Wrapping retinol in pure, soothing marula oil, this unique anhydrous suspension delivers retinol to the skin efficiently while also acting as a buffer. This makes A-Gloei™ gentle on skin and easily combinable with other active —in other words, it plays well with others. This flexible formula blends vegan retinol, restorative ceramides, and super-absorbable marula oil, helping to replenish essential lipids and moisture, improve elasticity and bounce, and even skin’s tone and texture while defending against environmental stressors. Versed Mood Lighting Luminizing Glow Drops (shown above in Sheer Golden) is a serum that comes in two shades to give you your most radiant skin. Yet Drunk Elephant put retinol on their nasties list. And they went as far to say… Retinyl palmitate and Retinol (Vitamin A): a nutrient that may damage DNA and speed the growth of skin tumors when used topically. Drunk Elephant 2013 to at least 2015 Vitamin C also helps fade dark spots, evens out skin tone, and increases radiance. As if that wasn’t enough, research suggests that when vitamin C is applied to the skin, it significantly reverses aging-related structural changes by influencing collagen and elastin synthesis. The formula includes 1% retinol, which is a moderate strength when it comes to this ingredient, so this product may not be suitable for newbie retinol users. But if you’re ready for this strength, get ready to reap the benefits because there’s a lot!Overall, this is a really great retinol cream that helps plump fine lines and wrinkles as well as help improve the overall appearance and feeling of the skin. Detailed Opinion:

Retinol Cream - Drunk Elephant | Sephora A-Passioni™ Retinol Cream - Drunk Elephant | Sephora

The cream alone was shown to be carcinogenic so really this was a study of vitamin A in a carcinogenic cream (to mice) not whether vitamin A itself would speed skin tumour growth in a cream which didn’t.One thing we really love about Drunk Elephant is that they don’t obsess about creating “natural” formulations. Natural does not always equal better, just like synthetic does not always equal toxic. About halfway through the 2nd month, I started using Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream every other night, still neat. I continued reaping the benefits of using it, and my skin looked good. I was impressed, and I continue to be impressed. Before Drunk Elephant’s new retinol cream launched all Drunk Elephant skincare came in a plastic pump. A-Passioni does not. Instead Drunk Elephant retinol cream comes inside a snazzy metallic tube. Why? Because retinol hates light and air. Both make retinol go-off. Use a retinol cream that’s gone off and you will not get its anti-ageing benefits. Phew – so long as you keep your Drunk Elephant retinol cream’s lid on – you’re good!
