If there was ever a woman we'd take skincare advice from, it's Trinny - after the success of her amazing makeup line, Trinny London

She’s the TV legend we all know and love, and after the success of her incredible makeup line, Trinny Woodall has launched a skincare tool, The Plump Up Microneedle - and it’s made her skin ‘look so much firmer and smoother’.

Priced at £44, with a replacement head for £25 and all important cleaning spray for £8, Trinny, who’s the founder and CEO of Trinny London said “My skin always looks its best the morning after I’ve done microneedling. It improves my skin texture like nothing else, helps my skincare products penetrate further and over time, it’s made my skin look so much firmer and smoother. You really will see the difference…”

After years of research and development, the at-home micro needling tool will help bridge the gap between those ‘tweakments’ - which can be pricey, and your day-to-day skincare. Known as a ‘cheerleader’ for the skin’s natural collagen levels, the microneedle device is basically a little shortcut to healthy, good-quality skin that springs back. Best of all? There’s no downtime needed or unsightly bruising - like some can see after getting botox treatments.

So why should we microneedle? Well aside from helping skincare penetrate those levels of our skin, it can also help improve and reduce fine lines, pores and wrinkles in as little as 28 days - so you can upgrade your skincare routine from the comfort of your home, and a lot less than visiting your local Aesthetician for regular botox top-ups.

This little device has 540 stainless steel, 0.5mm needles that help your skincare products penetrate further

Containing 540 stainless steel, 0.5mm needles, the ergonomic handle will help you to glide the microneedle effortless across the skin. All you need to do is use it three times a week for the best results - but gently! At the end of the day, if you use the product wrong, you could cause some damage to your skin - so never press too hard, and gently roll The Plump Up Microneedle across your forehead, chin, cheeks and around the corners of the eye area. And it’s really important to replace the cap, keep it clean and replace the head every month to make sure you aren’t letting any bacteria build up and implementing infections.

Kate Middleton swears by £19.99 rosehip oil that helps 'reduce wrinkles & scars'

Every microneedle comes with a sachet of Trinny’s Plump Up Peptide HA Serum, priced from £55, which will help over time, make your skin look firmer, plumper and smoother too - though once this runs out, you could team it with any hyaluronic serum, to really hydrate the skin.

Just like anything Trinny London launches, we are preparing ourselves for this to sell out fast - I mean just look at Trinny’s skin! So should that happen, we’ve found some alternatives that are similar. Starting with the FaceGym Faceshot Electric Microneedling Device - priced at £215. This simple, safe and seriously effective tool offers 'glow-giving results' that are almost as good as a trip into the FaceGym salon itself - and if you've never been, you really should!

The Teresa Tarmey Microneedling Kit is pioneering and comprehensive - designed to help rejuvenate and tighten the skin. Priced at £220, it contains a peptide treatment that is a high performance blend of peptide complex, glycerine, niacinamide, mulberry extract plus Vitamin C. As for the results? Imagine rejuvenated, healthy skin with a smoother, more youthful appearance.

We also love the BeautyBio Rejuvenating Scalp + Fuller Hair Therapy for rejuvenating and stimulating hair growth. This is the world’s first patented, do-it-yourself microneedling tool, specifically for hair to stimulate your follicles and lessen irritation for a healthy head of hair (with fewer flakes too).
