NuFace Trinity ELE + Wrinkle Reducer Review ~ Eyelid Lift + Neck Wrinkles!

I’ve been testing the NuFace Trinity ELE + Wrinkle Reducer Attachments for 6 weeks to see how effective they are at reducing wrinkles and lifting the eyelids!

I’ve been using the original NuFace Trinity (review) for almost a year and I LOVE it so I’m hoping for even more improvement with the attachments. The video includes demos of the attachments with Before & After pictures so you can see if they work!

I was pretty impressed with the results using the ELE on my eyelids — it definitely takes the “eyelid lift” effect to another level! And I’m happy with the improvement on my neck wrinkles since I can’t use Retin-A there. *Please note that the Red Light Wrinkle Reducer Attachment is not FDA cleared for use on the neck. Unfortunately, the User’s Guide doesn’t mention that, all it says is “Do not use on the neck if diagnosed with or suspect a thyroid problem.”

The results are temporary so they can only be maintained with continued use of the device and using all 3 attachments can be time-consuming so I don’t recommend it for people who won’t stick with it.

Hope you found the review and B/A pics helpful & informative! xo ~Angie

Buyer beware: After using my Nuface Trinity for about 2 years, the body just stopped holding the charge rendering it useless. They do offer a warranty but this expires after 1 year. After that, you are on your own. I foolishly purchased their FIX before Angie did a review (and I think never did, wisely), and it was a dud and I wasted $150.. I recently purchased the LED attachment for another $150 (but after positive reviews and a solid experience with another LED tool)…but as soon as I used it, that was when the Nuface charger stopped holding the charge, making that purchase an entire waste. Thankfully, Sephora will let me return that (so they say, I will try). But that’s a risk when you are investing a lot of money!

Hi Angie, do you own the Nu Face fix device and do you recommend it?

Is the wrinkle reducer attachment fragile?

And do you recommend CeraVe or Cetaphil as non-foaming cleanser?

TIA

  I have the NuFace Fix but I’m on the fence about it and need to test it out more. The wrinkel reducer isn’t fragile. I like CeraVe over Cetaphil.

Hi- I’m a new NuFace user and am a little confused on the gel. I feel like I’ve seen Angie use a Neutrogena hydro gel for the conductor? Could you pls explain what to look for in a conductor gel? I too am not the biggest fan of aloe….. is there a specific ingredient or lack of ingredient that needs to be in there? Thanks so much!

  Hi Sheila~ You can use pretty much anything to conduct the current including water but a gel makes it more comfortable to use. The only think that doesn’t conduct the current is oil so make sure you choose a product that’s oil free. xo ~angie

I really enjoy your posts and actually purchased the Nuface with attachments because of the posts. I must pass on one thing to look out for. I used the wrinkle attachment on the neck as you suggested. The next morning I woke up with a sore throat. I didn’t use it for a few days and tried again. Again, I woke up with a sore throat. Was it a coincidence or not??? I tried one more time on the neck and sure enough, another sore throat. The throat actually felt “burnt”. I contacted Nuface and they got back to me within 24 hours. They told me, under no circumstances to use it on the throat. It has not been FDA approved and they really do not know what could happen. I thought I should share this with you. Thanks for all the great posts!

  Hi Laura~ In the video I was reading from the Users Guide that came with the wrinkle reducer attachment and I said it’s not recommended for use on the front of the neck for people with thyroid problems. Based on the documentation that came with mine, I figured it was ok to use on my neck since I don’t have a thyroid problem. I just re-read the manual and it doesn’t say that the attachment isn’t FDA cleared for use on the neck anywhere. Thanks for letting us know that it’s not supposed to be used there, and I’m sorry you had that reaction to it. xo ~angie

Angie, I appreciate everyone of your reviews!! When ever I’m recommended a product, or just curious about something new, I always turn to you hoping you have already tried and reviewed it. Your honesty has made me feel confident in everything you recommend! Thank you, for being you!

Quick question:
Do you use the NuFace gel or the Up&Up Aloe gel? I’m confused! I want to try the aloe since it is more cost efficient, but I don’t want to waste my time if the gel is better.

  Hi Carol~ I’ve used the Up & Up gel in the past but sometimes it stings my eyes so I stopped using it and now I use the NuFace Gel. If I were you I’d try the Target gel first and see if it works for you. xo ~angie

Did you answer ChicagoAmy (Feb. 18, 2018) about where the leave on reactive gel falls in your morning product application lineup? I, too, am curious about when to apply my serums when using the leave-on gel.

