DRUNK ELEPHANT // WHAT IS AND ISN'T WORTH YOUR MONEY
EVERYONE RAVES ABOUT DRUNK ELEPHANT BUT IS IT REALLY WORTH THE HYPE? HONESTLY… YES. WHICH IS UNFORTUNATE BECAUSE IT IS A BIT PRICEY BUT YOU DO GET A LOT OF PRODUCT IN EACH BOTTLE, IT IS NATURAL AND NONTOXIC, AND THE COMPANY IS FOUNDED BY AN AMAZING WOMAN!
I ALSO LOVE THAT YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE A SKIN CARE GURU TO USE THEIR PRODUCTS. THEY DON’T HAVE A SPECIFIC ORDER YOU NEED TO FOLLOW WITH THEIR PRODUCTS, INSTEAD THEY RECOMMEND THAT YOU MAKE A ‘SMOOTHIE’ - WHERE YOU MIX ALL OF THE PRODUCTS TOGETHER AND APPLY THEM TO YOUR FACE ALTOGETHER. THAT IS A SKINCARE DREAM COME TRUE TO ME!!
BELOW I WILL BREAK DOWN WHICH PRODUCTS I THINK ARE THE BEST FROM THEIR LINE AND 100 PERCENT WORTH THE HYPE.
IF YOU HAVE NEVER TRIED THEIR PRODUCTS, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TRYING ‘THE LITTLES’ WHICH IS ALMOST ALL OF THEIR PRODUCTS IN MINI FORM SO YOU CAN TRY THEM ALL OUT AND SEE WHICH ONES YOU LIKE BEFORE COMMITTING TO THE BIG BOTTLES!
CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT
THESE ARE THEIR PRODUCTS THAT I ABSOLUTELY SWEAR BY
This is my go-to daily sunscreen. It isn’t heavy but works amazing. You can layer it with their other products and also add makeup and you don’t feel caked at all. Truly great coverage!
If you have acne prone skin - this is for you! Their retinol helps diminish the look of fine lines, wrinkles, and sun damage as well as helps clear up blemishes.
I can’t rave enough about their littles! I love that they offer all of their products in minis. I use these when I travel - they are so cute!! But it is also a great way to introduce yourself to their products and decide which ones you want to invest in. High reward with minimal commitment.
If you only buy one product, this is the one you should buy! I use this once a week and it makes a HUGE difference on my skin! This mask resurfaces your skin to reveal greater clarity, improved skin texture and tone, and a more youthful appearance literally after only one use. This is one of the only masks I have ever used that I can see a difference after one use and right away!
If a Vitamin C serum isn’t apart of your daily skincare routine, you need to change that immediately. VItamin C is amazing for minimizing scars and dark spots and Drunk Elephant’s is a potent vitamin C day serum packed with antioxidants, nutrients, and fruit enzymes to firm and brighten skin’s appearance and improve the signs of photoaging. I am obsessed with this product!!
These drops are amazing especially during winter when your skin is majorly lacking in Vitamin D. I add a few drops to my foundation for a natural looking sunkissed glow. I love that this serum defends against pollution and environmental stressors, and delivers a bronzy glow—like sunshine in a bottle, without the damaging effects.
YOU SHOULD TRY IT!
THESE PRODUCTS ARE AMAZING AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND
I really love this eye cream! It is super creamy and light. I put on before bed and in the morning. I think it does a good job brightening under my eyes!
This facial oil is rich in critical antioxidants and omega 6 and 9. The Virgin Marula Antioxidant Oil Face Oil moisturizes, nurtures, and balances while restoring a youthful glow. I love how yummy this oil is and how it feels on my face! I apply this before I use my Gua Sha tool for an easy glide.
I am obsessed with this night serum. I apply every single night and I love how it makes my face feel! An AHA/BHA night serum that resurfaces congested skin by lifting away dead skin cells to improve skin tone, texture, fine lines, wrinkles, and pores.
This face cream feels like a cloud! It is super creamy and makes your skin feel silky and smooth! A protein moisturizer that combines signal peptides, growth factors, amino acids, and pygmy waterlily to improve the look of skin’s tone, texture, and firmness.
NOT WORTH THE HYPE
YOU CAN LIVE WITHOUT THESE
I currently am using this as my daily and nightly cleanser and I do really like it however if you currently have a cleanser that you like, you can skip purchasing this one. If you are in the market for a new cleanser, I do really like this one!
A cooling, hydrating overnight mask that plumps with an electrolyte cocktail while supporting the skin’s natural acid mantle. I have been using it nightly but haven’t really noticed a significant difference.
This facial cream is super heavy and just not as good as the Protini Polypeptide Moisturizer.
I never really notice a difference whether or not I use this product and I would recommend the face cream before purchasing this!
