I'm interested to get feedback on a couple of items from Drunk Elephant.
Here is quote from the Drunk Elephant website:
D.E.’s mission is to deliver clinically-effective, clean skincare formulated with both cutting-edge synthetic and natural ingredients; and without the ubiquitous toxins, sensitizers and irritants, such as the disruptive essential oils, that block the pathway to healthy skin. We pay close attention to pH and toxicity levels, as well as formulating with efficacious percentages of active ingredients. Our goal is to teach the consumer that “natural” doesn’t automatically mean good and that every ingredient should directly and only benefit the health of our skin or the safety of the formulation. We shift the focus off of the consumer’s “sensitive” skin and on to the insensitive marketing ingredients that are responsible for the majority of our skin problems The company website claims that their products are non toxic and packaged in order to maintain integrity of active ingredients and ideal pH levels.
Listed below are ingredients for C-Firma™ Day Serum and T.L.C. Framboos™ Glycolic Night Serum. Both items have received high ratings from Beautypedia. Do the ingredients and packaging warrant spending over $80 per product?
Thanks for any comments,
Lemon

OH MY!
Lots of Vitamin C choices at much better prices:0)
I have bought the Timeless Vit C but was concerned that Vit C potency might be compromised by dropper bottle and air exposure.
Thanks so much for your HELP, it's most appreciated. Can't wait to investigate all the options.
Have a Wonderful Week
