Drunk Elephant Skincare Review + K-Beauty Dupes! 🐘

[@gothamista]

Love this, Joan and the hair is ‘banging’! 💕

[@ParkerWenig]

Gothamista so cool seeing you on this channel 🤗

[@joan_kim]

Ahh! Thank you!! Come visit Korea again plz 🙏💕

[@miha3847]

Ohhhhhhhhhh !! Gothamista comment !

[@bobmag5058]

[@blondeaussiesurferpending6632]

Gothamista Renee is my Queen!

[@pauli_joy]

I love these reviews but tbh you have literally converted me onto k-skincare! I use to think the only good skincare out there are from expensive western brands, but ever since I've discovered your channel (and COSRX) I feel so much more relieved, because I can rely on good quality skincare with a cheap/reasonable price!

[@joan_kim]

Aww, yes, that’s why I love K-Beauty because there are so many products and brands to choose from 😊

[@artofdylan2356]

cosrx is an ok brand, it just so happens that most western skincare in that price range is really shitty

[@rimun5235]

Simple, Cetaphil, Aveeno, La Roche Posay, Bioderma, Avene, The Ordinary. Personally, I use a $6 cleanser I found at whole foods which was a weird holy grail find as I need a cleanser and was being cheap. Stridex is also $3 and I love that stuff. For toner, I prefer Korean types as they are more hydrating. Liking the Pyung Kang Yul Essence toner.

[@kindabre9666]

same!!!!! my skin has thanked me for it.

[@kimkim518]

"How do you say that in English" lol story of my liiiiiife!! I feel like all bilinguals or just anyone who speaks more than one language natively can relate lol xD

[@joan_kim]

Haha! Yes 😅💕

[@nathlenefaithesguerra]

Feels 😂

[@daisyregalado1965]

Happens to me with Spanish lol

[@padgettfam1133]

More like byelingual :>

[@Caroline-gl2ky]

Can relate soo much

[@Bryane430]

Ordinary has a dupe for Sukari Babyfacial. It’s the AHA 30%. I hope you do a review of Ordinary products!

[@su-tingtan2571]

drunk elephant's packaging is so pretty! ❤😍

[@joan_kim]

Seriously!! I love it so much 😊

[@kadamowicz68]

And that’s what you pay for. Sadly it jacks up their prices so much.

[@almoond829]

The ordinary 30 AHA and 2 BHA is a dupe for the sukari baby facial and it is so cheap

[@joan_kim]

I don’t think I picked that one up while I was in the states, but thanks for letting me know!!

[@maryharry5205]

Is it any good? Did anyone try it? :)

[@sabrinahong975]

Mary Harry I haven’t tried the Drunk Elephant version so I can’t compare the two, but I will say the Ordinary version has given me great results. I use it the same way Joan uses the Baby Facial and I’ve gotten the same effect she’s described.

[@christinesarkis4029]

Deborah ` Oyebade I immediately follow up with a sheet mask. It definitely helps with the dryness and irritation.

[@FongYukYu]

Too bad their CEO is 🗑️

[@Edvasian]

Joan you should try mixing the two eye creams together! I got training from Drunk Elephant at work and they said since everything is silicone free you can mix and apply everything all at once. Also you can mix the sunscreen with the cfirma to create a lighter texture if you don't like how heavy it feels 😊

[@isabellainbloom6175]

Loved this so much! 💕💕 I first tried DE by purchasing the minis set, it has pretty much every product for $90 and you can try them all out and see what you like and don't like. My faves are definitely the marula oil and their lala whipped moisturizer!

[@quilosunflower]

The marula oil and vitamin b-hydra gel are my favorite from drunk elephant. The marula oil is so silky it’s unbelievable! Definitely worth the price🙌🏾

[@HanaLee93]

The night serum is the best thing in the whole worrrlllddddddd!!!

[@joan_kim]

Yes, so good! I have been obsessed with it because it helped out my skin so much❣️

[@hannahj3963]

Hana Lee omg i've never seen you before but you are so pretty! I'm going to subscribe to you!😂❤

[@michellemaeque]

Joan Kim do you use the hight serum everyday?

