Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Cleanser Daily Foaming Wash120ml

Product Information

AHAs have also been found to stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a structural protein naturally produced by the body that is responsible for keeping skin strong and firm. Salicylic acid works by exfoliating the pore lining, which loosens clogged dirt and oil. It also has the ability to dissolve keratin, the protein that acts as a “glue” to keep dead skin cells together in the stratum corneum. Key ingredients include goats’ milk, which soothes sensitive skin thanks to its natural milk proteins, and Manuka honey, which nourishes the skin for long-lasting moisture. For added hydration and conditioning, this moisturizer is also infused with jojoba and avocado oils. The key ingredients that are found in all ExfoliKate products are alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs). The Intensive Exfoliating Treatment contains lactic acid, ExfoliKate Liquid includes a 10% Triple Acid Blend (glycolic, malic and lactic acids), and both the ExfoliKate Cleanser and Glow Moisturizer contain glycolic and lactic acid. But what exactly are AHAs and how can they benefit your skin? We’ll give you a brief overview below.

AHAs are frequently used in skin care products because they provide numerous benefits to the skin. One of the most well known benefits of AHAs is their ability to exfoliate the skin by targeting corneocytes (dead skin cells) in a process called corneocyte desquamation. By enhancing their breakdown and increasing the separation of skin cells, the rate of cell turnover is increased, leading to smoother, more radiant skin. Fragrance ingredients (both natural and synthetic) are well known to cause skin irritation and damage.Since then, the Kate Somerville product offering has expanded massively, and each product is considered cult in its own right. In fact, I’d go as far as to say that Kate Somerville is probably one of the most adored skincare brands by beauty editors and skincare insiders. The products are the very definition of efficacious—from exfoliators to hydrating face creams, every single product works.

The good news is there’s a 10% concentration of AHAs, primarily glycolic and lactic acids, but there’s also lesser amounts of malic and tartaric acids. These ingredients work to remove excess dead skin cells and clear out pores, thereby smoothing skin texture, evening skin tone, and minimizing the appearance of pores. While that sounds great in theory, there’s a lot of pros and cons we need to discuss with this leave-on AHA exfoliant. Formulated to be safe for even the most sensitive skin, Kate Somerville’s Goat Milk Moisturizing Cleanser gently cleanses the skin by removing dirt, oil, and impurities.You see, fragrance ingredients impart scent through a volatile reaction, and this natural reaction almost always causes a sensitizing reaction on skin. Thus, the ExfoliKate products may provide anti-aging benefits due to the inclusion of AHAs in each formula.

One problem with the ExfoliKate collection is that all of the products contain fragrance ingredients. We understand that consumers appreciate when products smell pleasant, but we’d like to point out that fragrance is not skin care.that is, or may reasonably be considered to be submitted in extreme volumes and as such be deemed as ‘spam’; Another woman refers to this treatment as a “ miracle worker” and wrote: “ This stuff is a miracle worker. I spot treat any current, recently popped, or almost at the surface pimples with this product… after a couple of hours the size and redness is completely reduced to almost nothing.” Our mission is to impact lives through California born, Hollywood endorsed, transformative skincare. Kate, a highly respected paramedical esthetician with over 2 decades of experience in skincare, believes that everyone deserves beautiful skin, and it is her promise to get you there.” You’ve probably heard that adding in an exfoliating treatment to your skincare routine can revive tired, dull skin and give you a healthy glow.
