Bella Hadid’s 5-Minute ‘Face Lift’ Tool

A red carpet glow might seem like celebrity sorcery, but Bella Hadid just let us in on a secret: it’s all down to a five-minute microcurrent massage.

In her latest Vogue Beauty Secrets video, the supermodel – now blonde and Cannes-ready – revealed she swears by the NuFace Trinity, a handheld device that’s become a cult favourite in the world of at-home beauty tech. Described by many (and now Bella too) as the “five-minute facelift,” this tool promises lifted cheekbones, sculpted jawlines, and a boost in circulation – all without leaving the bathroom.

“It feels like my face is lifting up and I’m getting blood circulation to my skin,” Bella explains as she glides the device across her face. “I just like it. It stimulates my face before we start base.” For her, it’s not just about looking snatched – the device also helps counter the skin effects of her ongoing immune issues, which sometimes disrupt lymphatic drainage.

So, how does it actually work? The NuFace Trinity uses low-level electrical currents (called microcurrents) to stimulate the muscles beneath the skin, improving tone and contour over time. Think of it as Pilates for your face – but quicker, and no mat required.

Clinically proven and celeb-endorsed (Margot Robbie’s a fan too), the TRINITY+ version even comes with a Boost Button that delivers 25% more power – ideal for targeting cheekbones or a tired jawline before a night out. Add to that a red light attachment for wrinkles and optional extras for lips and eyes, and you’ve got an entire facial studio in your palm.

Of course, it’s not plug-and-play – you do need to apply a conductive gel or serum before use to help the currents glide over the skin and do their thing. Skip it, and you’re in for a less-than-pleasant zapping experience.

While you can see subtle lifting in five minutes, the real magic happens with consistency. The brand recommends daily use for the first two months, then dropping down to two or three times a week to maintain those results.

Whether you’re heading to a premiere or just want your cheekbones to pop on Zoom, NuFace is one of the few gadgets living up to the hype. Bella-approved, clinically backed, and undeniably satisfying, it’s proof that beauty tech has officially entered its main character era.
