Photo reviews
Photos and experiences shared by contributors. Read below how we check submissions.
How reviews and confirmations work
We ask contributors to share a photo they took and their own experience. Reviews go through automated checks. Flagged reviews can be assessed manually. Approval is not a guarantee that a photo is unedited or free of AI generation.
- Email address confirmed means the link sent to that address was used. It does not prove a purchase or the identity of a person.
- Company management confirmed relates to access to this company page. A paid plan does not verify individual reviews.
- A review invitation does not independently prove a purchase. An order reference supplied by a company is not independent purchase verification either.
- Publishing a photo with a review does not automatically permit reuse in marketing. A subscription does not grant that permission either.

Mother Science positions itself in the premium clinical skincare segment, targeting consumers who are looking for evidence-based solutions to dark spots, sun damage, and signs of aging. The brand was founded by musician Mike Einziger and biologist Ann Marie Simpson-Einziger, whose personal experience with a skin condition directly inspired six years of scientific research into Malassezin. Products are formulated to meet European Union safety and efficacy standards, are vegan and cruelty-free, and are free from hydroquinone, synthetic fragrances, parabens, and over a dozen other commonly avoided ingredients. The typical customer is someone who has moved past trend-driven skincare and wants clinically tested, ingredient-focused products with measurable results.

What others ask about Mother Science
Answers to the most common questions, based on search behaviour and our own research.
Is Mother Science a trustworthy webshop?
Mother Science is operated by Small Molecules Inc. and sells clinically tested skincare products. The brand backs its claims with two clinical studies across 38 participants using instrumentation, VISIA photography, and expert grading, which adds a degree of transparency that many skincare brands do not offer.
Does Mother Science offer free shipping?
Yes, Mother Science offers free standard shipping on orders over $75 within the continental United States. The brand currently only ships to the US.
What makes Malassezin different from other skincare ingredients?
Malassezin is a naturally occurring molecule found on skin that Mother Science describes as ten times more powerful as an antioxidant than vitamin C. It was discovered after co-founder Ann Marie Simpson-Einziger noticed natural skin lightening caused by a skin condition, prompting six years of research to develop it into a usable skincare ingredient.
Are Mother Science products safe for sensitive skin?
According to the brand's clinical study results, 100% of participants reported that the product did not irritate their skin after 12 weeks of use. The products are also formulated without hydroquinone, synthetic fragrances, parabens, sulfates, and several other commonly irritating ingredients.
