A beauty package arrived at my sister’s doorstep last week. A big, white box addressed to me. Inside it are more white boxes with colourful dots on them. Apparently it’s the complete skincare system of Somme Institute. Quite intriguing, I must say.
I couldn’t help laughing a little at the colourful dots on the boxes. They exude a youthful (close to child-like, if I may add) appeal. Even my niece was fascinated with the white boxes with colourful dots, perhaps thinking that they were toy blocks of some sort. Opening them made me grin more cuz the actual product packaging mirror the boxes!
Quickly going over what’s included in the skincare system that are up for review: The Somme Institute 5-Step Cosmeceuticals.
Step 1. Nourishing Cleanser
Step 2. Transport
Step 3. Serum
Step 4. A-Bomb
Step 5. Double Defense
But it doesn’t stop there. The package also includes to special skincare products that’s part of the line.
They are the EYE and NECKLINE, both are new additions to the Somme Institute skincare regimen.
I know I’m currently using BIODROGA (both at night and in the mornings right now) so it may take some time before I’d get around to trying these babies out. But there’s a possibility I can squeeze it in by using it in the mornings. We’ll see. Using seven (7) products in the morning will eat up a lot of prep time so I will have to think about that. It’s good to know, though, that this skincare set from Somme Institute can be used in the mornings or in the evenings (or both!). Looking forward to it actually. Let’s see if it’ll impress me the way BIODROGA did. Stay tuned for the full review of the products.

Hi Sasha! Are the Somme Institute products available locally?
By locally, you mean Manila (Philippines), then no unfortunately. This package came from the US (sent here in Australia). More on Somme Institute as soon as I finish writing the review. Thanks!
