All those serums and moisturizers in your bathroom cabinet won’t do a thing if your skin is being properly exfoliated. “Dead skin basically becomes a barrier between your skin and serums. By removing it you allow everything to work much better,” explains celebrity esthetician and skin expert, Sonya Dakar. There are a lot of exfoliants out there, but none seem to have the same radiance-boosting effect on the skin like the Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Intensive Exfoliating Treatment. In fact, some experts even say that it’s the best anti-aging exfoliant available!
All The Benefits Of Exfoliating Your Skin
-Unclogs Pores
-Prevents Acne
-Evens Skin Tone
-Promotes Cell Turnover & Collagen Production
-Helps Serums & Moisturizers Penetrate Deeper
Exfoliating is more than just scrubbing away dead skin cells. The method actually works as a way to unclog pores, even skin tone, and help the other products in your skincare routine penetrate better and become more effective. Lily Talakoub, MD, of McLean Dermatology and Skincare Center, notes that exfoliating also promotes cell turnover and collagen production, too! “[It] helps cell turnover so the skin looks more glowing,” she says.

"This stuff is SO good. I didn’t realize how important an exfoliator was until I tried the ExfoliKate. It helps my skin feel better - I find myself wanting to touch my skin all the time. And it makes my skin look better which is getting me closer to my goal of ditching makeup. I love this product and highly recommend giving it a try - you will love it." - SaraA.
