Love This Product!
6/17/13
I first bought this kit in order to try EradiKate, which has a cult following. Eradikate has turned out to be my favorite product in this kit, but I have seen such a difference in my skin that I am planning to continue to use all of the products in this kit. I have sensitive, combination skin with consistent breakouts on my cheeks and forehead. Within 3 days of using this kit, I saw a huge change in my skin. I have less acne and even the acne that I do have is smaller, less red, and disappears within 1-2 days. As soon as I feel a new pimple forming under the skin, I dab on EradiKate and it is shockingly gone overnight; amazing! My only complaint with this kit is the small size of the moisturizer. I ran out of the moisturizer within a few weeks, where as the other products lasted close to two months. The moisturizer is imperative, especially when you first start using this kit, so I would recommend a bigger size!

Glowing Results!
6/5/13
This kit has been a great intro to Kate's products for me. I have combination skin with hormonal acne on my chin and these products have really helped to balance my skin out. I definitely have more of a glow and have seen a reduction in pore size.
I am giving the kit four stars because I wish the products could heal this persistent, stubborn neck breakout that I am experiencing faster, but my jawline acne has always been very tough!Kristin also recommends...

I have been using this kit for just a few days and already I see a difference! I have not had any more breakouts and the ones that I had are disappearing quickly. The moisturizer does not dry out my skin like other products have in the past. I would highly recommend this kit to anyone!

My 2nd purchase of this kit!!!
5/31/13
I think this kit provides the best deal for what it has to offer. The first Blemish Banisher Kit I purchased lasted over 2 months, with the exception of the moisturizer. I repurchased this because I was running low on EradiKate and ExfoliKate. EradiKate itself is worth half of the price of the entire kit. This kit is awesome for acne-prone individuals or for those who want to maintain a good skin regime. Recommended!

Cystic Acne
5/11/13
I have horrible cystic acne on my chin. I have tried proactive and other multiple acne products however nothing has ever helped. I have only been using this product for 3 days and my skin feels better and looks healthier. I am so excited to keep using this product. It is lightweight and looks great under my make up.

I have struggled with acne for several years. I have tried proactiv, what seems like every acne product you can buy in the store, and have even seen several dermatologists, yet I still suffer from pretty severe acne on my chin. I decided to give these products a try and I am so glad I did. I haven't even been using these products for a week and I am already noticing a big difference in my skin appearance. The redness on my chin is fading, my cystic acne has shrunk, and my overall skin appearance looks a lot healthier. I will definitely be purchasing this product again.

Great starter kit
4/29/13
I loved this kit. It was a great way to try the Kate Somerville line. I've been battling adult acne this year, and have taken all sorts of medications. And using expensive skin care lines! I decided to get off the medications and try this. My skin has remained clear. It seems to be evening out my complexion, as well. Great products!

I tried this and now I don't know how I will ever live without it. I suffer from really bad break outs and extremely oily skin, I used to exfoliate every day . . . . but with this system I only have to exfoliate once every week. On top of that my skin is int he best condition it's EVER been! I love these products!

Good Set
4/13/13
At first I was interested in trying EradiKate, but when I found this kit, I decided to try the other products as well. This kit is really at a good price when you consider the cost of the products alone! The Eradikate and facewash work very well to prevent new pimples from popping up, but when I first started using this kit my skin was very dry and I do not think the moisturizer was enough to prevent the dryness. Additionally, the small jar the moisturizer comes in is sloppy. The moisturizer is my least favorite product in this kit. However, I really do plan on purchasing the full size face wash. It really helps to keep my oily skin less oily all day long, and leaves my face feeling clean. The exfoliator is also great at reducing redness. I recommend this product to anyone who is interested in trying Kate Somerville.

Finally found something that works..
3/4/13
I can not believe i finally found a product that works, i have been struggling with acne for the last 6 years after i had my son, after trying everything from birth control, doxycycline, to every face cleaner out there, a friend of mine told me to try kate somerville products. I didn't listen to her for about 4 weeks then one day i decided to give kates products a try, and i have never been happier. My face is clearing up and not only that but my skin has never looked so soft and smooth. My boyfriend noticed and said i smile more and look happier. It is worth a try is what i tell all my friends, and give it a couple of weeks, i noticed the second week i had little red bumps on my face but they went away after 3 days, i figure it was just the products working all the dirt and makeup out that was deep in my pores. Oh and one more thing i LOVE the oil free moisturizer, i have oily skin and it takes all the oil away throughout the whole day.. Thank you Kate Somerville..

