Love KD’s Essential Exfoliating Gel. Such a beautiful product, calm and gentle on my sensitive skin, but effective in removing dead skin cells leaving my skin silky smooth! Such an easy part of my weekly routine, gently working the gel in until it becomes a liquid. Thank you KD
The best exfoliator I have ever used! Leaves my sensitive skin feeling clear, soft and smooth with a glow like no other. This is my once a week treat which I will never give up.. the transformation is incredible..
This exfoliator is perfect for my sensitive skin and leaves my skin bright and glowing. No scrubbing required so it’s lovely and gentle.
Perfect for my sensitive skin. It gently exfoliates without irritation.
A very lovely, gentle exfoliator, no harsh scrub beads which leave your face red and sore, this just does the job and leaves your skin smooth and soft
Very light texture and works perfectly. I take it to the gym and use it after showering.

Only used it twice but it made my skin soft and hydrated
I have bought this many times In fact I have been using Katherine Daniel’s products for many years and would not be without them. Great Products
It's lightweight beautiful
I always use the exfoliating gel before applying my face mask. It is perfect for sensitive skin as it is non abrasive and very gentle on the skin. It definitely helps to make the masks work to their full effect.
Best exfoliate i have ever used☺️
I've used this for years. The best exfoliator ever. It goes on like a jelly and turns into this beautiful soft silkly oil. No need to scrub, nothing harsh. Simply wash off, always leaves my skin feeling super clean, the dry flaky dullness gone. Just love it
Beautiful products will be back for more
I used to think that exfoliation was all about abrasive granules scrubbing away dead cells. That was before I used the Essential Exfoliating Gel. I just love the action of this Gel, transforming my skin into a glow that gets noticed by my daughter, on my first try. My skin feels soft and clean, and glowing!
I had to revisit this review as every time I use this I can’t believe how absolutely amazing it is.. definitely my favourite KD product.. and I have used most of them over the years. It really does do everything it says and more, in a completely gentle and non abrasive way and leaves you with a total ‘new skin’ effect which lasts into the next day. I love it!
A great product, leaves my skin feeling super soft.
I love this exfoliating cream. It is so silky and feels lovely when you massage into your face. It is not harsh but leaves your face feeling so clean and refreshed!!
Store owner replied: Thank you Siouxsie! We really appreciate your review! xx
I bought this some weeks ago from my beautician. It is really effective and easy to use. However, I have to keep it in the airing cupboard as I find it difficult to squeeze from the tube. Always a solution!
The best exfoliator i have ever used! My skin feels so soft afterwards.
Amazing. I use this once a week. Keeps my skin so hydrated and make sure I’m getting the best out of other products. Skin feels so soft after using! Only need a pea size amount so lasts forever too
I've used this for years and it's the best exfoliator I've ever used. It's a thick gel, stays on and only 5 minutes later, it's turned into a more solid oil, wash off and it leaves my skin feeling soft, looking brighter. Love it
I absolutely love this product. I have tried other exfoliators but this is by far my favourite. Despite being very gentle on the skin it does a brilliant job at removing dead skin, leaving my skin feeling soft and smooth with a healthy glow.
This is my absolute favourite KD product and I can’t praise it highly enough. I’m on my third tube (fourth if you count the mini tube I bought for travel) and it’s rare for me to be so impressed with skincare products that I continually purchase. This makes my skin glow after use. It’s not harsh or abrasive and doesn’t burn or sting like some other similar exfoliation products I’ve used in the past. Plus it smells divine. Please never discontinue this.
So easy to use , gentle on the skin but totally effective. Keeps my skin clear, glowing and ready for nourishment.
A lovely gentle product that can be used daily, if desired. Leaves your skin clean and fresh.
Store owner replied: Thanks for your review Charlotte. We don't recommend exfoliating your skin every day, twice a week is plenty. As gentle as this product is, your skin will not produce enough dead cells to need a daily treatment. You'll save a ton of product too! :-) KD XX
My skin looks younger, more glowy and fresher. The texture of the product is lovely and silky; glides over skin evenly.
You only need a small amount; I found a little goes a long way - the product comes out as a gel and as you massage gently into the skin it melts into a silky oil. I felt that my skin was really smooth. I can have a dry and spot-prone chin but this cleaned it really well, helping with both dryness and oiliness. My skin tone looked more even after using this (I normally tend to have a slightly redder chin).
Really liked this. Exfoliators often leave my face red and sore, but this one didn’t – gentle yet effective. Made a visible difference to texture, and therefore make-up application was smoother!
Love this exfoliant, no harsh beads scrubbing at your skin, a lovely oily consistency that leaves your skin feeling Radiant and smooth
Will never use a granule exfoliator again, this less my skin feeling smooth and fresh, a must have
Love it! I use it with the Exfoliating discs and it works brilliantly!
Nice and gentle! Doesn't hurt my skin
THE BEST! I was sceptical because there were no 'bits ' in the product. But I have to say this is the best exfoliator I've used. It does the best job without scratching and irritating my skin.
THE BEST Gentle on the skin, the best I've tried
GREAT PRODUCT Have been using the Exfoliating Gel everyday for a week, it makes my skin feel so fresh! Love how it turns into an oil once applied. I use with the rejuvenating system/micro cloths and I can't fault the results! Will continue to buy this product.
AMAZING One of the best exfoliaters i have used.. it is non abrasive which is perfect for my sensitive skin and it leaves my skin so soft
Beautiful I love this clever exfoliator! It is so kind to my sensitive skin and leaves it looking really bright and radiant. My skin is so soft afterwards and ready to absorb the beautiful benefits of the Katherine Daniels moisturiser. Easy to use, smells lovely and kind to the environment with no micro beads! A must-have product for everyone.
Essential Exfoliating Gel pairs perfectly with...
