Hello from KateHello from Hollywood! The city is buzzing with preparation for the year’s biggest red carpet! My clients rely on the Kate Somerville Skin Health Experts Clinic on Melrose Place for their radiant, red-carpet ready complexions. The foundation of the Clinic is remarkable results, without down time. As you know, in Hollywood, it’s all about being camera-ready at a moment’s notice. That’s exactly why I developed my newest product at QVC, RetAsphere Hydrating 2-in-1 Retinol Treatment, so my clients could benefit from theresults of retinol. From the runway to the red carpet, it's all about barefaced, natural-looking, glowing skin!


To create your own red-carpet moment, the most important steps to remember are exfoliate, hydrate, and moisturize. The three products I can’t live without to achieve these simple steps are: ExfoliKate Intensive Exfoliating Treatment, my revolutionary DermalQuench Liquid Oxygen Treatment, and my rich moisturizer Deep Tissue Repair Cream with Peptide K8.

ExfoliKate Intensive Exfoliating Treatment is infused with natural fruit enzymes, gentle acids, and microbeads to help clarify, polish, and brighten your skin to reveal a glowing, fresh-from-the-Clinic complexion. You'll see smoother, brighter, healthier-looking skin after just one treatment. DermalQuench Liquid Oxygen Treatment is my secret weapon! I developed DermalQuench because I wanted my clients who couldn’t visit my Clinic to be able to bring home my most sought-after treatment! DermalQuench immediately addresses the signs of aging and keeps skin hydrated; I really love the dramatic results. Deep Tissue Repair Cream with Peptide K8 seals in hydration, and helps improves skin’s moisture content. It’s also clinically proven to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while having a visibly smoothing effect to the skin.

Healthy skin is a combination of our external, internal, and emotional health. A healthy lifestyle is absolutely essential to beautiful skin! This is especially true before a big event. Here are a few tips I’ve gathered along the way that help meachieve complexion perfection.



  • My favorite morning ritual is making a green vegetable juice or smoothie. It jump starts my day by providing clean, healthy energy. I’ve also seen a huge improvement in the clarity and brightness of my skin.

  • Throughout the day, I enjoy meals packed with organic fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, and complex carbohydrates such as sweet potatoes, quinoa, or brown rice.

  • Internal hydration is so important! It’s not just about the products you use on your skin. Drink plenty of water and eat water-rich foods such as vegetables and broth-based soups.

  • Work it out! It's important to make room for at least 30 minutes of daily exercise. A simple jog around the neighborhood will not only do wonders for my skin, but willhelp me keepin control the stress that tends to build around special occasions.

  • Rejuvenate with proper rest! For the ultimate beauty sleep, I use a humidifier and add a few drops of therapeutic essential oils to the water, such as chamomile. Not only do I experience a calming sleep, but my skin will benefit from the added moisture.


I’d love to hear about your favorite products or tips for a red-carpet-worthy glow!


See you on the red carpet!


Love,
