Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream moisturizer 50 ml — lightweight peptide gel-cream for firming and lasting hydration

Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Cream is a lightweight peptide-rich gel-cream that hydrates, firms, and helps restore skin bounce for a visibly smoother complexion.

This moisturizer blends multiple signal peptides, growth factors, and pygmy waterlily stem cell extract into a fast-absorbing base to improve skin tone, texture, and resilience. Designed for daily use, Protini targets loss of firmness and diminished elasticity while delivering lasting hydration without heavy silicones, essential oils, or fragrance. The formula is dermatologist-tested, cruelty-free, and part of Drunk Elephant’s skin-first philosophy.

How does Protini Polypeptide Cream improve firmness and texture?

Protini combines nine signal peptides with growth-factor analogs and supportive amino acids that signal skin cells to look firmer and plumper. Over consistent use, these actives help skin appear more lifted and even in texture, while antioxidants protect against environmental stressors.

• Nine signal peptides to support moisture binding and visible plumping
• Growth-factor mimetics and amino acids to promote a resilient look
• Pygmy waterlily extract supplies antioxidants for surface protection

Will this moisturizer feel heavy or clog my pores?

Protini has a lightweight gel-cream texture that absorbs quickly and layers well under sunscreen or makeup. Its formula avoids silicones and heavy occlusives, reducing the chance of pore congestion while still delivering lasting hydration.

• Gel-cream consistency for rapid absorption
• Non-comedogenic formulation without silicones or essential oils
• Suitable for layering with serums and sunscreens

How do I use Protini with other treatments and serums?

Apply Protini morning and night to clean, dry skin after water-based serums and before heavier oils if used. It mixes well with other Drunk Elephant products and can be alternated in your routine depending on seasonal needs or active treatments.

• Use twice daily for consistent improvement in tone and bounce
• Layer over serums, or blend a pea-sized amount with treatments
• Works alongside retinoids, vitamin C, and hydrating actives

What are the key ingredients and what do they do?

The formula centers on peptides and growth factors for visible firmness, while plant-derived extracts and vitamin-rich ferments support elasticity and skin health. Ingredients are selected to deliver benefits without unnecessary additives.

• Nine signal peptides: plumping, lifting, and moisture retention
• Pygmy waterlily stem cell extract: antioxidant support
• Soybean folic acid ferment (vitamin B): helps maintain elasticity

Who this is for: Protini Polypeptide Cream is ideal for anyone seeking a lightweight, peptide-forward daily moisturizer to address early signs of loss of firmness, uneven texture, or diminished bounce. It suits normal to combination skin types and those who prefer clean, clinical formulations free from essential oils, fragrance, silicones, and harsh sulfates. If you want a fast-absorbing cream that layers under makeup and complements active serums, Protini is designed to fit into both basic and advanced routines.
