I love the new transitions & I feel like you’ve grown so much since I started watching you! You are just such a great speaker and the aesthetics are always on point 🥰 Hoping you get to 100k by Christmas!!! 🤞🏻
I don’t get why drunk elephant is sooo expensive 😭😭
They have a high status so they can get away with it.
What are you comparing it to?
You can have the smaller sets those are normally cheaper 💁♀️
Yeah I don’t get it either apparently it’s not even good
Because if people spend more money they think they will get a better product. It’s easy
Everyone is loving the jelly cleanser.. so I brought the jelly cleanser... I'm now engaged with the jelly cleanser ❤❤❤❤
MICHEL! Thank you so much for reviewing DE! I have definitely had a major crush on them (from a distance lol) but haven't had the guts to buy their products because I wasn't sure which were worth it. My skin is more on the dry side, so I'm always thankful when you review skincare products cause it helps me figure out what new things I should try :)
You’ll get addicted to their products!! I started by buying their vitamin c and some other serums and creams and a body lotion, now I’m omw to buy their deodorant and their body cleanser
You’re so close to 100K! I love Drunk Elephant but it can be pricy. My best friend gave me her scalp scrub from them when I was stuck in quarantine and I LOVE it. My hair looks so much better.
My favourites from drunk elephant include:
Jelly cleanser
peptide lotion
Melting butter
Retinol cream
I confess I'm a DE addict, the Beste No. 9 cleanser started it all. Much of the price comes from the airless pump packaging that extends the life of most products. I ask for the expensive products for every gift from family and friends, and buy the cheaper stuff myself. Ironically I hate the sunscreen and had to switch to SuperGoop ZincScreen. Thanks for the honest review! It was an enjoyable video.
Oh this is great timing, I’ve been considering a lot of these as a “gift to me”. Thanks for the honesty!
Great review Michel! One of the most honest youtubers ❤
Love your honesty!
yay we love unsponsored videos!
I went and bought the Drunk Elephant sample kit from Sophia.. kinda pricey $90 but a little bit goes along way! I absolutely love these products!! I have tried so many products for break outs and dry, wrinkly skin and by far those have cleared up my skin and smoothed it out! Thank you for the review. I love to try the sample sizes first so wasting money!
With my experience with DE, the products are truly amazing and help your skin so much. One of the main goals DE advertises is managing and balancing the PH in your skin. With that being said, once you stop using all the products at once your skin, like mine, could take a huge toll. My advice- if you can continue to use DE in the future do it! if not, slowly weed out products one by one so your skin's PH is not completely shocked which will result in huge breakouts! Love your videos!!
I absolutely love the jelly cleanser and the protein cream!!! I switched over to more locally made/natural skincare products so I don't buy these anymore. But if I had to pick any brand, these two items from Drunk Elephant have worked so well for me (I have really sensitive skin)!!!
Me too! I saved up for a bit to get the cleanser a moisturizer and 3 serums and even though the price, they work very well for me
Hey! Ide love to know what brand you switched to as I’m looking for the same thing
Love this review the most honest one I've seen on Drunk Elephant thank you for sharing your honest thoughts and opinions definitely helpful 💜 love you Michel ❤💖💗😁
I’d like to see a review for the ordinary skincare line!
I truly hate that brand 😨😨😩😩
@@itskeke-wk8ng why?
@@itskeke-wk8ng I know all skin types are are different but it’s worked rlly well for my skin
I use The Ordinary for a while. It works really good especially the bright set. Affordable and it delivers. :-)
@1OVELYJ1LESXO which product smells like expired eggs ?
Omg Michel you are over 95k!! Only a little over 4k to go!!👀 Yay!
We have the same favorite! The price point is a little painful but honestly these products, along with Curology, saved my skin from adult acne
You seem very friendly and explain things clearly :)
Finally someone who would rather have a good skin, then make up. Definitely a new subscriber and I need to try those products.
I bought all the minis today just due to this video! I keep coming back to it😻
This is SO interesting, I agree generally with what you've said although I actually had the opposite reactions to some things. I didn't have any problems with the baby facial but had a lot of irritation with the protini! Just goes to show how things differ from person to person. But I do love the line by and large and thank you so much for reviewing it! The only thing I'd say is that the marula oil can be gotten from different brands in Whole Foods for MUCH cheaper :)
I would love a video where you compare brands that you have reviewed already!!
