    First of all let me say, I am mid 40's, make up obsessed and never write reviews, but for me this product is great. I have oily skin with scarring from cystic acne in my teens but haven't had a...

    I initially bought this because I needed a retinoid for summer that wasn't crazy thick like my normal skincare routine, and it was on sale and geared toward oily skin so I figured it wouldn't be as...

    When I use all 5 steps of the MDT5 package, my skin absolutely glows and is clear and beautiful! And why not? It is using an acid of some type that is not harsh or irritating in every step. The...

    This review is really for the entire Somme line as I don't know which product in the line my skin hated. This product in particular was very sticky and had an unpleasant smell. I can deal with an...

    I've been using this line for almost 3 months, like in my other review for the serum, I think this might be causing my whiteheads that appear every morning. I haven't seem the results I've liked to...

    I use this product only at night (my understanding is that it's got a large concentration of Vitamin A, which isn't something those of us with very pale skin should use during the...

    I've never before written a review for a skincare product, but this Somme line is actually blowing me away. I am in my late 20's, and I have struggled with my skin for as long as I can remember...

    I am aging, I would like to prevent my skin from hitting the wall, and I have been trying product lines from mid-range-high end. This has got to be the *worst* that I've tried yet. The wash,...

    This was the most money I've ever paid for skincare and what a WASTE it turned out to be. Bought the whole line as recommended and used it religiously for 7 weeks. My acne only continued to erupt...

    This is a wonderful moisturizer for aging, acne-prone skin. It feels light, has a very slight lemony-fresh scent and doesn't clog my pores. I'm also seeing lines diminish and much better tone in my...

    This is a good moisturizer for oily and/or breakout prone skin. It sinks in quickly, has a nice (and natural!) scent, and doesn't have too many hazardous ingredients. Though it leaves a slightly...

    My facialist recommended the Somme Institute system for my acne prone (and beginning to age) skin. I used the Transport Pads, the A-Bomb and the Serum together for two weeks, morning and night. ...

    I did like this product initially. It made my skin look bright. However my skin was going through a horrible cystic acne phase where no matter what I used it would only aggrivate the problem. My...

    Looks like I'm the loner here. I tried the Somme regimen of products after a facialist recommended it to me. I braved it out for 6 weeks, praying for better skin. But, alas, my face looked...
