Drunk Elephant Mello Marula Cream Cleanser review
Post contains affiliate links
I haven’t used a cleanser from Drunk Elephant in a while, I was obsessed with their Slaai cleanser.
I happened to be in Canada when this was released and snapped it up in Ulta Beauty.
I’m not sure if it has been released in the UK yet but I’m sure it’s on the way. Here’s what I think of their new kid on the block.
Pros
Low-lather cream formula
Reduces redness
Works well to remove make-up
Gentle
No fragrance
Cons
The price
 | Key Ingredients and effects |
|---|
1.0% colloidal oatmeal - a soothing antioxidant, used for its anti-redness reducing abilities and it helps lock in hydration
Sclerocarya birrea (marula) seed oil - very absorbable, high in omega 6 & 9, and helps to moisturize the skin
Shorea stenoptera seed butter - rich in fatty acids and provides intense hydration
 | Feel & Texture |
|---|
Creamy
Soft on the skin
Hydrating
 | How to use |
|---|
Gently massage over wet or dry skin. Add water to lather. Rinse well and pat dry.
Skin Types ℹ️
Suitable for all skin types, especially sensitive - as always patch test your skin first
Price and my verdict
This cleanser sits on the shelf for £34/$36 for 150ml. Whilst I agree that it is pricy for a cleanser, you do get a lot of product for the price.
I’ve said in the past cleansers don’t have to be too expensive, unless you want them to be or its a splurge item.
However, a cleanser like this one where it is super gentle on the skin would be an investment for anyone who has difficulty finding cleansers that don’t irritate their skin.
It has great ingredients, the packaging is okay and it does take off make-up well, even around the eyes. You can use it as your 1st & 2nd cleanse, I preferred it as a second cleanse.
Drunk Elephant Mello Marula Cream Cleanser conclusion
This is the first Drunk Elephant product I purchased in a very long time; when I saw it in Ulta Beauty I just had to.
Would I repurchase it? Yes I would, but no rush.
