Product Review- Kate Somerville's ExfoliKate®: An Intensive Exfoliating Treatment

Hey Beauties!

I've missed you guys and have been enjoying the summer, but I had to get back to you guys when I discovered this new product. This is yet another gem that I had the pleasure of sampling through my Sephora Play monthly subscription. It’s the Kate SomervilleExfoliKate®: An Intensive Exfoliating Treatment ($24). It claims to be Hollywood's 2 minute facial and it completely lives up to the hype!

Background
My skincare routine contains a mild retinol and that drastically speeds up cell production and causes my face to peel regularly when I'm using it. A few weeks ago I had switched back to the stronger version, Retin-A, in order to try and quickly fade a few stubborn dark marks after a particularly bad breakout. If any of you have ever used Retin-A, you know the peeling is serious! Within the first 24 hours of applying Retin-A, I'm usually peeling on an hourly basis (I know...gross, but the skin that comes thru afterwards is glorious dah-ling! lol). With all that being said, ya girl needs to seriously exfoliate!

Product Review- KateSomerville's ExfoliKate®: An Intensive Exfoliating Treatment

The product comes in a tube and is like a paste that is ever so slightly gritty. Now when you squeeze out the product you'll be surprised that it is bright green and it smells a little like licorice. You must apply it to a wet, clean face. When you apply the product, rub it in for a bit and then let it sit for about 2-3 minutes. You'll start to feel it tingle a bit and you'll know it’s working. After you let it sit, rinse off with warm water and voilà! Your skin will feel nice and clean and all the dead skin will be gone. To see actual result check out this quick review below.

Hey! Can you guys tell what I've been planning for my Valentine's Day look?  I have a vision for how I want to look for Valentine's Day and I know it includes something with a boat neck or an off the shoulders top. It's a look I've never done before and am excited to see how it comes to fruition. I'm going for a soft, feminine, Parisian look. Below are some looks I am contemplating and I thought I'd share and take you on this little journey of creating this outfit. I hope I'm able to execute what I am envisioning in my head.

DO YOU HAVE LOW POROSITY HAIR?

Image
Does your hair seem to always be dry no matter what you do?   Do products seem to buildup on your hair easily or sit on top of your hair and never fully absorb?   Does it takes your hair FOREVER to dry?