Example- the eco Sonya cleanser, hydrator, mud mask vs the drunk elephant comparisons!!
Have you heard of the mara skin stuff? I would be interested in hearing about them. Thanks for the honest review! I love hearing them!
I refuse to buy from Drunk Elephant but I love your content so here I am. I just feel like you are so down to earth and relatable. You genuinely make it feel like we're just chatting like friends
As for skincare, the less I do, the better my skin does. I am doing my best to remember SPF every day and a weekly The Ordinary facial. But other than that, not much. I wash makeup off with various products and don't have a set routine. I want to, but like I said, the less I do to my skin, the better
Why do you refuse? Is it the price
@@-Miss-Americana- Yup. I personally feel they overcharge for basic skincare. I use a drugstore/ULTA brand and find it works just as well as any high end skincare I've tried in the past
Fantastic review! I have wondered about this product line but too pricey for me 😫
Tlc baby facial is my fave! Try the Ordinary products (unless you did already) 💕
I just wanted to tell you that id love to help with the FB group you talked about in the last video I just love you and this friend group and that idea is amazing. Also this review is super helpful but jeez the price.
Put your video on while I made dinner and accidentally watched a 45 minute google ad😂 get that ad sense
Hi Michel, I was wondering about your shop tab on your channel.
It's still set for the TeeSpring collection. Is there any way to change it to your Janse the Label products? That way viewers will see it first and recognise it as your brand, instead of the TeeSpring one which isn't as luxury and unique. Sorry if I'm being nosy, I was just wondering about it! 😊
The baby facial only burns for the first 5 minutes or so and then it stops, at least for me!! I love that product.
Check out skincare by Hyram he explains skin care products in debt and has an educational background in the field. He said products shouldn’t burn! But glad it stops burning lol
I use the TLS Sukari facial. It’s one product to work up to for sure. I’ve used little samples and finally bought the full sized last year. I still can’t wear it longer than 10 minutes, and I still find it effective. I think if yo I leave it on longer than your skin can handle you’ll do more damage than good, but for as long as you can comfortably handle it, I think it’s good, but no need to feel like you need to keep it on for 20 minutes
Dang I wish you’d gotten to try the Lala retro cream! I have super dry skin and have been considering it forever - I’ve tried protini and it wasn’t enough for me 😢
Interesting review...
Some skincare experts I've watched do mention that chemical sunscreens are bad for the environment not necessarily your skin/health though others say so because residues can be absorbed..
I have a mask from Kate Somerville that burns just like that mask! I try so hard to keep it on as long as I can
Other than the beef and the over priced products, I love what this brand does to my skin. It literally makes my face look so air brushed in person which is amazing :)) it’s still really expensive tho which sucks
I’ve only tried hydrating serum in white/blue bottle, and it’s AMAZING. Not enough hydration for drier days, but I compensate it with the ordinary hyaluronic acid serum. I’m on a natural side regarding skin products, before trying drunk elephant I’ve been using pai skincare. I decided to try something new and I don’t regret I bought drunk elephant product. Def recommend, no pimple, no irritation, just soft and smooth skin. After watching this video I wanna try spf cream, jelly cleanser and protein cream. I’ll write my own review here when I try those 😍
The only skincare I use daily is from The Body Shop, because a friend gifted me a set 😅 I only look for a couple of products: moisturiser with sun protection, an exfoliator for face and body, and tea tree products because they minimise my spots. I'm definitely more of a makeup lover than a skincare one, I don't find it as exciting haha 😂
Someone gifted me with a little nag full of mini Drunk Elephant products. I have the jelly cleanser, c-firma day serum, b-hydra hydration serum, TLC framboos night serum, Virginia marula facial oil, protini face cream and the umbra sheer sun screen. The vitamin C serum does smell weird and I find that it dries very quick once I apply it. And after my skin care, my skin feels a bit tight around my throat zone. Not sure which product is causing this, but it may be the cleanser. I've been using cerave and Cetaphil products for months and maybe my skin is just trying to adapt to the new products
Im getting jelly cleanser,protini moisturizer and b-hydra serum i can’t wait!
