Beauty obsessions: this trending cream from Drunk Elephant
You have those skincare products where you know at the first use: this is a match. Even if it went viral on TikTok, that doesn’t necessarily mean it actually works well. Sometimes it takes 28 days, the time in which you can really say what you think of the product in question, but with the Protini Polypeptide Cream from Drunk Elephant, I knew right away. Upon application, my skin seemed to give a signal as if this was exactly what it needed; it felt so soft and cared for immediately. Not so strange either, because if you look at the ingredients like Pygmy water lily stem cell extract (sounds very complicated), you find out that they provide extreme hydration and have a soothing and calming effect on your skin. The cream is also rich in proteins that repair your skin and reduce wrinkles and signs of sun damage (think: pigmentation spots) through the ingredient permitted soy folic acid extract. The packaging is one that many brands can learn from, because even though it’s in a jar, it’s still super hygienic and all the ingredients remain stable for much longer. Here’s how it works: when you remove the top lid, you quickly see that there’s another lid, but with a small hole. As soon as you press the second lid, the cream comes out and is ready to be applied to your face. You can even choose to add any serums or the popular Bronzing Drops to mix in on the lid instead of on your hands. Curious how that looks? Check out the video below. So for everyone who could use some extra hydration or has spent a bit too long in the sun last summer: this cream is what you need.
