Drunk Elephant became immensely popular among kids, tweens, and teens, becoming a social-media-fueled phenomenon associated with the rise of "Sephora kids"—now, the performance skincare brand is deliberately refocusing in a more adult direction with Please Enjoy Responsibly, a campaign that evolves its messaging and formulations to appeal to mature consumers.
Please Enjoy Responsibly neatly ties in with Drunk Elephant's alcohol-referencing brand name, and underscores powerful ingredients and active levels designed to deliver real results. “As we usher in the next chapter of Drunk Elephant, this campaign expresses our commitment to serving our community—consumers who are deeply invested in their skin and value both ingredient integrity and proven results," shared Barbara Calcagni, President of global brands for Drunk Elephant, NARS and Dr. Dennis Gross Skincare.
Drunk Elephant updated retail merchandising and its social platforms to reflect a fresh look and feel.
