So far under the HydraKate line there is a moisturizer and serum that they have come out with but according to my sources we can expect to see more under this line in 2023, There are four main active ingredients found in both products. Alongside dual-weight hyaluronic acid (which means it’s able to reach different layers of the skin, for longer-lasting hydration), there’s a new technology used in the range. In short, it’s a form of hyaluronic acid that can go deeper, meaning it’s particularly good for dry, problematic skin types. It claims to be able to visibly plump skin and boost overall radiance. Both products also include blue-light-activated algae extract, which is said to improve the look of dark spots, fine lines and wrinkles. Finally, marigold flower works to support skin elasticity and improve tone, while targeting the appearance of wrinkles.

Let’s talk about Kate Somerville Hydrakate moisturizer ➡️ the thing about most hydrating moisturisers is that they tend to be thick, heavy and emollient-based, so they can often be sticky, greasy and impossible to absorb. This product is the complete opposite, though – so light it’s almost a gel texture, and you’d be forgiven for wondering how it’s able to hydrate so well. But it does, and it feels as if it has a cooling sensation once applied, too. It absorbs quickly and our tester used it after cleansing and applying the serum in the evenings.

Let’s talk about Kate Somerville Hydrakate serum ➡️ ok, wow, the immediate glow the product gave skin was unrivalled, and, because it’s so lightweight, it sits really well under other skincare products, without causing any pilling. It’s one of the best light but effective serums I have ever tried, It’s 100% perfect for all skin types including combo skin, you need this serum in your life this winter if you find your skin to be on the dry side, even if you have dehydration lines or premature signs of aging the hydration in this will give your skin what it needs.

Overall, both products do what they promise – as expected – and are a good choice for anybody with dry or combo skin. Unlike traditional hydrating products, these are both incredibly lightweight, so shouldn’t clog pores further or cause breakouts. One thing to be aware of is that both products are slightly fragranced. While the brand’s clinical studies indicate that both products are best used together, you could invest in just one or the other, depending on personal preference and skin type (in terms of value for money, the moisturiser is slightly more affordable and has 20ml more product than the serum).
