Product Information

The Drunk Elephant products that contain peptides include Protini Polypeptide Cream, C Tango Multivitamin Eye Cream, and A Passioni Retinol Cream. To get the most out of this salicylic acid mask, we recommend starting slow and giving your other potent treatments a break. Drunk Elephant takes a “clean clinical” approach to skin care. Put another way, “a product is only as good as its worst ingredient.” Clean clinical means a commitment to only using ingredients that directly benefit the skin’s health or support the integrity and effectiveness of the formulations. If you’re looking to try all the a brand has to offer, starting out with one of their starter sets is one of the easiest and most cost effective methods out there, even for more luxury or premium skincare brands. One of the most popular sets on the market today is the Drunk Elephant The Littles collection. This small pouch contains all of the most well loved products from the Drunk Elephant range including the Beste No.9 Jelly Cleanser, the C-Firma Day Serum, the B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Serum, the T.L.C. Framboos Glycolic Night Serum, the Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil, the Lala Retro Whipped Cream, the Umbra Sheer Physical Daily Defense SPF 30 and the Shaba Complex Eye Serum, all in converient, easy to use travel sizes. This product can be mixed and matched and combined together to create a tailored daytime and nighttime skin care routine based on your central skincare concerns. For example, if you may concern is brightening and radiance boosting, you could try the C-Firma Day Serum as part of your morning routine and the T.L.C. Framboos Glycolic Night Serum.

Use Babyfacial™ once weekly. Warm 3-5 pumps between your hands to thin out the product. Gently pat an even layer onto clean, dry skin. Leave on for 20 minutes. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and pat dry. Follow immediately with Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil for best results. Slight tingling may be experienced. Matcha (Green Tea Leaf), Milk Thistle and Apple Extracts: With potent antioxidant and anti-pollution properties, these extracts help condition and soothe skin. Drunk Elephant Slaai Makeup-Melting Butter Cleanser is a luxurious cleansing balm that’s activated by water, turning it into a milk that melts away all traces of dirt, makeup, and sunscreen from skin, even water-resistant formulations. The formula contains what the brand calls a “nourishing fruit salad blend”, 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). Is The Drunk Elephant Retinol Cream Right For You? Among Drunk Elephant’s (now pretty large) range of products, this oil stands out as something of a flagship- since it’s the myth that elephants get sozzled after eating fruit from the Marula tree that gives the company its name.

Particularly well-suited to anyone who wants to add a highly moisturising step to their winter routine, this will also work well for those faced with pollution or UV on a regular basis who wants a little extra antioxidant protection.

While collagen is necessary for maintaining youthful-looking skin, the collagen protein is too large to absorb into the skin topically. That’s why applying skin care products that contain collagen won’t provide the anti-aging benefits you’re looking for. 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. While Drunk Elephant originally started as a skin-care brand, the company has since expanded its product line into other categories — most recently, hair care. As always, you can rest assured that each product is designed to keep your skin (and now hair) healthy, nourished, and radiant, thanks to the innovative vitamin-, antioxidant-, and mineral-infused formulas that often feature some of the most advanced, dermatologist-recommended ingredients, like retinol, various hydroxy acids, and peptides. While Drunk Elephant’s Virgin Marula Oil is genuinely a lovely product, it is also (sadly) a pretty pricey one. The company says that this is because their own extraction process yields the purest, highest quality results- and is consequently also the most expensive. No time to go see your esthetician for a facial? Then it may be time to add the Drunk Elephant Baby Facial into your routine. This at-home facial is recommended to be used weekly to smooth texture while minimizing the look of pores, fine lines, and wrinkles. The formula features high concentrations of the exfoliating alpha and beta hydroxy acids (25% AHA and 2% BHA).Tran D, Townley JP, Barnes TM, Greive KA.

Containing just one ingredient- sclerocarya birrea seed oil (or Marula oil as it’s most commonly known)- this oil is high in antioxidants (to protect skin against free radical damage), as well as amino acids and essential fatty acids (omegas 3, 6 and 9 to help repair and protect the skin’s moisture barrier).

Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream contains 9 signal peptides, which are peptides that signal cells in the skin called fibroblasts to produce more collagen. Remember, more collagen equals firmer, tighter skin. The formula also includes pygmy waterlily extract, which helps to moisturize and soothe the skin thanks to its rich source of antioxidants and nutrients. On my own skin, the result of all that goodness is the sort of yoga glow my dreams are made of- especially when mixed with a pump of D-Bronzi Anti-Pollution Sunshine Drops, the brand’s tinted antioxidant serum. This Drunk Elephant vitamin C serum includes 15% pure vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) combined with 0.5% ferulic acid and 1% vitamin E. These antioxidants work synergistically to protect your skin from environmental free radicals. Plus, the serum also includes pumpkin ferment and pomegranate, which work together to enzymatically dissolve dead surface skin cells, minimizing the appearance of pores and reviving dull, tired-looking skin. Drunk Elephant Baby Facial As you age, your body’s production of collagen and elastin slows down. These two proteins are responsible for your skin’s structural support. As a result, the skin loses its natural plumpness and smoothness. Treat the complexion to a touch of luxury with the Drunk Elephant Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil, a calming and restorative skincare treatment made from clean, natural extracts.Shoko T, Maharaj VJ, Naidoo D, et al.

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.