[@lunaes5998]

i love your new hair!! i have the same skin type as you (dry, acne prone, sensitive) so your skin care reviews really help me. i’ve been researching the drunk elephant jelly cleanser and this review really helped. have a nice day! ♥️

[@joan_kim]

Yay! I’m glad it was helpful. Have a great day❣️

[@shinaeoneday]

I've been wanting to try Drunk Elephant products but it WAY out of my reach😢😢 but your video makes me feel much better because all of it is affordable and I'm currently in using😄😄 Oh yayyy!!! Thank you Joan and have a wonderful day😘❤

[@joan_kim]

Yay!! Hehe have a wonderful day as well 💕

[@humbleguccigirl]

your new hairstyle is soo cute ♥️ I love the bangs. I‘m sad because these products are so expensive. All your descriptions sound really good

[@milu105]

Yess!! I love that you included dupes ❤️ I love bangs on you! They suit you well!!

[@joan_kim]

Yay! Thank you so much 💕

[@Addleysmom]

This was great. I’m an avid Drunk Elephant user owning every product in their line Re-buying it over and over as I’ve found it exceptional without compare. I don’t flinch at the price of skincare as it’s that important to me and admittedly I do believe you get what you pay for in this case. like Deunk Elephant with exceptional ingredients packaging research and their mindset of ethically sourced/packaged items. Also Particularly because it has no added fragrance or fragrant plant oils. I’ve tried a small number of Kbeauty items including some lovely skincare but always found it so confusing as it’s vast. This channel and of course this video helped quite a lot. I’ll always buy DE products but now I am interested in just seeing what else is available that I truly had no idea about.

[@azkabooks]

joan i've been so busy that i have not seen any of your videos for such a long time, i forgot how much i enjoyed your reviews!! this was very helpful, and i loved how you gave us dupes! all the love xx

[@isitbees]

A really cool thing about the jelly cleanser is that it used to be ph 6.2 but the company listened to consumer feedback and lowered it to 5.9 just months after first launching!

[@jennifersaeling758]

i saw the thumbnail and i was like "WHO IS THAT GORGEOUS GIRL ROCKING THOSE BANGS" urghhhh i'm absolutely in love!!!

[@96LuckyCharms]

Hey Joan! The reason why the eye duo is recommended is the same reasoning with face serums with face moisturizers. The shaba eye serum is a copper peptide rich product that stimulates collagen production to firm and tone lines and wrinkles but to also increase circulation and blood flow to reduce self inflicted darkness with the use of black tea. There's also niacinamide or Vitamin B3 for brightening as well. Just like a face serum, it is more potent that your face cream so an eye cream is a must. C-Tango is a basically a baby between their C-Firma and Protini Moisturizer. 5 blends of Vit C to correct sun damage, discoloration and stimulate collagen production to tighten and firm the under eye. Included is a blend of 8 peptides to correct, tone and firm the skin by triggering the eye to produce more collagen. Plus other antioxidants to protect from environmental damage!💛

[@goodiegoodygumdrops]

Luis Martinez What's a dupe of that protini moisturizer? I looove that stuff

[@RosaDaniello]

For vit c Serums for daytime the Hada Labo one is a good option! I mean it's a dupe for the price but the quality is totally on point!

[@anhhuynh4866]

You should try their Protini moisturizer too. It's not so much a gel nor a cream either, it's an in between moisturizer and it has helped so much with my skin texture for the past months. It also includes peptides and very gentle on the skin, probably my favorite product from drunk elephant thus far.

[@noorallawati5390]

Protini is Magic! 1 week and I see results!

[@graysthenewblonde177]

So glad you did this video!,I keep seeing Drunk elephant products at Sephora and have been wondering if they were any good or not.

[@su-tingtan2571]

I love ur hair!! 😍 im thinking of cutting my hair to bangs one day haha

[@joan_kim]

Yesss, do it!

[@standay6395]

YOURRR HAIRRR ISSS SOOO CUTE LOVE YOU JOAN💕

[@joan_kim]

Thanks, love!