I bought this kit to see if I would like these products. So far, I really like the cleanser and the moisturizer. My skin has looked great. The EradiKate has helped. I only use it at night since you can see it when its applied. The moisturizer is really small. I didn't realize when i ordered it that it is only .5 fl oz. I plan to order more of the moisturizer.

Effective Even on Sensitive Skin
2/24/13
I have been using the blemish banisher kit for one week so far and have seen a marked improvement in my skin. I tried proactiv and clearasil but neither of those seemed to have an effect, and in fact made my skin much worse by causing it to go into oil hyperdrive. I am 23 years old, so the teen remedies don't seem to do me any good. I will be sticking with Kate from now on. Make sure you are vigilant about using the Cleanser and Moisturizer every morning and night, and the EradiKate at least at night. It's not going to help if you sleep in your makeup routinely.

Gentle & Effective
2/23/13
I have been using this kit for 9 days now, and so far so GREAT:) The products are super gentle on my sensitive skin, even the Eradikate (pink drying cream). I've tried at least 50 different skin care regimens in the last 5 years trying to find one that caters to my skin needs: sensitivity, occasional acne, prevention of fine lines and wrinkles. Looks like I may have found it here!
The cleanser has a nice, fresh scent and doesn't leave my skin feeling tight at all like many cleansers do. I have only used the exfoliator twice but I like it very much. The pink formula I use at night on any large blemishes and it does reduce them significantly by the next morning. The moisturizer is nice and light, but I will need to purchase a slightly heavier one for my skin because it's not quite enough for me. I'm 27 and I have sensitive/acne prone skin.
Since I've only been using it a little over a week I hope I continue to see results of clearer, brighter skin like I have already noticed. The ONLY reason I didn't give the kit 5 stars is because the moisturizer and exfoliator are tiny, but I do still think it's an overall good value for the quality of the products.Ashley also recommends...

Adult Acne Clean Up Crew
2/19/13
I have suffered from Adult Acne for most of my 20s. I had lovely clear skin with a few zits here and there in high school, then everything went crazy halfway through college. Over the years my acne has gone from pustules and breakouts around stress and the TOTM to deep cysts along the jawline and neck (classic adult acne zones) now that i'm in my late 20s.
i'm almost tempted not to write review because the combination of these items are working so well! i don't want to jinx it! i tried another well known acne kit that also contained a sulfur spot treatment as part of the regimen in college, and had a horrible sensitive skin reaction to it. Kate's formula must be perfect for where my skin is at now in my life because the combination of the face wash with minimal salicylic in it, the scrub 2x a week with salicylic in it, and the sulfur treatment at night has dramatically improved my cysts and healed whiteheads lightening fast. The lotion is ultra gentle, incredibly light but hydrating for my flaky winter skin, absorbs fast, and leaves my skin feeling soft. Makeup goes over the lotion in the daytime like a dream.
if you're concerned about having a reaction to the sulfur or the salicylic in the face wash, or feel that these haven't worked for you in the past, just try the kit out. I used to swear by benzyl peroxide and thought salicylic gave me cysts and i was too sensitive for sulfur treatments. i'm glad i gave these ingredients another try later in life since your skin needs and hormones do change over time. With this kit, i'm finally seeing improvement in my adult acne breakouts!C also recommends...

I had laser resurfacing surgery twice on my face a couple years ago now and ever since my skin has been going crazy with acne and lots of issues! Not to mention I can't seem to use the products I used to because my skin is more sensitive after the surgery. I have been searching for something to help me without making it worse.. And these products finally seem to be doing the trick! My skin is so soft after using this kit! My breakouts are getting better. I noticed the first time I used this. I definitely recommend this!

