Hall of Fame - Kate Somerville Goat Milk Cream

I love it when I stumble across a product that over-performs and becomes a staple in my skincare wardrobe. This is one of those times. I bought this in New York this Summer and have literally used it night and day since. It ran out yesterday morning (gutted - although it did remind me to blog about it) and I am DEFINITELY repurchasing. When I bought it I thought it would be 'interesting' as it said it was for combination/sensitive skin and particularly good for acne. Well that Kate Somerville - she NO LIE. What's in it? Goat Milk - lactose being the key part of this inci - gently exfoliates but maintains the PH balance of the skin Coconut and Jojoba - moisturising without clogging pores Grape Seed for antioxidant purposes Witch Hazel - anti-bacterial Avocado - nourishing Rosemary - anti-bacterial and toning Neem - healing and anti-bacterial Black Willow Bark - antimicrobial - same properties of salicylic acid which kills the germ specific to acne What's good about it? It works. Straight to the point I know, but it soothes redness so is suitable for sensitivity as well as acne-prone skins and is also cooling upon application. The instances of red cyst-like acne lumps on my face almost ceased entirely. I had a couple show themselves at that time of the month but that was it. Absorbs nicely. Skin feels comfortable with no residual tackiness. Comes in a completely air-tight pump action pot that dispenses just the right amount and also stays germ-free. AND. It's 80% organic. Who knew? What's bad about it? Not widely available in the UK. Only available in selected Space NK stores. The $ versus £ price is as per usual, favourable to buying in the USA. That's it. If you have redness, sensitivity, acne or combination skin, I highly, highly recommend this product. Goat Milk is approximately £50.00 with the exchange rate and available from KateSomerville.com
