Name: Kate Somerville
Occupation: facialist to the stars
Shop: Marie Mason Apothecary, Los Angeles
For a non-makeup person, aesthetician Kate Somerville has some definite opinions about cosmetics. "I like the look of fresh, radiant skin - not covering up everything," she says, Somerville is justly famous for the glowing complexions her clients emerge with after a facial at her turquoise-and-lime-accented medi-spa. "I combine medical-grade technology with serious pampering," she says. Her product line works within the same principles: "Serious but glamorous!" she says. At the bright, airy Marie Mason Apothecary in Los Angeles, Somerville shopped for her favorite items in other lines - from the low-key makeup look she favors to some incredibly great scents. -Marlien Rentmeester
