Produced by Maelys, the B-Tight Lift & Firm Booty Mask is a lotion that allegedly helps improve the appearance of your booty and inner and outer thighs by toning loose skin, increasing firmness and elasticity, and reducing the appearance of cellulite.
The company makes it clear that the mask shouldn’t be used on your face, but that it will give your butt a noticeable lift with regular use.
This review examines the crams purported benefits and whether there is any scientific backing to it.
How Does the Serum Allegedly Work?
According to the company website, the B-Tight Lift and Firm Boost Mask will give you a significant reduction in cellulite and loose skin after an average of three weeks of use.
To put the product to use, the brand suggests applying a generous layer of the cream to your thighs and booty and leaving it in place until you feel a warming sensation. At that point, you should massage the location into your skin until it’s fully absorbed, not washing off any excess.
Maelys states that you can apply the mask up to twice a day, though it’s best to avoid exposing your rear to direct sunlight for at least four hours after application.
How long will each jar last? While the company states that this will vary depending on your usage frequency and the size of the area you’re covering, they note that twice-daily use should give you at least a month’s use from every jar. Each subsequent jar should last longer, as the company suggests reducing your usage to just twice a week.
What makes this booty mask effective? The company states that the secret lies within its ingredients.
What Are the Active Ingredients?
B-tight Booty Mask contains five key ingredients that are responsible for its purported benefits: pink pepperslim, guarana plant extract, collagen, EcoSlim, and red grapefruit oil.
Are their proven skin tightening benefits associated with these ingredients? Let’s look closer at the facts.
Pink Pepperslim
According to ProTec Ingredia, Amora, and Codif, pink pepperslim is a South American berry that improves cell metabolism, helps promote fat burning, prevents new fat accumulation, and enhances blood circulation. For these reasons, it’s a common ingredient in sculpting creams and Codif-funded research revealed it could lead to a reduction of up to 2cm in the waist size of users.
Ecoslim
This proprietary ingredient in B-Tight Masks purportedly has a 46% higher caffeine concentration than standard extracts, which makes it an instant metabolism booster and toxin remover. We weren’t able to find any further information about Ecoslim from the company at the time of publication.
Red grapefruit oil
The Maelys website tells us that red grapefruit oil helps improve circulation and reduce fat accumulation, which reduces the appearance of cellulite and gives skin a firmer look. However, we couldn’t find any peer-reviewed research that validated these claims.
Guarana (Guarana Plant Extract)
This Brazilian plant contains a broad range of stimulants and antioxidants that boost the fat-burning process, thanks primarily to its caffeine content (4-6 times more concentrated than coffee). While initial research shows the plant has promise for improving skin appearance and promoting weight loss, the studies we looked at were based on test tubes or involved ingesting guarana, not applying it topically.
Collagen
Collagen is an essential compound for your health and that it promotes skin elasticity, helps the body burn fat and reverses the sign of aging on the skin. However, the available research primary looked at the benefits of collagen supplements, not topical treatments.
The product website states that the B-Tight mask contains numerous other inactive ingredients, including caffeine, coffea arabica leaf/seed extract, hydrolyzed collagen and paullinia cupana seed extract.
What can we conclude from this ingredients list? While there is some evidence that the active ingredients in B-Tight Light & Firm Booty Mask can boost weight loss and keep skin looking younger, there isn’t conclusive evidence that they will work as described when applied topically or that the purported effects will be extreme enough to be noticeable.
For these reasons, we think that Maelys is making bolder claims about the efficacy of their booty mask than the current evidence can support.
What Is The Cost?
At the time of writing, the B-Tight Lift & Firm Boost Mask website stated that the product was exclusively available at Maelyscosmetics.com, though we also found it listed on Amazon (fulfilled through Maelys). Saying that, the company noted that they planned to release the product in stores soon.
There were three purchasing options available at the time of writing: one jar (priced at $49), two jars (priced at $40 each) and three jars (priced at $35 each). Each purchase is a one-time payment -not a subscription- and shipping is free for all US orders.

Customer Reviews of B-Tight Lift & Firm Boost Mask
The reviews on the Maelys’ website seem to show so. At the time of writing, this product averaged five out of five stars after 670 reviews, most of which stated how surprised customers were that the product worked as described.
The brand also published the results of a survey they sent to 150 customers in September 2018 that revealed that over 90 percent of those questioned agreed that their skin was tighter and that their cellulite was reduced. A full 95% also purportedly stated that they would recommend the mask to a friend.
At the time of writing, Amazon had 25 reviews for the booty mask, and they averaged just under 4.5 stars. Numerous customers noted that the product eliminated their cellulite and helped them tone up.
Most of the reviews we read showed that customers appreciated the instant warming feeling when they applied the product, though some thought the product was too expensive for the size of the jar they received.
Other reviewers were less impressed and stated that the results were subtler than they expected, though they thought there was still some noticeable improvement.
The Bottom Line: Should You Try the B-Tight Lift & Firm Boost Mask?
B-Tight Lift & Firm Cream makes some bold claims that aren’t necessarily backed up by the science we read.
The company states that the mask’s five active ingredients allow it to tone loose skin on your thighs and buttocks, increase overall firmness, and reduce the appearance of cellulite, and there is some evidence that a few (pink pepperslim, guarana, and collagen) can deliver.
However, the evidence we looked at focused on supplements, not topical solutions.
That being said, it’s hard to ignore the overwhelmingly positive online reviews about this product, and the company offers a relatively generous 60-day money-back guarantee policy. If you’re interested in the kind of results a booty mask claims to deliver, you might want to consider giving B-Tight a try.
So long as you use less than half of the product, you will qualify for a full refund if you’re unsatisfied with how well it works.
