It’s safe to say that pretty much every beauty lover knows about Trinny’s bestselling makeup brand at this point. The foolproof, works-for-everyone makeup products have made waves for being simple but effective. So, when the brand launched skincare products, it majorly piqued my interest.
I was first introduced to the brand back in 2022 when it launched with a pair of face washes. The cleansers are designed to be used together for a double cleanse, but equally can be used separately depending on need—there’s an oil-based balm which suits dry skin and an acid-based exfoliating gel for oilier skin types. It’s this customisable, personalised approach that Trinny totally nailed with her makeup brand launch and that makes it equally effortless to figure out a skincare routine that works for you.
For example, there are three types of exfoliant, each designed to address different concerns, and a duo of moisturisers (light and rich) which can be paired for day and night or chosen per skin type (oily or dry). In fact, it’s so foolproof to build a routine and figure out which products will work for you that even my mum—who has an incredibly low-maintenance approach to beauty—finds it easy to stick to her routine. She currently has a full line-up of Trinny skincare on her bathroom shelf and her skin has never looked better for it.
Now with 15 products across eight categories, plus minis, sets, and refills (all of the products are refillable), there’s something for every skin type and concern. Furthermore, the products are packed with active and advanced skincare ingredients which help to deliver impressive results—particularly for signs of skin ageing in mature skin, like loose skin, pigmentation, fine lines, and wrinkles.

The Best Trinny London Skincare Products:
1. Trinny London Better Off AHA/PHA Gel Cleanser
Best for: Congested skin
Key ingredients: Quillaja, lactic acid, malic acid, lactobionic acid, inulin
Most cleansers don’t do much by way of treating skin, but this one is packed with active ingredients that work hard to shift the buildup of dead skin, excess oil, sweat, and makeup that accumulates on our skin. Expect skin to feel smoother and look brighter after use—I find it’s perfect for a second cleanse in the evening.
Against
- Not suitable for sensitive skin
2. Trinny London Plump Up Peptide + HA Serum
Trinny London
Plump Up Peptide + HA Serum
Best for: Dehydrated skin
Key ingredients: Hexapeptide-9, oligopeptide-1, hyaluronic acid
Even though this serum is incredibly lightweight and fast to absorb, you’ll be surprised by just how much moisture it can deliver—my skin feels instantly plumped and quenched when I’ve applied it. The star ingredient is hyaluronic acid, which works by drawing moisture deep into the skin.
For
- Instantly rehydrates skin
3. Trinny London Bounce Back Intense Peptide Moisturiser
Trinny London
Bounce Back Intense Peptide Moisturiser
Best for: Daytime hydration
Key ingredients: Peptides, hyaluronic acid, squalane, oat lipids, phytophingosine, beta-glucan
Far more than ‘just a moisturiser’, this formula is boosted with peptides to increase elasticity and firmness, phytophingosine to prevent collagen breakdown, and beta-glucan to reduce skin stress. It’s light in texture and I love that it delivers an impressive instant glow to my skin.
Against
- May not be moisturising enough for very dry skin
4. Trinny London See The Light Moisturiser SPF50+
Trinny London
See the Light
Best for: Daily sun protection
Key ingredients: Raspberry leaf extract, camellia leaf extract
This is my favourite product from the range. The texture is incredibly light and fresh, so it feels silky and soothing when you apply it—and also really hydrating. It utilises Korean UVA filters with an impressive PA++++ rating, UVB filters for top tier SPF 50+ protection and antioxidants to protect against pollution.
For
- Suitable for all skin tones
Against
- Fragranced formula may not be suitable for very sensitive skin
5. Trinny London Elevator Photo-Peptide Concentrate
Trinny London
The Elevator
Best for: Signs of ageing on the neck
Key ingredients: Glycerin, jojoba, peptides
Old-school neck creams were essentially just thick-textured moisturisers, but this souped-up formula takes things to a whole new level. Credit lies with a supercharged peptide complex which works to smooth, firm and restructure skin for a visibly lifted and tightened effect. It’s easy to see why this is a bestseller for the brand—plus, it’s such a treat to massage into skin at the end of the day.
Against
- May not be suitable for very sensitive skin
6. Trinny London Overnight Clarity Retinal/Niacinamide Serum
Trinny London
Overnight Clarity
Best for: Uneven tone and texture
Key ingredients: Niacinamide, NAD+, retinal, azelaic acid
If, like me, your skin is on the breakout-prone or congested side, reach for this. It targets texture, pigmentation, and redness on the top layer of the skin with brightening azelaic acid and skin-renewing retinal to speed up the skin’s process of cell renewal.
For
- Helps with congested skin and breakouts
Against
- May stain pillowcases if used at night
7. Trinny London Overnight Sensation Retinal Serum
Trinny London
Overnight Sensation
Best for: Signs of skin ageing
Key ingredients: Retinal, granactive retinoid, squalane, fatty acids
When a product garners rave reviews like this one does, you know there must be something special about it. The formula contains a next-generation granactive retinoid, a combination of nourishing hydrators, and lifting, firming ferments. My mum has been using this religiously and her skin is noticeably smoother, brighter, and more youthful in appearance.
