Since there’s so many exfoliating products on the market nowadays — like scrubs, exfoliating cleansers, and leave-on exfoliants, just to name a few — you may be wondering where to start. The formula contains high concentrations of several skin-softening emollients, including one of our favorites: squalane. Squalane ​​is super-light, non-greasy, and sinks into the skin fast, yet it helps the skin to instantly feel soft and moisturized.You see, fragrance ingredients impart scent through a volatile reaction, and this natural reaction almost always causes a sensitizing reaction on skin.

ExfoliKate Glow Moisturizer is a silky, lightweight moisturizer that exfoliates while also improving skin’s hydration.

Sadly, this is another product in the Exfolikate line that contains a lot of fragrance ingredients, such as bergamot oil, lavender oil, orange peel oil, and many more. Overall, customers agree that Kate Somerville’s collection helps them treat acne without drying out their skin. Plus, the products help them prevent future breakouts. We’ve already mentioned that the key ingredients used throughout the Kate Somerville Exfolikate collection are alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs). But what exactly are AHAs? And how can they benefit your skin? We’ll give you a brief overview below. In case you don't understand the importance of exfoliating, Nazanin Saedi, MD, a board-certified dermatologist and director of the Laser Surgery and Cosmetic Center, explains that it's a crucial step in helping the skin rid itself of the dead cell debris, which allows for skin renewal and regrowth. There are four products in the Kate Somerville Exfolikate collection: a cleanser, exfoliating scrub, leave-on exfoliant, and moisturizer. Let’s look a closer at each of these products so you’ll know exactly how they affect your skin.

Like its name suggests, Kate Somerville’s Wrinkle Warrior 2-in-1 Plumping Moisturizer + Serum fights hard against common age-related skin issues. Targeting wrinkles, fine lines, and loose skin, this product helps women achieve a more youthful appearance at home. This moisturizer exfoliates skin with a blend of chemical exfoliants, including lactic acid and fruit enzymes. These ingredients work to exfoliate dull, dry surface skin cells to reveal smoother, brighter skin. Uses: Exfoliates to target dullness, uneven skin tone, and the appearance of pores, fine lines, and wrinkles Editor’s Note: We reviewed this article on September 24, 2023.

Collagen is a structural protein naturally produced by the body that is responsible for keeping skin strong and firm. Collagen production starts to decline around age 25 and continues to decrease with age. Collagen levels also decrease due to factors such as smoking, sugar consumption, and overexposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays. Ultimately, this decrease leads to wrinkles and sagging skin. Thus, the ExfoliKate products may provide anti-aging benefits due to the inclusion of AHAs in each formula. In addition to AHAs and BHAs, several of the ExfoliKate products include exfoliating enzymes derived from fruit, such as pineapple, papaya, and pumpkin. For example, one review says, “I found this way too strong. It practically burnt my cheeks. Might be good if you don’t have sensitive skin!” I thought it was pretty cool that this one bottle would replace three of my existing skincare products, totally cutting down the time in my morning routine. Treating the skin while providing juicy hydration, it also primes the skin for the perfect makeup base.
