I told them that their hydra b5 wasn’t enough, so I use a toner/essence, and they told me I couldn’t because toners and essences have fragrance. They weren’t about to hear about ones that didn’t. Never trust a brand that says you can’t use products from other brands. Edit: after coming back to this video, I realized that the drama does not affect the products. They’re still amazing, and I don’t have a problem purchasing them just because of horrible customer service. I’ve worked in customer service for a long time and I know that things aren’t always as they seem. I understand why people are “cancelling” this brand, but they’re evolving and I’d rather use products I know and trust.

@michellemichael1676 4 года назад

Really I have never seen them say you cannot use any products from other brands. Just that you should avoid other products with fragrance and other skin irritants.

@modernaristocracy3641 4 года назад

Michelle Michael, they had no reason to assume the products I used had fragrance. They did tell me that my skin problems would not go away until I only used products they approved of, and of course recommended their products. That was years ago, when I bought their entire line out of desperation. My skin was dry and irritated after a few weeks because the chemical exfoliants were damaging my skin barrier. They blamed my acne, dryness, and irritation on the fact that I once used a moisturizer that contained silicone. Maybe they didn’t explicitly state that I couldn’t use other brands, but it was definitely implicit that they were the only ones I should trust.

Love you. Personally, I don't think the name itself exploits elephants.. it's a cute name and most people probably don't know the myth, and I'm guessing no one would exploit elephants even if they knew the backstory (especially when they're in the cruelty free market). Just my thoughts. I don't think the name is bad.

@scottrogers9132 4 года назад

I love that people get super excited about learning things! (Ingredients, history, etc..) I remember when the retinol first came out. I had question as a skin nerd and they did not disrespect me. They didn’t dis-credit me either. They were patient and very polite/pleasant. I’ve always had a philosophy: what works for some doesn’t work for others. I’ve never experienced the social media attack/customer service attack. I kinda feel like the max flux in people trying it; the traffic, is more than the customer service team can handle. (No excuse for these attacks as you put it) so maybe a more structured and supportive head of HR needs to be considered. I’ve worked in this atmosphere for a while now, and the sad thing despite how it all plays out is how everything is a witch hunt. You’re a very savvy and smart individual. I believe in freedom of speech and respectfully listening to people’s views. Honestly your money and your choice has always been a motto. I just wish people would go back to educating instead of influencing. (It’s a double edged sword with how you take on these such issues) But in the end you lowered yourself a little when you wanted to educate by taking a jab here and there with this presentation. State the research and facts you’d like to hit on by anything that you encounter with a negative. Always stay positive and then the “content” has a solid purpose. I still enjoy the research and passion you give. But slightly concerned if this is going to be a continued characteristic(s) of what’s to come in your content.

I used to be a HUGE fan of Drunk Elephant. I used to own all of the products and used to turn all of my friends & family onto the brand. I think now that we're a much more understanding community and we are able to make decisions for ourselves without needing all this marketing thrown in our face it hurt brands that rely on marketing, or packaging. We've become aware of ingredients and I would say most of us have the tools to understand them (Hyram, Susan, Cassandra, etc...). I think what Drunk Elephant does is insane to me. When you touched on the point of how their philosophy of "all skin issues are the same" really REALLY bugs me. I would love for my rosacea to be just a reaction to my skincare products, but ITS NOT. Everyone in my family has it and no amount of cute names and sleek packaging will change my skin.

I'm a skincare education professional. I've really disliked this line for years. The fear-mongering was just so insane to me. Beyond that, Tiffany had absolutely no background in skincare and has been very transparent about building a line solely for the sale of it. DE's sale is the single most expensive skincare line sale. It's been around for 8 years. And the numbers - the annual sales - are completely unsustainable. Further, when I worked for Sunday Riley, I was in a Sephora store with the DE account executive and she literally yelled at me in store, on stage, in front of clients. The culture of that company is so toxic, the irony is just unbelievable. Also, their vitamin C serum sucks. It's a totally unstable formula. They phrase it on the bottle with "best fresh, don't stock up." You can literally watch the product oxidize over a few weeks.

Please continue to do these in depth videos and talk about the science behind ingredients. Yours, someone with hyper pigmentation that is FINALLY fading.

As one that doesn't have much skin issues, aside from Psoriasis and bacne if you will. I don't do a whole lot of skin care rutine. But what I love is the honesty Cassandra puts in her videos. Because than someone like me who does decide they want to try new skin care products I can do my own research and hear another person's review and Cassandra does amazing at telling as much information or truth when there is a LOT of hidden agendas behind a product/ skin care line. Also just subscribed! can't wait for more videos. ^~^

All I can say is OMG 😮. Thank you for educating your audience. I used to love Drunk Elephant. I sent a message to DE asking if the company would sell the mini Baby Facial year around. I received a very nasty message stating either wait till the holiday season to purchase the mini or try something more affordable for you. Seriously 😳. Rather I can afford the product or not, did not address my question. Perhaps, I was asking for travel purposes. Anyhoo, it really irritated me & I started to notice similar complaints. Needless to say, I discontinued using all Drunk Elephant products. I found better products with exceptional customer service & even samples to try before you buy. Thank you again 😊. Cheers 😉🌷