Life changing!
2/1/13
I decided to give this kit a try before starting accutane therapy from my dermatologist. The main selling point was that some of the users stated they noticed a change after only ONE use. I ordered my kit. The kit arrived in perfect condition with all elements just as specified.
After one use of this regimen, I instantly felt the skin on my forehead, cheeks, around my mouth, and along jaw line tighten. My acne scarring and discoloration was so bad, I had dark red oozing sores on my face and deep crater like indentions. All sores were gone in 2 nights and it calmed the redness all over my face. The deep scars have almost all smoothed out after about 2 weeks. I've never experienced products like these. I have extremely sensitive, acne COVERED skin that most products hurt to cleanse with. NOT THESE!! I cannot tell you how this has changed my life. I know this isn't the MOST affordable brand, but its the only products I will ever use. WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!!

this is probably one of the best acne regimens EVER! I seriously recommend it ! The cleanser cleans your skin thoroughly without leaving it dry! The exfoliant leaves your skin soft and flake free without being too harsh! The moisturizer has a lovely soft feeling and absorbs really quickly! And last but certainly not least the spot treatment is the BEST part, it shrinks cystic acne and dries up whiteheads! overall great product!

I have only been using the Blemish Banisher Kit for only one week, and I've already noticed a great difference in my skin! I'd been using ProActiv for several months and was frustrated with the results. After just one week, areas that were discolored are fading and my skin has a nice glow to it!
This is a great package for new comers. I will definitely purchase more Kate Somerville items in the future!Blair also recommends...

Finally a product that works!!!
9/26/12
I have used everything under the sun to try and clear up my cystic acne, I'm 33 years old I didn't think I would ever find something that worked. My dermatologist had me on oral medication and a variety of topical stuff but the side affects were horrible and my skin was always red and dry. This kit did what nothing else could do, cleared up my skin. I saw improvements in 1 week!!! Thank you so much Kate. The products even smell great, an awesome bonus!!! This is a great way to get your feet wet, you will be back for more.

I will never be without these products
6/3/12
I am 22 years old and I have very oily, acne prone skin. I never write reviews, but ifeel like everyone needs to try these products. I have tried basically every product on the market, including high end products (some of which cost more than twice the amount of the full sized Kate Sommerville products). Nothing has worked. I tried this kit and within two weeks even my most stubborn cystic acne is gone. My skin is glowing! The smell of the daily detox cleanser is refreshing and relaxing and the moisturizer does its job WITHOUT clogging my pores! I use these products every morning and night with my clarasonic and even my congested, oversized pored are shrinking! I am in love with these products! For the first time in my life, I look forward to cleansing my face. I will never be without these products! Thanks Kate!!!

Kate Somerville products are expensive and we all can appreciate that. It's hard to decide whether to bite the bullet and invest in such expensive skincare if you are unsure it will be successful. This kit is fabulous. I have oily, acne prone skin. This kit is performing better than my prescription acne topical medications. The cleanser is weird to get used to (and it falls deep into my clairisonic brushhead so I lose a lot of product) but it seems to be working well. The ExfoliKate Acne is PHENOMENAL and I cannot wait to get the full-size of this. The EradiKate isn't doing too much for my active breakouts, but that's okay. I believe it's sulfur based and I've never responded well to sulfur for acne. The oil-free moisturizer is TO DIE FOR and I also cannot wait to get the full-size of that. Overall, an excellent investment and you can really see what works for you and what doesn't. You would spend close $55 on these 4 items at Target or Walmart, it's worth a try!

I looove this kit. I get blackheads and whiteheads and then i get big cystic pimples and this works wonders for my skin. I've tried almost everything from neutrogena clean and clear, clearisil, and the clinique acne solutions andd the three step kit and nothing has seemed to work. I got this hoping and praying it would work and take my big cysts away. i got it last monday and i have to say i love it. the cleanser smells so good and cleans really well the exfoliator isnt too rough on your skin and the lotion is very moisturizing. but my favorite part in this kit is the eradikate. you put this on your big pimples at night and they are almost gone by morning and the redness is gone. by the third or fourth day you sleep with it on your pimple has disapeared! thank you so much kate I will repurchase forever!

I ordered this kit as a way to try out Kate's pricey products without committing to a large spend and then later finding out they didn't work. I had mostly good skin for the bulk of the last 10 years (after experiencing horrible breakouts as a teenager). Late this past summer, I tried another product line after a friend raved over it and it's become clear that it doesn't work for me. Anytime I go near it, I get several large pimples. It seemed to be a cycle now and I was looking for something to give me back my good skin as well as a "glow." This kit is it. I've been using it for a week now with no problems. The break outs-- even the monthly break out-- has stopped, my skin is glowing (yes, even after a week of use) and I'm sold on the line.