[@delshadxenakis]

Thanks so much girl for sharing! Right now I have the V-C eye cream and love it. Want to try some other stuff too and now I totally will! :)

[@asianguyen522]

Yasss I have been waiting for this video! I didn’t know if I wanted to purchase drunk elephant due to the price but I’m glad to have your opinion on it! ❤️❤️❤️

[@PriscillaSanchez]

Their packaging is so simple and enticing! Love the new hair 🤗

[@joan_kim]

Thanks, Priscilla 💕

[@jovietan3576]

Eating my breakfast while watching your video = best combi 🙌🏼

[@joan_kim]

Hehe yayy!! I’m about to eat breakfast tooo

[@katyleep]

Same issue with the cleanser!! It emptied out in my travel bag! Same with the spf in a travel size. Glad they changed it. I have since switched over to all k-beauty thanks to your reviews 😀

[@margarethakim]

This was so thorough and informative! I’ve always wanted to try drunk elephant but wasn’t sure which products. This was so helpful! Thanks Joan

[@joan_kim]

3ce makeup is amazing!! Hehe try drunk elephant next time 😘

[@annabeljustlisten]

I am absolutely grateful. Your hairstyle rocks 💯👑 having Abe in your video is always fun to watch. You guys are the best 😘😻😻😻😻😻

[@TheChristineHuang]

Thanks for the review, I've been wanting to try Drunk Elephant forever and maybe one day I'll make the splurge for the glycolic night serum and babyfacial. Your hair looks so good btw!!

[@fosterkitteneos]

Such a beautiful hair type. Loving the nails too. Getting my fix from Joan. 💞💞

[@joan_kim]

Hehe thank you so much❣️

[@marjan3010]

Great video thanks for the review . I am going to try the AHA and BHA treatment. Have heard great reviews and you have confirmed it too. Many thanks

[@christina4465]

I love Drunk Elephant skincare and love most of their products! Thank you, thank you for the review! :-) They are great but it is quite a hefty price tag. I loved the fact that you mentioned some alternatives. 👍🏻💝💕😄

[@donnamclaren952]

Thank you Joan, great detailed content and trust your reviews always. Loving the k-dupes as well ❤😍

[@shahadonly3424]

Omg your hair is sooo pretty I’m in lovvve 💖💖💖 I love u so much , I will translate this beauty in arabic cuz you’re amazing you deserve more and more ❤️❤️❤️ God bless you Joan.

[@joan_kim]

[@Ali-kx7tb]

[@MarissaMagn0lia]

[@NadiahIzzatiiii]

your hair makes you look so young!! super cute and refreshing

[@joan_kim]

Hehe thank you❣️

[@charleszackary9123]

You're so cute when you keep on checking and looking at the viewfinder! 😍❤

[@allysonbtr]

I LOVE THE THUMBNAIL SO MUUUUUUUCH

[@aisyahismail27]

LOOOVEE your nails! also, it's great that you squeezed in some dupes in the video, i can't really afford most of drunk elephant products at the moment, lol

[@renatalidwina]

Thanks Joan for introducing Cosrx to me!!! nothing beats cosrx product and the cheap price definitely my favorites!!!!

[@denatashkovska9537]

I wanted to purchase this skincare good thing i waited for this review for a trusted judgment... and again i loveee ur hair

[@joan_kim]

Yay! I hope this review was helpful. Thanks for watching❣️

[@denatashkovska9537]

Joan Kim it definitely was, it quite pricey to purchase without an honest review

[@rickysung1282]

omg love ur new haircut 😍😍😍good to see u have used some new products 😊😊😊

[@joan_kim]

Thank you so much! And yes, I like to take my time on trying products before reviewing so that’s why drunk elephant took a while. Haha!

[@JoyceLe]

Love your new hair! 😍Cosrx is still my all-time favourite when it comes to dupes. But hopefully I'll be able to try out Drunk Elephant's serums one day.

[@paradiseana1]

I think it's worth paying the big bucks if it really works and it makes you feel good to pamper yourself we all deserve that. Joan your nails are to die for like the nail color comb and your rocking that Tee luv the color/lettering. You look good in yellow.

[@rebeccakanya5887]

Yayyyyy finally comments after a long time. Been crazy for awhile bcs of last term project for uniiii , nice review joan 😘

[@joan_kim]

Aww, welcome back! Thanks for the support 🙏💕

[@Joshua72150]

Joan, thanks for the insight and review! DE has been on my radar for a while now and I was curious to see what dupes I could find. This helped.

[@VENIKA]

You’ve totally sold me on the TLC baby facial, I am currently trialling both the day and night system as well as the marula oil and moisturiser, I am excited to see some great results. Although I feel that because I am already familiar with acids I won’t see drastic results as some others do and for that price, I’m not willing to risk it!