@loudmouthwife 4 года назад

Okay 2 questions: 1. Do you know of a dupe for the b hydra? That’s one of the only products that really really works for me 2. Where did you get that elephant mug 👀

@modernaristocracy3641 4 года назад

B hydra wasn’t hydrating enough for me, so I had to PILE it on to get enough hydration. Hada labo lotion is an amazing product. It’s available on amazon, $12-15 for a giant bottle. It’s a clear liquid with tons of hydrating ingredients and comes in different intensities for different skin conditions. If you want a brand that sells officially in the U.S., try some Korean brands. Many of them are available online, or in Ulta or Sephora. They’re more affordable than American brands but tend to be fragrance free and have great ingredients. Just look for the word “essence.” I hope this helped; if you have any questions, I’ve been into skincare for a long time and could likely answer questions you have :)

@HelenFire420 4 года назад

Try the hado labo skin plumping gel cream. It’s a great humectant. Also I believe you can get that mug on amazon.

Hi Cassandra, as you mention several times infringing the patent of Skin Ceutical CE Ferulic, are you should it did not expire yet? I heard about very good dupes due to the expiration of patent, but again I did not research it. It’s just heard on the YT. Thanks for the brand review. Always appreciated.

@kisacat 4 года назад

Wow, I didn't know this about Drunk Elephant. Thank you for speaking about it. I've also struggled with acne and skin sensitivity and was so excited for DE to be available in Australia, as soon as Mecca launched this brand I bought almost everything that was available at the time, including TLC serum, hydra B serum, both soaps and also received a deluxe sample of C- Firma serum recently. I wanted to love these products so bad but each one caused the same reaction, small red bumps all over my face filled with something that looked just like water but I'm not entirely sure what it was. I've tried each product multiple times because I didn't want to believe that the reaction I was getting was from DE products, but sure enough I've reacted each time and as soon as I would stop using those products my skin would heal withing a few days. The only few products that didn't cause a reaction was c-tango under eye cream and soaps, however I've noticed my skin texture got a lot worse when I was using soaps and my skin also was all over the place, so I stopped using soaps too. Also after watching this video I don't feel like purchasing c-tango cream ever again, even though I loved it but price is just too high - it's $93 AUD or something ridiculous like this. Thank you again for the video 💖

@emilyv768 4 года назад

I think it is so great what you are doing. Thank you for discussing this. I had no idea about it. I’ve only ever used one product which I like, but I won’t be repurchasing. I just have one thing to say. You said that we should help the voiceless and help them. I just hope that you are morally consistent with this and not just avoid products that test on animals, but also act in accordance with what you eat. Because yes, animals need us to advocate for them💚

I've tried a couple of their products and I thought they were ok, but nothing special. I definitely felt they represented poor value for money. However, regardless of the products, the way the organisation presents itself and acts towards its customers and others in the industry is truly appalling. Such abhorrent behaviour is not acceptable and I thank the likes of Cassandra and Hyram for calling it out ✌🏾

@CassandraBankson 4 года назад

Thanks so much for your comment on this. If I may share a bit more of an explanation: yes, I am very aware that Africa is a continent and I am familiar with the different countries within Africa. While doing research for this video, the scientific article in the Journal of zoology specifically mentioned particular countries, within Africa, where this phenomenon was happening and research was occurring. When I was filming the video, (and having this study as a reference in my head), I said “exploiting a country”, and it wasn’t until I was editing that I realized this mistake, because although the study related to this specific area, the phenomenon is happening throughout the continent, in multiple different countries. I tried to correct this with an asterisk but I completely understand how it comes off a different way. It’s never my intention to offend others, or to try to spread misinformation. That being said, coming from America, we never even had to learn the countries in Africa. (Disposable of your ask me) That was something I did on my own later on in my educational career. I don’t blame people for looking at this brown hair, green eyed chick from America and thinking that she wouldn’t know the difference. Either way I thank you for bringing it up because it further helps to clarify things for those who may not know and opens up the much needed healthy conversation. Appreciate you!

@CassandraBankson 4 года назад

Zinnia Roberts hey gorgeous and thank you so much for bringing this up! I’ve checked, and the Latin name for marula oil, sclerocarya birrea, is in every single one of the skin care products that I looked at. I always love to learn though! Can you please tell me which of the products do not contain sclerocarya birrea kernel oil/ marula oil?

I’m sorry but where did the whole “silicones are deadly” thing came from? I get that some people don’t like it in their hair conditioner, fine. What is wrong with silicon in a moisturizer?

@HelenFire420 4 года назад

@Serein Serenity that’s true. I just don’t understand the whole thing about silicons specifically are going to hurt you, not what they can trap in your skin (which is true of all occlusive ingredients)

@georginachan9725 4 года назад

There's actually nothing wrong with silicones in skincare. They are simply occlusive ingredients that trap moisture in your skin therefore they do benefit your skin by decreasing the transepidermal water loss. They're no worse than any other occlusive ingredients. Actually they're great for oily skin because they're very light and breathable. Obviously they may trigger acne for some people but so everything else can. The plastic wrap thing is a common myth that comes from 'natural/organic' skincare philosophy.