Thank you!

  I hadn’t replied to ChicagoAmy, I get so many questions now that I can’t answer them all. Thanks for bringing it to my attention, I did answer her and here’s what I said:
  
  You describe the problems with the leave-on gel well. I wrestled with them when I first started using it. I tried rubbing in the gel but there was just too much of it to rub in and as you said, you can’t really put on serums after and you can’t put on serums before either and I much prefer the ingredients in my serums to the ingredients in the gel. What I ended up doing is removing the gel after. I wash my face first, and I don’t dry my face, I just leave it wet. I brush on the gel, use NuFace. Then instead of washing my face a 2nd time I splash with warm water and rub away the gel with fingers or a damp washcloth. Then I apply my serums etc. as usual. I feel like my skin has plenty of time to absorb the good ingredients from the gel while doing the NuFace routine so it’s not a total waste of the product.

Thanks Angie for sharing all your knowledge and testing. You are my new guru! I refer people to your Blog and YouTube channel. Even print off shopping list for people of your routine.
There is electric simulation for receding hair line for men. Can I use my NuFace on my thinning spots after I wash my hair? Maybe so or total too risky?
I do not hesitate buying any of your Holy Grails or close seconds. Love Chanel Foundation; thank you.

  Hi Gale~ Thanks so much for referring me & my routine to your friends! I’m happy you love the Chanel foundation too!! Unfortunately, I have no idea if it would be effective to use NuFace for receding hair. I don’t think there would be any danger or problems with it since I do use the NuFace around my hairline with water when I’m doing my forehead routine and it seems perfectly fine but I can’t say I noticed any hair growth. xo ~angie

Hi Angie,
It looks like your using Aloe Vera with the Nuface.
Why did you stop using just water? Did you find it was more effective with Aloe? Or some other reason?
Thanks!

Hi Angie

I’ve been using the NuFACE trinity for over a month now and not really seeing results. It seems to lift and tighten for a bit but doesn’t last long. I’ve been very consistent and follow the NuFACE app.Do you have any suggestions?

What do you use to remove your mascara as you can’t use anything with oil before using the Nuface?

  I use do a double cleanse with CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser and it removes mascara well, plus I use NuFace in the morning after I’ve washed my face again so even if I used an oil cleanser at night it wouldn’t affect the NuFace.

Hi Angie,
I ordered the Nuface and look forward to trying it out. At 53, I’ve finally decided to start a skin care routine. Thank you for your videos; I truly appreciate your methods of reviewing products.
Have a great day.

Hi Angie,
I just received my nuface mini in the mail. I am going to use it on my new “addition” of slight jowls and drooping eyelids on my 47yr old slim face.
I plan to use it almost every night and with the aloe gel you recommended.
Fingers crossed!

You should be getting commissions from NuFace, imho! I bought one, based on your recommendation, a refurbished one straight from the NuFace site, and I love it, too! I love what this has done for your “hoods”, which you normally disguise so well.

Thank you for your reviews, you have helped me feel like skin care is so worth it, and I don’t have to give up <3

Hi Angie,
I love your Blog/You Tube Chanel, you always put a lot of thought in your videos.
Short question regarding the Nu Face and Botox Use. I am thinking about getting a Nu Face due to your review because I have some Eye lid hooding, I was wondering did you use the Nu Face right after the Botox and does it work as the Muscle is paralysed or is that interfering with each other?
Thanks a lot,
Sabine

  Hi Sabine~ Last June I got botox and was using the NuFace daily. There didn’t seem to be any difference in the performance of either. Best, Angie

Thanks for the review! You’re fantastic. I’m sold on the ELE. I just started with the Trinity and have been impressed by the results.

Question about the leave-on primer. I love it. I tried aloe vera gel to see if worked as well since it is much less expensive. It dried up quickly and my skin really reddened from it. So I’m going to stick with the NuFace leave on. Do you apply makeup over the leave-on primer? Where/how do you fit it in with serum use? Seems you shouldn’t have serums on when using the NuFace, but you can’t put them on over top of the primer after… Thoughts appreciated.

    I’m curious why you do your NiFace in the morning instead of at night? Does it matter?
    
    Could I apply this theory/routine at night? Wash with CeraVe then before I moisturize for the night use the gel and NuFace, then rinse off the excess gel and do my nightly routine?
