    I have oily skin and I'm a guy, so harsh products don't really bother me (read: this is a harsh product). I've even put lavender oil and tea tree oil on my face neat and haven't had problems (don't...

    Purify Exfoliating Cleanser by Kate Sommerville is, IMO, just "OK". I've used better cleansers that were cheaper. The only thing I have liked of her line would be the ExfoliKate. This cleanser does...

    This cleans about as much as water cleans my hardwood floors. I'm through with sampling Somerville's over-hyped, over-priced line. YMMV, but none of her products are remarkable enough for me to...

    This cleanser was far too drying for my sensitive combination skin. It actually tingles when you apply it, so some might find this invigorating/refreshing, especially in the morning. The smell...

    Love this cleanser. I'm normally dry/combo but this cleanser is exceptional. It smells wonderful and minty and I feel it working. It balances my face out and I love it.

    I got a sample of this and I really liked it. It didn't dry out my skin or cause any kind of irritation. You only need the slightest little bit to clean your face, which is good since a full size...

    Gentle cleanser that doesn't strip my face and leaves a nice tingly sensation. A little goes a long way, I try to use half a pump. Overall a nice product. Forgot to add that it did clog my pores.
