Where Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Firming Refillable Moisturizer really shines is active ingredient strength, scoring 9.8 compared to Glow Recipe Strawberry Smooth BHA+AHA Salicylic Acid Serum's 7.4.

Hydration Efficacy is another area of separation. Drunk Elephant Protini Polypeptide Firming Refillable Moisturizer scores 7.0 here versus 6.5 for Glow Recipe Strawberry Smooth BHA+AHA Salicylic Acid Serum. That difference comes down to how each formula is built — the ingredient list tells the story.
