Squeeze Beste™ No. 9 into palm and gently massage over wet or dry skin. Add water to lather. Rinse well and pat dry. Use nightly or in alternation with other Drunk Elephant cleansers.
Tip: We recommend skipping the morning cleanse, as it’s not necessary if you’ve cleansed your skin the night before.
- Mild Surfactant Blend: Mild cleansing agents, including coconut-based surfactants rich in fatty acids, work together to create a gentle lather that effectively dissolves even stubborn makeup, sunscreen, and oils while supporting the healthy skin barrier.
- Glycerin: A skin-identical humectant, glycerin helps replenish hydration levels that are normally lost in skin during the cleansing process.
- Cucumis Melo Cantalupensis (Cantaloupe) Fruit Extract: Rich in antioxidants, this extract helps soothe and hydrate.
- Virgin Marula Oil: High in critical antioxidants and omegas 6 and 9, this nourishing oil boosts the cleansing and makeup-removal power of Beste™ No. 9.

The Drunk Elephant Difference
We are committed to using only ingredients that either directly benefit the health of the skin or support the integrity of our formulations. We never take into account whether something is synthetic or natural, instead choosing ingredients based on biocompatibility. That’s why we focus on healthy pH levels, formulations the skin recognizes, small molecular structure that’s easily absorbed, and effective active ingredients that also support and maintain the skin’s acid mantle. But what we leave out of our products is just as important as what we put into them, so you will never find what we call the Suspicious 6™ (essential oils, drying alcohols, silicones, chemical sunscreens, fragrances/dyes, SLS) in our line. We believe that these six ubiquitous ingredients are at the root of almost every skin issue, and when they’re removed entirely from your routine—that is, when you take a Drunk Break™—skin can reset and return to its healthiest, most balanced state. This ingredient-elimination diet benefits all skin types and inspired the #barewithus🐘 Instagram movement, a collection of bare-faced selfies that chronicles the Drunk Elephant journeys of people who have found not only healthier skin but more importantly, healthier self-confidence.
