1. Tiptoe In
Trinny London is a new company for me but I can certainly remember Trinny as a superb clothes expert from her numerous TV shows, however I didn’t realise that she is so knowledgeable and ground-breaking with her make-up range. What a superb range this is, I found the products I tested were impressive.
If you are wanting your skin to look sensational, then you must try Tiptoe In, it’s a PHA exfoliant. This product has an active, but kind-to-skin PHA (poly-hydroxy acid) formulation and is the perfect choice for those looking for a radiant, hydrated complexion. I think you’ll find that this clever complex is your first step into the wonderful world of liquid exfoliation. I found this to be an everyday game-changer and a further bonus is that this is also refillable and I so appreciate refillables. I just wish more companies made those changes.
My goal, which I’ve now achieved with Tiptoe In, was to find a cleanser that made my skin look radiant, a product that was able to exfoliate my skin and lose the dullness and dehydration that I was noticing. This cleanser is suitable for all skin types, even if you have sensitive skin.
Trinny suggests your routine steps should be:
AM cleanse/exfoliate/serum/moisturise/SPF
PM cleanse/exfoliate/serum/moisturise
I couldn’t believe how this liquid exfoliant worked so quickly. Tiptoe In re-surfaced, decongested and sloshed away all the dead skin cells leaving my skin looking glowing and feeling balanced. All the company’s formulations are created to be kind to your skin, cleverly exfoliating it and leaving your skin looking radiant.
How to use:
- Apply two pumps to a clean face, neck and décolleté, avoiding your eye area. This exfoliant is a leave on, just allow a little time for the formula to fully absorb before applying the next steps in your routine, your serum and moisturiser.
- Use twice a week and build up to daily use.

2. Better Off
This is an AHA/PHA gel cleanser. An exfoliating, conditioning gel that allows you to go just a little deeper with your cleansing routine. It has an active, kind-to-skin formula that works to thoroughly clean, but does not strip your skin. By gently exfoliating it cleverly helps to reveal your skin’s natural glow. Plus it is another refillable from Trinny – what a bonus!
How to use:
Just take a few moments for yourself and massage two pumps onto your damp face and neck, but avoiding your eye area, then rinse off with warm water. Trinny’s suggestion is for you to double cleanse your skin if you have been wearing makeup and/or SPF, perhaps by trying her Be Your Best Enzyme Balm Cleanser, a first for satisfyingly clean, nourished skin.
So if you are looking for clear, glowing skin this is one for you to try. It works for all skin types, including normal to oily. Better Off targets excess oil and clogged pores, whilst it gentle exfoliates your skin so it is a product that lots of people will find useful.

3. Lash2Brow from Trinny London
Innovative is the only way to describe this product and I’m impressed that Trinny really has really done her homework creating this Lash2Brow. Why haven’t other companies created a product like this before? It’s dual-ended, a mascara and a tinted brow gel power duo, which does make life easier doesn’t it? I’ve certainly not seen a product like this before and I love it! It transforms your lashes and brows in literally the blink of an eye. Be assured that once you try lash2brow, you’ll feel like me that this is one product you cannot live without it. The mascara is black and then there a five shades for brows, so you can easily get a good match for your eyebrow colour.
How to use:
Step 1: Coat your upper lashes from root to tip, then use the tip of the brush to apply the mascara to your lower lashes. For added impact, apply a second coat.
Step 2: Begin by brushing the wand backwards through your brows to add volume and coat every single hair. Then brush the wand up and along your brows to give a more lifted effect.
Here is what Trinny has to say about Lash2Brow:
A true innovation
Our dual-ended Lash2Brow is a true beauty first, effortlessly enhancing eyes to make your routine simpler (and makeup bag lighter). Infused with organic chestnut extract, our mascara and brow gel formulas glide on smoothly, helping to condition your lashes and brows so they feel as healthy as they look. As easy on the eyes as it is to take off, our mascara stays put until you’re ready to remove it – just wash away with your favourite cleanser.
Your wide-awake essential
The cornerstone of your makeup routine, it only takes a few seconds for Lash2Brow to create a wide-awake look. The intense black pigments in our mascara amplify the colour payoff while the formula elongates lashes for instant impact. Our brow gel defines and builds natural-looking colour for well-shaped arches that frame your face.
Stroke of genius
Designed to distribute the perfect amount of mascara, the flexible slim bristles on our cone-shaped brush reach every single eyelash, building impressive length and volume from the inner to the outer corners. The pointed tip gives you enough control to define your lower lashes with ease.
Our brow gel’s micro-precision brush is small and perfectly formed – whether you’re compensating for a little ‘90s overplucking or taming bushy brows, Lash2Brow shapes and grooms with total precision.
Apply Lash2Brow with BFF Eye serum-concealer for confidence-boosting coverage and fresh, wide-awake eyes.

Lip Treat
It took Trinny and her team three years to make Lip Treat, which they class as their dream lip balm and I must say I have to agree. My lips are always dry, but this soft and hydrating, buttery treat is never sticky and really is a true treat. It has been formulated with shea butter, jojoba and sun flower oils that nourish your lips whilst locking them in moisture. Its water-free formula acts as a protective barrier to keep your lips moisturised. It is also enriched with hyaluronic acid to pump and hydrate your lips.
How to apply:
- Just as soothing solo as it is on top of Lip2Cheek shades for added moisture and a softly glowy sheen.
