Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Glow Moisturizer 1.7 oz — daily exfoliating hydrating cream for smoother, brighter skin

Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Glow Moisturizer is a daily hydrating cream that exfoliates and brightens to reveal smoother, more luminous skin after one use.

This lightweight moisturizer combines gentle chemical exfoliants, hydrating humectants, and plant extracts in a single formula designed to improve surface texture, even tone, and radiance. Formulated in Kate Somerville’s clinical lab, it balances exfoliation and moisture so you can use it morning and night without leaving skin tight or dry. The product is free of mineral oil, parabens, phthalates, SLES and SLS, and is intended to be layered with serums or used alone for a simplified routine.

How does this moisturizer improve skin texture and glow?

The exfoliating action comes from glycolic and lactic acids that gently lift dull surface cells, while fruit extracts support cellular turnover and visible brightness. Hyaluronic acid attracts and holds moisture, and squalane helps restore a soft, supple feel so skin looks smoother and healthier.

• Glycolic & lactic acids for chemical exfoliation
• Hyaluronic acid for instant and lasting hydration
• Squalane to replenish lipids and prevent dryness
• Fruit extracts to support natural radiance

How quickly will I see results and how should I use it?

In an independent clinical study, participants showed measurable improvements in moisturization and luminosity after a single use; continued twice-daily use supports ongoing refinement of texture and tone. Apply a thin, even layer to cleansed face and neck in the morning and at night; use it alone or top with your preferred serum.

• Apply to clean, dry skin morning and night
• Use a pea-to-nickel-sized amount; spread evenly over face and neck
• Layer over serums or use by itself for a streamlined routine
• Follow morning application with SPF to protect new skin cells

Is this moisturizer suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

The formula balances active exfoliants with hydrating agents to minimize irritation, but sensitivity varies by individual. If you have reactive skin, start by using it every other day and monitor for redness or stinging; discontinue if persistent irritation occurs.

• Begin with limited use if you have sensitive skin
• Patch-test behind the ear or on the jawline first
• Combine with calming, fragrance-free products if needed
• Consult a dermatologist if you have chronic skin conditions

What makes this different from other exfoliating creams?

The ExfoliKate Glow Moisturizer is formulated to deliver both immediate exfoliation and substantial hydration in one step, rather than stripping skin then rehydrating with a separate product. Its clinic-developed blend aims to refine surface texture while maintaining barrier function so skin looks brighter without feeling tight.

• Clinically tested for moisturization and luminosity
• Combination of AHAs and nourishing emollients
• Free from mineral oil, parabens and common sulfates
• Designed for daily use as part of a routine or solo

Who is this for: This moisturizer is ideal for anyone wanting an efficient, two-in-one product that gently exfoliates and hydrates—particularly those concerned with surface dullness, uneven texture, or loss of radiance. It's well suited for normal, combination, and dry skin types seeking visible brightness without multiple steps; sensitive skin users should introduce it gradually. Use it as a morning glow step (with SPF) or a replenishing night cream to promote smoother, healthier-looking skin over time.
