KATE SOMERVILLE EXFOLIKATE FACIAL CLEANSER {REVIEW}

This is my first Kate Somerville product review, so it calls for a 

brief overview of the founder and the brand.

After enrolling at an esthetician school Kate Somerville got the idea

 to use active ingredients to help patients heal more quickly 

after cosmetic surgery. 

In 2004, Kate opened her first Skin Health Experts Clinic in the 

heart of Hollywood.

 Celebrity clients quickly fell in love with Kate’s post-procedure care

 and began booking esthetics appointments with her.

In 2005, one of Kate’s celebrity clients asked her to bottle her 

clinic super facial so she could take it on location while filming 

under harsh lights.

Kate’s holy grail product, ExfoliKate® Intensive, was born. 

Today, her clinically perfected luxurious formulas are sold all 

over the world. 

Jessica Alba, Olivia Wilde, Kate Hudson, Kirsten Dunst, Eva Mendes and

 Demi Moore are just a few of the many leading ladies who entrust the 

Los Angeles-based esthetician with the care of their complexions.

KATE SOMERVILLE EXFOLIKATE FACIAL CLEANSER

was another full size product from my 

John Lewis Beauty Advent Calendar

but sadly this brand is not available in South Africa.

This cleanser is a luxe, daily foaming face wash for all skin types 

that effectively cleanses 

away dirt, oil, makeup and other impurities while gently exfoliating 

to reveal softer, smoother, glowing skin.

Formulated with active ingredients that deliver transformative results

with minimal irritation.

Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid 

refines the pores and helps to clear build-up on the skin's surface.

Papaya, Pineapple and Pumpkin Enzymes 

naturally enhance skin exfoliation without over drying

Gentle enough to use morning and night to clear debris while visibly 

improving texture and pores.

Apply a small amount to wet face and neck and massage gently

 for 30 seconds. 

Rinse and gently pat dry. 

I have been enjoying this gentle exfoliating foaming cleanser

 and in particular the fresh, clean fragrance.

It delivers on its claims and the skin feels exceptionally

smooth post rinse and it would be a perfect 2nd step product

in a double cleanse routine.

Would I purchase? 

I don't think I would, however if I was on

a Kate Somerville regime for a specific skin issue

 then most definitely I would

as it's important to keep to the recommended sequence of

 products, as they have all been formulated in order for your skin 

 to achieve the best results.
