Gone are the days when it was just about finding the right skincare products – nowadays, it’s high-tech devices that have shoppers raving about results.
While we’ll always champion a well-formulated serum or facial oil, combining it with the right tool can have transformative results – as shoppers of this nifty little Amazon gadget have found.
The ANLAN Face Massager (£28.79 down from £35) is boldly described by Amazon as a ‘wrinkle remover’, and aims to reduce puffiness, tighten sagging skin and define the jaw area. Not to mention getting to work on ironing out fine lines and wrinkles.
ANLAN Face Massager
Now we’re full advocates for positivity around ageing and the beauty of a face etched with laughter lines. Having said this, any tool that promises to help smooth, sculpt and lift our faces via natural methods has our attention.
Particularly when the reviews are so glowing, as in the case of the ANLAN Face Massager.

Shoppers claim that since using the device their skin feels ‘tighter’ and ‘lifted’, with over 1,000 loyal customers rating it with five stars. Not bad for a tool that currently costs under £30.
‘It feels like my skin is tighter and really smooth, like some sort of light exfoliation/ cell renewal,’ wrote one shopper, before continuing, ‘Neck lines improved as well. I’m now using it only once a day.’
While another said, ‘Cheekbones and eye area are noticeably lifted after use and an overall snatched feeling in the face and neck. If I pay extra attention to my 11s and fine lines on my forehead, a much smoother complexion is achievable.’
And a third wrote, ‘I’d seen this a few times and wondered if it was any good, I’ve now been using it for just over two weeks and the difference to my skin is amazing it’s smoother my jawline looks more defined and I look more lifted it really is brilliant.’
So how does the ANLAN Face Massager work? This tool goes a step further than the likes of a Jade Roller or Gua Sha, using different light settings and microcurrents to treat the skin.
There are three modes – red, blue and green. The red mode uses EMS (Electric Muscle Stimulation) to improve skin elasticity by activating collagen, while the blue mode is said to calm and balance the skin, encouraging nutrient absorption.
For those who suffer from acne (or just the odd pimple), the green light helps to clean out pores and clear the skin. All while providing a relaxing self-massage.
In every mood, the temperature is set to 45 degrees and this warming effect on the skin when combined with massage will help to flush out toxins, promoting circulation and accelerating nutrient absorption – meaning it’s a great tool to use alongside your favourite serum.
Shoppers have also commented on how it makes a great addition to their lymphatic drainage routine. ‘Love to use this service to de-puff my face each morning and night with lymphatic drainage massage. Sometimes with a cream and sometimes just on the skin,’ wrote one happy customer.
Lymphatic drainage – along with other types of massage – can help to de-puff and define the face and jaw. The technique was developed way back in the 1930s by Dr Emil Vodder and his wife Estrid, a naturopath, to treat patients on the French Rivera.
But its popularity as a facial treatment has skyrocketed in recent years with skincare enthusiasts looking for ways to achieve Kardashian-esque bone structure using natural methods.
And the best news about this handy tool is that it’s currently on sale with 18% off the original price, bringing it down to £28.79 from £35.
An absolute beauty bargain, considering that the likes of FACEGYM’s Medi Lift EMS Mask costs a rather more expensive £483 at Space NK.
So what are you waiting for? These options are still less than a facelift… and that’s #GirlMath for ya.