[@becklynnie6954]

Love how honest and straight-forward you are ! although the products of drunk elephant are way too expensive for a broke ass student like me, I definitely look forward to trying some of the dupes you have shared! for those out there who also fear the high price tag, niacinamide is also such an affordable ingredient to incorporate into the skincare! (cosrx or the ordinary). Thanks Joan!!

[@liagi090781]

wow, thank you for this, I always follow your skincare recommendations, and I honestly felt lost with the drunk elephant brand, and you explained this beautifully!, thanks!!!!

[@yagalterry]

Ah girl! Your bangs are bangin' 💕

[@ariamusicchannel9206]

No matter what you never bore me even if its a review Xoxo love ya

[@joan_kim]

Aww, thanks for the support!!

[@LhyloCo]

Ooooh yay, this is just the video i love your channel for! So glad you were able to do this, i feel like an old friend has walked back into my life. Haha.

[@quinkdinkbink]

Love your new hair! Any chance you have some quick tips for a dry skinned gal with really bad red acne scars on how to fade them (preferably fast lol)? Love your channel x

[@joan_kim]

I have a video on how I faded acne scars! But I think vitamin c products worked the best for me :)

[@quinkdinkbink]

Joan Kim Thanks for the tip! Will definitely look into buying one of them :)

[@menangmenuo4863]

when i first saw the thumbnail, i thought it was Sunny.. your bangs look good on you.

[@ChoiMadi]

I am so curious about your favourite products in all skincare steps routine...or what are your favourite products to call them your skincare routine ..PS:love your advices.You are my skin saviour😄

[@atmidnights1106]

I LOVE THIS AND I LOVE YOUR NEW HAIR

[@484ABA]

your hair looks so flippin cute

[@LinhTran-fi1kz]

I love your hair Joan! It suits you!

[@babyskull456]

Love your hair omg!! You look stunning as always ❤❤❤

[@annemariarendi6402]

Love your channel and you so much!! I always knew that Drunk Elephant is great brand, but I was still shaking from the price😂 Now when you made this video I’m probably gonna purchase these in the future, because I just love how you talk about the products and give recommendations❤️

[@chiae0]

Love your hair 언니! You look so cute 😊 (never clicked a video so fast in my life 😝)

[@joan_kim]

Aww, thanks for the support!❣️

[@Nooya73]

yyyaaas joan love ur new hairstyleeeee 💕 you look so edgy

[@YolandaChenYT]

You look so good! That lip colour looks bomb on you and the marula oil is quite amazing! The ordinary one isn't too bad tho

[@QBlackjack]

Also about the Shaba eye serum, I didn’t like it at first but when I realized it’s a serum(dumb me not reading the label properly 😂) , I tried using an eye cream too after and it helped a lot!

[@karinaadwaita385]

The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution is the cheaper dupe for Drunk Elephant Sukari Baby Facial. It works great in clearing pores and improving skin texture.

[@verapham9345]

you look stunning! love your new hairstyle 😍💓

[@amyb8529]

Your hair is so pretty!!

[@ChristyMY]

ok, 30 secs into the video and I thought I was watching a KZbinr who I was not subscribed to UNTIL I HEARD JOAN’S VOICE.

[@jayleneismenia2467]

When I read the title I thought you were going to do a drunk review. Like how Jenna Marbles does drunk videos XD

[@joan_kim]

Lollll 🤣

[@GreenwithAnvy]

I highly recommend you try the Pekee Bar! It's my all time favorite cleanser. Thank you so much for the review on the other DE products!

[@zhafarinas849]

Your hair looks so good on you!😍

[@thisisacrappyusername892]

Omg I'm LOVING the hair! Xx

[@dananagata3799]

Thank you for the review! Definitely down the line I eventually want to try the drunk elephabt products because they definitely seem like a great brand!

[@virgo_maverick3904]

Your hair looks so good!!! 😍😍😍

[@joan_kim]

Thank you!!

[@InvisebleDork]

love this its super informative, i've always been super curious about this brand but i honestly can't see how the prices for them are justified. After trying k-skincare and knowing that i can get the same results at more than a fraction of the price i just can't bring myself to purchase it. They'll forever remain sitting in my shopping basket

[@karenw1205]

Loving the new hair joan

[@solene9848]

Your new hairstyle suits you so well ! So pretty~ 😁

[@joan_kim]

Thanks, love!

[@joojangmi8702]
