Just wanted to say I got my bumf through the post today and loved the products! who else has tried them and liked/disliked them?

I am used to using dermalogica which in my humble opinion is a pretty tough act to follow - but I think I may have just found it!

I have to say I really liked the Acdemie range. May have to wait a bit until I buy into it.

I only emailed them yesterday, I thought they were fast! I am a little dissapointed that I have to go on a 3 day course before I can buy their stuff though, but I suppose it's to be expected, it's just 3 days seems a little excessive, nevermind! nice stuff tho!

Im quite suprised you think three days is excessive. Most of the top ranges have training for at least five days and imo three days is not enough for academie, it is a massive range and when i did the training I couldn't believe it was so short as every facial is totally different and there are soooooooooooo many products to learn. Its one of the biggest ranges I have ever worked with yet the shortest training (which always finished VERY early)

I have to agree. I only did Acadayspa and that was two days and was still pretty rushed. How on earth they think they can fit the whole range into 3 days is beyond me!

I absolutely lurve the products, skin felt wonderful after using testers......I didn't find the info that helpful though, it seemed to be all adverts?

Scared of the no support thing with academie!

Training time I would say is prob too short for the amount they have?
