The Drunk Elephant Difference

We are committed to using only ingredients that either directly benefit the health of the skin or support the integrity of our formulations. We never take into account whether something is synthetic or natural. instead choosing ingredients based on biocompatibility. That’s why we 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. But what we leave out of our products is just as important as what we put into them. so you will never find what we call the Suspicious 6??(essential oils. drying alcohols. silicones. chemical sunscreens. fragrances/dyes. SLS) in our line. We believe that these six ubiquitous ingredients are at the root of almost every skin issue. and when they’re removed entirely from your routine—that is. when you take a Drunk Break™—skin can reset and return to its healthiest. most balanced state. This ingredient-elimination diet benefits all skin types and inspired the #barewithus🐘 Instagram movement. a collection of bare-faced selfies that chronicles the Drunk Elephant journeys of people who have found not only healthier skin but more importantly. healthier self-confidence.
