This Kate Somerville Deep Tissue Repair Cream with Peptide K8 caught my eye this morning not because of its age-defying qualities or the namesake peptide (K8, get it? Ha.) that claims to help restore elasticity and promote cell regeneration; I took notice because of the FIVE HUNDRED DOLLAR luxury size jar.

I’m the first to admit I love Kate Somerville products (I once had a facial at her Los Angeles clinic that changed my life!) especially the Gentle Daily Wash, but $500? My husband would kill me.
