According to a publication in the journal Clinical Interventions in Aging, retinol can minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve uneven skin tone, restore skin firmness, and unclog pores. Pretty impressive, right? That being said, I do find that my eye area is slightly firmer, and it certainly does feel moisturized, so I’ll definitely keep using it—especially if it’s preventing further damage, which I suspect it is. All Drunk Elephant skin care products are formulated without the brand’s list of “Suspicious 6” ingredients, which include: 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. Hesperidin Methyl Chalcone: A potent flavonoid that helps reduce the appearance of aging under the eyes.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. The Green Caviar Perfecting Eye Gel is formulated from a range of superhero ingredients that all play their part in revitalising tired eyes that are in need of some TLC. Aloe vera is one of the key ingredients, which is ideal for helping to soothe puffy, tired eyes, while green tea, ginkgo bilboa and elderflower work in perfect tandem to offer an antioxidant fix that can help to brighten skin and reduce the presence of dark circles. On top of that, it also contains Early Boost®, a vegan-friendly supercomplex that claims to smooth and hydrate skin. We loved its easy-use triple-bead applicator: the trio of stainless steel beads are designed to maximise results by providing a gentle massage at the same time as application. The price point is another great talking point, as it straddles the line between budget and high-end perfectly, and can typically be found even cheaper at Boots than the RRP stated above. Promising visible results in a matter of days, it firms up skin as well as helping to minimise the appearance of dark shadows. It features Clarins’ new anti-pollution complex, which aims to protect skin against both indoor and outdoor pollution, and boasts a 96% natural ingredient list, which includes around a dozen natural extracts. Retinol is the go-to anti-aging ingredient recommended by dermatologists and skin experts. Retinol is clinically proven to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve uneven skin tone, restore skin firmness, and shrink the appearance of enlarged pores.

The only downside? Retinol can often lead to side effects like skin dryness, peeling, and irritation. 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. Peptide Blend: Eight peptides with the power to rebuild, strengthen, and improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Skin looking a little dull? If so, adding in a product that exfoliates (aka removes dead skin cells) can help to revive dull, tired skin. Drunk Elephant TLC Framboos Glycolic Night Serum is a chemical exfoliant that contains a blend of 12% AHAs (glycolic, lactic, tartaric, citric acids) and 1% BHA (salicylic acid). These exfoliating acids will help to slough off dead surface cells, revealing healthier skin underneath. And as with all Drunk Elephant products, the formula contains supporting ingredients to nourish and protect the skin, such as raspberry fruit extract, horse chestnut, and marula oil. Drunk Elephant C Tango Multivitamin Eye CreamDrunk 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. Ubiquinone: Supplies coenzyme q10, a vital antioxidant that decreases with age and has been shown to reduce the depth of fine lines and wrinkles. While you may find marula oil in hair care products, it’s also widely used in skincare products. The Virgin Marula Luxury Facial Oil makes this ingredient the shining star in its formula. Rich in antioxidants with a combination of omegas 6 and 9, this rehabilitating recipe of nutrients helps to rejuvenate your skin to achieve that dewy glow. Due to my sensitivity, I was a bit wary going into this review. However, I can firmly say I'm absolutely in love with Drunk Elephant's A-Shaba Complex Eye Serum. Formulations never include harmful ingredients like fragrance, dyes, essential oils, and drying alcohols
