Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Exfoliating Cleanser Travel 1.7 fl oz — Daily Glycolic & Lactic Acid Foaming Wash

Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Cleanser is a daily foaming face wash that combines glycolic and lactic acids with fruit enzymes to gently exfoliate, remove impurities, and refine skin texture without overdrying.

This travel-size 1.7 fl oz formula brings clinic-inspired exfoliation into your everyday routine. Developed by the Kate Somerville team, the cleanser foams to lift dirt, oil, and makeup while a blend of AHAs and fruit enzymes works to polish the skin surface. It’s designed to deliver visible smoothing and pore refinement with a gentle feel that fits both morning and evening cleansing steps.

How does this cleanser polish skin without stripping moisture?

The formula pairs glycolic and lactic acids—two well-known AHAs—with papaya, pineapple, and pumpkin enzymes that help loosen dead skin cells and buildup. A lightweight foaming base clears impurities so skin feels clean yet comfortable, not tight. The pH and ingredient balance aim to provide effective exfoliation while maintaining hydration.

• Glycolic and lactic acids for surface exfoliation and smoother texture
• Fruit enzymes to gently dissolve dead skin cells and debris
• Foaming action removes oil and makeup without heavy dryness
• Formulated without mineral oil, parabens, phthalates, SLES, or SLS

Can I use it every day, and how do I include it in my routine?

This cleanser is formulated for daily use and can be incorporated into both morning and evening regimens. Apply to wet skin, massage for about 30 seconds to let the acids and enzymes work, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with your usual toner, serum, and moisturizer to lock in hydration and protect the newly resurfaced skin.

• Use on damp skin, massage gently for 30 seconds, then rinse
• Suitable for morning and night routines
• Follow with hydrating steps such as serum and moisturizer
• Patch-test if you have very sensitive or reactive skin

What results can I expect, and how quickly will they appear?

Many users report immediate differences in how clean and soft the skin feels after the first use. With consistent daily use, you can expect smoother texture and a more refined look to pores over several weeks as surface cells are regularly renewed. Results depend on skin type and complementary skincare habits.

• Immediate: noticeably cleaner, softer-feeling skin after one use
• Short term: improved texture and brightness with regular use
• Ongoing: gradual refinement of pore appearance and surface smoothness
• Clinical testing supported user-reported cleansing and softness benefits

Is this travel-size bottle a good option for trips or trialing the product?

The 1.7 fl oz travel format is convenient for carry-on luggage and short stays, letting you test the cleanser without committing to a full-size bottle. It fits easily into toiletry kits and gives enough product to evaluate how your skin responds over multiple washes. The compact size is also handy for introducing the formula into a new skincare routine.

• Airline-friendly 1.7 fl oz travel size
• Portable for weekend trips or gym bags
• Enough volume to assess skin reaction over several uses
• Ideal for trying before buying full size
