This medicated cleansing foam helps to ease pore congestion while it alleviates the look of blemishes. Gliding across the skin’s surface, the daily formula purifies without over-drying.

Designed for regular use, this cleanser is perfect for oily skin types. The face wash swiftly captures surface-level dirt and grime, supporting a clean, clear and comfortable complexion. A seriously clever cleanser, Kate Somerville’s ExfoliKate Cleanser gently removes excess oil, make up and surface impurities while also exfoliating away dulling, uneven cells to diminish dryness and reveal unrivalled radiance. It’s all down to gently exfoliating ingredients, including a duo of alpha hydroxy acids – glycolic and lactic acids – and Kate’s ‘three Ps for perfect skin’: pineapple, pumpkin and papaya enzymes. These advanced additions work to counteract dullness, dryness and uneven skin tone and texture by loosening and sloughing away dead, dulling cells to reveal the beautifully balanced, even radiance beneath. Purifying without over-drying, Kate Somerville’s creamy daily foaming facial wash leaves skin fresh, soft and conditioned – it’s the perfect way to cleanse.
The Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Cleanser is a daily foaming wash designed for those with acne-prone or oily skin, offering a refreshing cleanse that minimizes the appearance of pores and balances oiliness. This cleanser is a great choice for daily use, helping to purify skin without over-drying. A potential caveat is that the exfoliating ingredients may cause initial sensitivity for some users, so it's recommended to start with less frequent use.
