Nuface mini and Nuface primer

12 replies

I've bought one of these, the jury is still out. I think that the primer gel is irritating me a bit though. Not to mention it is SO expensive. Those of you with a NuFace, do you know if anything else can be used instead of the gel primer? I know some suggest aloe Vera gel but I always react badly to any aloe Vera gel I've tried.

Also, I follow the 15 minute routine but it only takes me about 5 so I'm not sure I'm using the bloody thing right anyway! So any Nuface tips also welcome :-)

I have the mini and I use the big tubs of collagen gel from Amazon. Tbh I am not sure it makes any difference. I keep using it just on the chance it might.

Collagen gel!!!! See, I wouldn't even have known what to look up. Thank you! Yeah, I'm not sure if it's doing anything but I've only had it a couple of weeks...

I would love some feed back. I bought the Trinity a couple of weeks ago with the extra lip and eye part. It was hugely expensive and I did enquire on hear but only one person responded

There’s another thread a bit further down where I have my experience and posted a pic of one of my eyes after 2 months. I’m using snail muchin atm but sometimes I just used a think layer of my serum with water sprayed over.

I have a Rio one but it's the same thing. I use collagen gel or pure aloe which I buy in a big tub cheaply from Ebay, both work fine.

Have you noticed any difference @LesLavandes ? What routines are you using? I hardly take any time at all so probably not doing it right. I also find it REALLY nippy on my forehead. And do you do it at night or in the morning?

@whitershadeofpale found your thread! The pic looks good. Is that just from using it on your forehead or are you going above the eye?

I place it just below my brow, on the bone and also pull up and out from my temples, as well as forehead. It shouldn’t feel nippy unless you don’t have enough conductor. I find my gel dries out before I get there sometimes so you can just spray it with a little hydrating mist or just water as you go along.

I use it and love it

Has anyone found it good for jowls? i have had 2 before and convinced they did nothing, but i am wondering now as jowls have got worse since stopping using it, but might just be age,and coincidence

ChardonnaysPetDragon · 01/05/2020 12:50

I use it with my Hada Labo hyaluronic acid lotion.

I’m a bit sporadic using the actual NuFace but I bought a pump bottle of generic gel (like they’d use for an ultrasound) from amazon.
