ABOUT DRUNK ELEPHANT

Drunk Elephant launched in Houston Texas in 2013, founded by Tiffany Masterson. Drunk Elephant was born from Tiffany's quest to eliminate specific ingredients (the suspicious 6) from her skincare routine. Unable to find something already available, Tiffany set to it and created her own. We are committed to using only ingredients that either directly benefit the health of the skin or support the integrity of our formulations.
