As for the key ingredients used in Drunk Elephant products, we noticed that this brand utilizes a wide variety of unique ingredients that you typically won’t find other skin care brands using, such as pineapple ceramide, acai fruit oil, and cantaloupe fruit extract, just to name a few. They also include tried-and-true ingredients in their formulations, such as vitamin C, peptides, and retinol, just to name a few. A Glamour editor described the Drunk Elephant Baby Facial in this way: “Despite the hefty price tag, this formula is a facial in a bottle and it lasts a while” and a writer for the Zoe Report was “floored” by the Baby Facial. “A 20-minute at-home facial achieved what my entire skin care regime hadn’t before.” that is, or may reasonably be considered to be submitted in extreme volumes and as such be deemed as ‘spam’;

One thing we really love about Drunk Elephant is that they don’t obsess about creating “natural” formulations. Natural does not always equal better, just like synthetic does not always equal toxic. For example, one review says, “ This is my favorite moisturizer I’ve ever used. I’ve been using Protini for about 2 years and have found it to be light enough for summer use, when my skin is oily, but still nourishing enough to keep away winter dryness.” Gentle but effective dose of 0.1% vegan retinol, 3% antioxidant-rich caffeine, and copper peptides that targets fine lines and wrinkles and reduces puffiness for a rested, more youthful appearance. Vitamin C also helps fade dark spots, evens out skin tone, and increases radiance. As if that wasn’t enough, research suggests that when vitamin C is applied to the skin, it significantly reverses aging-related structural changes by influencing collagen and elastin synthesis.Retinol: Retinol is one of the most well-researched ingredients in skincare, capable of bringing balance to any skin concern. At a gentle 0.1% concentration, our pure form of vegan retinol can help improve the look of fine lines and wrinkles around the eye area, as well as ward off the free radical damage done by daily exposure to UV rays, pollution, and other environmental stressors. that violates any law, statute, ordinance or regulation (including, but not limited to, those governing export control, consumer protection, unfair competition, anti-discrimination or false advertising); Peptide Blend: Eight peptides with the power to rebuild, strengthen, and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Drunk Elephant E-Rase Milki Micellar Water is formulated to thoroughly and gently remove makeup, dirt, pollution, and bacteria from the face and eye area without sensitization, irritation, or stripping the skin’s acid mantle. It has a milky texture due to the combination of moisturizing ceramides, plant oils, and vitamin E. The formula features a “micellar cleansing blend”, which is a mix of gentle surfactants and emollients that help to capture and wash away dirt, pollution, and other impurities. Drunk Elephant E-Rase Milki Micellar Water also helps to replenish the skin barrier due to ceramides AP, NP, and EOP. Derived from plant sources, these ceramides are identical to the wax-like moisturizing substance that occurs naturally in skin. Ceramides strengthen the skin barrier, thereby helping to soothe and maintain the moisture balance of skin while protecting against water loss. Lastly, Drunk Elephant E-Rase Milki Micellar Water contains a blend of unique botanical oils, including marula, mongongo, baobab, and passionfruit oil. It’s lightweight gel-cream texture makes Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream a good option for all skin types — even those with acne-prone skin — since the formula is non-comedogenic (won’t clog your pores). However, we noticed that this cream doesn’t absorb very fast. But give it time because once it absorbs, your skin will feel hydrated and supple without any greasy residue. Drunk Elephant C Firma Day Serum Drunk Elephant Slaai Makeup-Melting Butter Cleanser is a cleansing balm that is said to melt all traces of dirt, makeup, and sunscreen from skin, even water-resistant formulations. It is gentle enough to be used around the eye area and is free of PEGs, fragrance, silicones, and essential oils. It must be applied to a dry face with dry hands to begin melting impurities away. Adding water activates Slaai™ into a milk that rinses away cleanly, leaving behind a dewy glow. One of the key components of the Drunk Elephant Slaai Makeup-Melting Butter Cleanser is the “nourishing fruit salad blend”, which is a mix of non-fragrant soothing fruit extracts (blueberry, kiwi, and strawberry) and replenishing fruit oils (cranberry seed oil, acai fruit oil, and watermelon seed oil) that work together to help comfort and moisturize the skin.So rather than choosing ingredients based on whether they are natural or synthetic, the brand chooses ingredients based on their biocompatibility. Biocompatibility means they focus on healthy pH levels, formulations the skin recognizes, small molecular structure that’s easily absorbed, and effective active ingredients that also support and maintain the skin’s acid mantle. Drunk Elephant uses an assortment of moisturizing agents in their products, which will help prevent your skin from looking dry. Marula oil is one example, and another is polypeptides. Drunk Elephant products should note which are to be used specifically for moisturizing. It’s in Drunk Elephant C Firma Day Serum, along with additional antioxidants like ferulic acid and vitamin E.

The formula truly contains everything your skin needs to stay healthy and youthful. One reviewer even said this Drunk Elephant eye cream “Took a few years off my under eye area”. Drunk Elephant Beste No. 9 Jelly CleanserThe original formula was good, but this new and improved one is great. My eyes didn't suffer from any redness or irritation, and while I can't say for sure if it helps with fine lines (thanks, Botox), I can say it made my skin feel tight and firm and even seemed to reduce puffiness. I especially love putting this on right when I wake up and have found it layers well under makeup. We’ve been hearing for years that Vitamin C is the best anti-aging ingredient. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that protects the skin from free radicals, the unstable molecules that contribute to the formation of premature wrinkles and fine lines on the skin. Decide on your goal before you fork out and keep a close eye on the ingredients, too. Choose a serum that contains hyaluronic acid, for example, and its hydrating properties can give a tired under-eye area a much-needed boost with regular use.
