Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Daily Exfoliating Foaming Cleanser — Travel Size 1.7 fl oz, Glycolic & Lactic AHAs

This travel-size 1.7 fl oz version delivers clinic-derived exfoliation in a portable cleanser made for everyday use. Formulated with AHAs (glycolic and lactic acid) and a blend of papaya, pineapple and pumpkin enzymes, the cleanser lifts away oil, makeup and dead surface cells while maintaining hydration. Clinically tested for immediate results, it’s designed to soften skin, improve visible texture and help pores appear refined when used as part of a regular routine.

How does this cleanser exfoliate without stripping skin?

The formula combines chemical exfoliants (glycolic and lactic acids) with natural fruit enzymes to loosen dull surface cells and dissolve oil. It foams to lift debris and rinses clean so skin feels refreshed rather than tight.

• Glycolic and lactic acids promote gentle cell turnover.
• Papaya, pineapple and pumpkin enzymes digest dead skin buildup.
• Foaming texture removes dirt, oil and light makeup effectively.
• Free from mineral oil, parabens, phthalates, SLES and SLS to reduce irritation risk.

Will this work for my skin type and when should I use it?

The cleanser is formulated for broad compatibility and can be integrated into both morning and evening regimens. Start with daily use and adjust frequency if you experience sensitivity; it is gentle enough to be used on most skin types when applied as directed.

• Suitable for normal, combination and oily skin; proceed cautiously if very dry or reactive.
• Apply to wet skin, massage for about 30 seconds, then rinse.
• Use once or twice daily depending on tolerance and climate.
• Follow with moisturizer and sunscreen during daytime routines.

What immediate and short-term results can I expect?

In clinical testing, most participants reported the cleanser removed oil and makeup thoroughly and left skin feeling soft after a single use. Over continued use, texture appears smoother and pores look more refined thanks to regular exfoliation of surface cells.

• Immediate: cleaner-feeling skin and reduced residue from oil and makeup.
• After multiple uses: smoother skin texture and a more polished surface look.
• Helps maintain clarity when paired with complementary serum and moisturizer steps.
• Travel-size lets you keep results consistent while away from home.

How do I incorporate this into a complete skincare routine?

Use the ExfoliKate Cleanser as the cleansing step before serums and moisturizers. Because it contains AHAs, pair it with daily sun protection to protect new skin cells and avoid over-exfoliation with other acid treatments.

• Cleanse with wet skin, massage 30 seconds, rinse and pat dry.
• Follow with targeted serums (hydrating or treatment-specific).
• Apply moisturizer; use SPF during daytime to protect exfoliated skin.
• Avoid combining multiple AHA/BHA products simultaneously to reduce irritation risk.

Who is this for: This travel-size Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Cleanser fits anyone who wants a clinic-inspired daily exfoliating wash that refines texture and removes buildup without harsh stripping. It’s ideal for travelers, people beginning an AHA routine, and those seeking a compact option to maintain smoother, brighter-looking skin between professional treatments. If you have very sensitive or barrier-compromised skin, consult patch testing or a skincare professional before regular use.
