Otherwise, here’s the other thing you need to know about 1.0% Retinol – It is very very strong. VERY. STRONG. Proceed with caution. Drunk Elephant says that their 1% Retinol concentration is that of a ‘vegan retinol’. Personally, I don’t quite understand what a ‘vegan retinol’ is, for retinol is chemically derived, and by that token, is vegan. A nice play to the vegan crowd, marketing wise. use of the content you supply does not violate these Terms of Use and will not cause injury to any person or entity. that is, or may reasonably be considered to be submitted in extreme volumes and as such be deemed as ‘spam’; The texture of the cream is very comfortable, for me, and it sinks right into my skin when I apply. I usually squeeze out just a little bit (a pea size will do) and then apply it using the 13-dot technique.

I will personally say that the Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream is a good product. It is expensive, but it does work well, if you are prepared to accept that it will take time to show results, and work with it slowly and steadily. If you are new to using retinol, I will suggest you build your tolerance up slowly with a product of a lower dosage, and not jump straight into the deep end. But that is your choice 🙂 For this reason, I do not personally recommend the Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream for beginners. I’d peg this as one for someone who is familiar with using retinol, comfortable with it, and who understands their skin. After the first month, I noticed that my skin did look better. It was smoother to the touch, and visibly the texture was better. My fine lines were less noticeable, and my pigmentation looked lighter. On the last point however, I will discount it a little, for it was a benefit of being forced to stay indoors for about 2.5 months, with little sun exposure.

Do note that despite any suggestion otherwise, you should not use a retinol with acids, nor in the day as it can cause your skin to be sensitive to the sun. Always use a good high SPF sunscreen when using a retinol. But then, you already do, don’t you? 😛 Have you tried the Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream? However, if you have never used a retinol cream or serum before this, I won’t recommend jumping straight into the deep-end with the Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream. Start off with something lighter to get your skin accustomed to it, before going up the scale.

Also, understand that this isn’t something you apply on your skin and forget about it. You must be in tune with your skin, so you notice when something goes wrong, or when it goes right. And at the end of the day, patience is key 🙂 Very careful usage of what is potentially a very strong product that can irritate the skin. I did not slap it on, as I usually do with a new product, and I was careful to take it slow and steady. Ideal for all those who're already acquainted with the wonders of retinol (this can trigger irritation and peeling if your skin is sensitive, or if you're new to the retinol realm), Drunk Elephants game-changing A-Passioni Retinol Cream is the perfect addition to your evening-time routine. Retinol: Retinol is one of the most well-researched ingredients in skincare, capable of bringing balance to any skin concern. At a 1.0% concentration, our pure form of vegan retinol can dramatically improve the look and feel of uneven skin tone and texture, as well as ward off the damage done from daily exposure to UV rays, pollution, or other free radicals.I only used the Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream 2-3 times a week, at night only, for the first 2 weeks. I was being very cautious! But there was a big section of reviewers who complained that it left them with dry, flaky, peeling skin – a common side-effect of using retinol, especially in high doses. And A-Passioni Retinol Cream has a whopping 1.0% Retinol concentration.

Apply a pea-sized amount of the cream to a clean and dry face. For best results, limit initial use to once or twice a week, gradually increasing frequency to every other night and finally up to every night. To avoid unwanted redness, proceed with caution if sensitive or new to retinol usage. Key Benefits WHO WILL LIKE THIS: Anyone who wants a strong retinol serum to lighten fine lines, smoothen skin and help fade sun spots, Anyone already familiar with how to use a retinol I admit I was quite apprehensive when I first tried it, but it worked out well for me. It must be said however, I’m no novice, so your mileage will vary when using this – as with all skincare products 🙂 At Drunk Elephant, we believe there are six culprits that are at the root of almost all skin problems. If you take a break from the Suspicious 6, your skin can reset to its happiest, healthiest state. I started using the Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream first mixed with B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Serum. This was to buffer the retinol, so it was not too harsh on my skin. I also used a facial oil every night, and a nice moisturizing cream on top to seal it off.Vitamin F: Soothing fatty acids (linolenic and linoleic) work to improve skin’s texture and suppleness and help soothe skin. The Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream is a retinol cream with a high 1.0% retinol concentration. This can be abrasive and irritating to those with sensitive skin. Always start slowly, and buffer with moisturizing products. I personally did not experience any down time nor down side to using the cream. I started off very slowly with a buffer the first week, before using it neat on my skin thereafter. I also only used it 2-3 times a week for the first month, before slowly increasing the frequency. I now use this on alternate days, always with a good top-up of facial oil and moisturizer, and it’s treating my skin well. My skin is texturally finer, smoother, and fine lines are noticeably reduced. I did notice a fading of some sun spots, but that was coupled with being indoors for most of 2.5 months, so it is hard to say what worked. A good product, but not for the impatient or for those new to using retinol. Retinol works to restore bounce and resilience while helping to even skin tone and texture. This formula includes vitamin F, along with a curated blend of passionfruit, apricot, and jojoba oils to replenish essential lipids and moisture.