Hi! I love your channel:) I would love to see a review of Acure skincare and also totally unrelated but America’s Crate- it’s a subscription box of all items made in America. 💗
You should get bubble bc its as aesthetic and its very good abd exactly like the peptide cream
I’d love to see a review of Cocokind! :)
I have dry to very dry skin, live in MN. I love the Marula oil.
I bought 11 products (mostly minis) on sale and I bought some serums u got for 70-90 dollars for 30-40 dollars and im in love
I almost forgot the baby facial on my skin today lol Maybe I just have a knack at pushing discomfort to the back of my mind. It definitely is tingly. I don't use it as much, I really enjoy the framboose
I’d love to see you try out Herbivore! 🥰
Essential oils are actually phenomenal in skincare when diluted with a carrier oil and have been used for thousands of years for the skin (think Frankincense) but it of course depends on the brand... most brands are labeled "for aromatic use only" versus topical and dietary. My skin has never been better since I consistently use my glow serum, spot treatment, face wash, face scrub, and even face masks all made with essential oils. :)
First of all, face scrubs are stripping and horrible for your face, second of all essential oils are not “phenomenal” in skincare, they are very fragranced and not good for skin.
The Baby facial stops burning after like 5 minutes!! Push through the first few minutes. It gets better!!😂
the aha and bha you only need for a few mins, especially if you have sensitive skin!
Ive admired First Aid Beauty from afar but haven’t made the jump to try their products. They have so many and I would love your review on products worth the money.
I am by no means an expert, but experts have told me this: the most important aspect of anti aging is sun protection, and retinols are not so great. They are typically very pricey, and over the counter versions are not proven to be super effective. They aren’t as easy for your skin to use, as they must be converted to a different form, retinoids. You can buy retinoids, but they are prescription (unless you buy the one for acne, adapaline, which is not proven to help with anti aging). The prescription, more effective retinoids are called tazarotene, and tretinoin. Even these are not perfect, as they can be expensive, and irritate the skin even more than retinols. The most important thing is definitely wearing sunscreen no matter the season, rain or shine.
Sorry if this was super confusing 😂 I’m also not an expert in eloquence
Please let me know if you have any corrections or additions!
Watching tthis two years later and all the rage are the chemical sunscreens from Korea/Japan. Also its very easy to get these products significantly cheaper if you know where to look, to the point that paulas is more expensive. Also that ham smell is Ferulic Acid which is in a ton of Vitamin C serums due to the patent/research by skinceuticals.
Have you ever heard or tried Eminence Organics? I love their line
“Work Hard to Achieve what you want. Never give up.” More Vlogs
Check out Niomi Smart on TH-cam. She started her own clean skincare line Smart Skin. You can support a small business and I think she has products you would like! Like her jelly cleanser ☺️♥️
I'd love to see a review of glow hub but I don't know if it's available in America
i will buy the sunscreen, moisterizor and cleansor
I only have two drunk elephant products and for the price there for once actual worth it. The bronzing drops are AMAZING. So is B - HYDRA
Their customer service is non existent.
Can you also remove the eye make up with the jelly cleanser? 😊
I can see you enjoying the H20 skin line.🙂
Hi! How long do you think the sunscreen would last using it roughly daily?
At least a few months! I had the tinted version for the summer and it’s slightly smaller and it lasted me 3 months
Don't forgot you have to reapply throughout the day though!
Thank you, both! ☺️
I do get a few items
The cost is the problem.
Great products but out of control pricing. I can find a lot of dupes for tremendously lower prices. Same results.
I want to try their shampoo and conditioner
What an informative video.
Do u have a DE skin care routine
You should try REN :)
I got fake lala and fake protini cream for £16 for both and they’re amazing
Drunk elephant virgin oil and the ordinary virgin oil have the exact same ingredients with massive price difference £35 de £9 ordinary
Hi Michel :D If you are still using Curology and your treatment contains Tretinoin, then you already have vitamin A (retinol) covered. Personally I think Drunk Elephant has lovely packaging but is vastly overpriced, there are great alternatives from companies like The Ordinary, Paula's Choice etc. CereVe does a great PM Moisturizer that contains Niacinamide (Vitamin B) for a fraction of the cost.
