce exposure, limit strenuous activity outdoors.' The smoky situation is just the latest to cloud city skies this year. Multiple alerts were issued in June when ozone pollution and wildfire haze from Canada triggered warnings across the tri-state area. Advertisement More than 700 active wildfires are currently blazing across Canada, with roughly two-thirds of them still out of control, according to the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Center.

TruSkin serum works harder than your ex ever did — oh and it's 56% off
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. In this gilded jungle of serums with price tags that sound more like rent payments than skincare staples, finding a $20 bottle that doesn't ghost you after three uses feels like swiping right on someone who not only texts back but also shows up — on time, moisturized, and maybe even with a dog and a home upstate. TruSkin's Vitamin C Serum, a two-ounce glow potion the Post has long-time adored — with over 150,000 outstanding Amazon reviews and a cult following that speaks for itself. Let's be real: This serum isn't that flashy. The bottle doesn't necessarily win many minimalist design points, and it doesn't pretend its ingredients were hand-foraged at sunrise on a Himalayan cliff. What it does have is a straight-talking trio of Vitamin C, Hyaluronic Acid, and Vitamin E. A powerhouse blend that politely tells dark spots and fine lines, 'It's closing time'. Think of it as the Olivia Pope of skincare: handles crises (sun damage, hyperpigmentation, laugh lines that aren't very funny), leaves no trace, and works best when layered under SPF and a fun-flavored latte. I've shelled out for serums that arrived in velvet boxes and smelled like regret. I've bought into creams that needed a mini spatula and a prayer to apply. Most of them left me with nothing but an overdrafted bank account and a faint scent of lavender. But TruSkin? It's refreshingly low-maintenance, wildly dependable, and gives your face that rested, radiant look (no spa weekend or Facetune required). Bonus: It's cruelty-free, vegan, and suspiciously unscented, which, for skincare aficionados, is like finding a New York apartment with no broker's fee and an in-unit washer-dryer. If your face is looking like a map of the MTA lines, dark zones, and a general sense of chaos, this serum is your express train to smoother, brighter, 'I woke up like this' territory. Just don't be surprised if people start asking for your skincare routine…or your ID. For over 200 years, the New York Post has been America's go-to source for bold news, engaging stories, in-depth reporting, and now, insightful shopping guidance.
