Scouring the digital desert for an anti-aging serum only to find an oasis of overhyped, pricey potions that leave your skin irritated and your wallet a dollar short is seemingly a rite of passage in the quest for an improved complexion. The trial-and-error process of finding over-the-counter skincare products to combat fine lines and wrinkles, boost collagen, and even out skin texture can be daunting—especially when the goal is to get quick results. Kate Somerville has always been one of my favorite skincare brands, whether it be the infamous exfoliating formulas or its sensitive-skin-friendly cleansers, but the brand’s newest launch may be my favorite yet.
Kate Somerville’s latest serum is designed to target a number of skin concerns and yield visible improvement in as soon as one week—all in one gentle formula. The new multi-tasking formula, Mega-A Skin Transforming Serum, is infused with retinal (a super effective yet gentler form of vitamin A), a dual-weight hyaluronic acid to hydrate and plump, and squalane to soothe and nourish the skin barrier.