Awesome review now I wanna buy something off drunk elephant site lol
There too expensive for my budget... But I hear there a Great Brand..im too sensitive to smells for my dry face period.!
With that prices, I would rather drink some vodka with an elephant from the zoo near our house.
druk elepant is so pricey
I’ve heard that because the babyfacial has a active ingredients, it’s best to not use directly after showing or washing the face/damping the fact for around 20 minutes to avoid the rough tingling.
Will I buy drunk elephant.??. No
Will I watch your video and ads to support you ??Yes!!!
Drunk elephant is a no 4 me.
After using DE for two years daily the products I think are worth it, shown results and I will continue to use are:
C-Firma, B-Hydra, C-Tango, Shaba Complex, Protini Moisturizer & I have added the Protini Powerserum about 2 months ago and am really enjoying that as well as a new release.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LETTING US KNOW WHICH PRODUCT IS BEST FOR OUR SKIN I APPERICATE SIS. YOU ARE SO DOWN TO EARTH AND ADORABLE SIS. TAKE CARE AND BE SAFE. GOD BLESS YOU BOTH, YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS. LOVE YOU SIS. 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
What’s your skin type?
Don’t be afraid of silicones and chemical sunscreens. These things are both perfectly fine to use on your skin! As silicone is used in emergency medicine for wound healing, and chemical sunscreens may be irritating for some but all in all they are perfectly fine
I’ve tried a lot of skincare products, from western to kbeauty brands and i found out my skin doesn’t like heavily filled silicone products and allergic to chemical uv filters. Lala retro whipped cream literally my HG for helping my skin to heal.
Good Video!
It would be cool if you tried facetheory skincare!
I never knew this brand was for skincare 🤣 I see the word: “drunk” and I’m like: *swipe* nah
Haha same, i actually though its a wine🍷 🤣
Haha same, i actually though its a wine🍷 🤣
What lip product are you wearing??
It’s the Allurearech XR-2270 semi-gloss Alpha balm.
Honest skin care
Just bc of the packaging o dear
you are very radiant
I just don't want to buy because of their controversies (and price lol). For those confused I'll link a well balanced video by Hyram talking abou it: th-cam.com/video/Qtq040qENt4/w-d-xo.html
Check out Kat Nord’s channel. Excellent content. She backs up her information with science. There are many less expensive products that are as good if not better than DE. I’m not going to gross you out with a story, just pass on some of the DE. More expensive doesn’t mean better. Also, Dr. Dray finds great options for every budget, she’s a Dermatologist. Check her channel as well. Then you can take good care of yourself and splurge wisely. I wouldn’t steer you wrong. 😉
Y’all!!! Stop buying Drunk Elephant from Amazon Sephora, etc! Get it from Walmart! It’s like 10 times cheaper!!!!! NO JOKE!!
Ikr! My local Walmart sells it for like, sometimes almost $10 cheaper!
Bubble
Watch Hyram's vids to learn more about the nitty-gritty on which ingredients in which products would suit you best!!
I am lusting. Wish i could afford this stuff. Maybe i should become an influncer lol
I really dislike the scent of their products, they stink lol
you are so beautiful
Early
I love the review, but please don't take the word of youtubers who say "x is bad for you, throw out any products that have it." Unless they have science or medical degrees, it is purely their opinion. Fragrance can be irritating for very sensitive skin types, for other people it's totally fine. My favorite sunscreen, unseen by supergoop, has silicone and it's great for oily skin. A lot of products have it and there is no conclusive scientific proof that it, or chemical sunscreens, are bad for you. Chemical sunscreens may be reef-bleching, but again, there isn't conclusive proof yet. It's great to avoid things that may be bad for you/the environment, but there's no need to demonize certain ingredients.
omg was so confused when I saw "drunk elephant" LOL I was like girl NO you dont drink!! lololol
I had the same thought lol my first thought was like one of those videos where people get drunk and review or react to things
