Their foundations are great for the price, great coverage!! At the end of the day my face wasn't oily at all.

Deciem has just released a whole whack of new products; the Re-pigment Serum, a bunch of new retinol/oids and a Ferulic Acid

[bonafide11]

Wowza! I'm still trying to get through trying the original Ordinary products. LOL Hope they can keep up with the demand. It's great they're doing variations of formulas for retinols.

An explanation of Abnomaly

[michelleshops]

This is intriguing but Brandon has some serious Crazy Eyes going on.  

[bonafide11]

Hmm...this is kinda cool and fits in quite well with their company ethos. Good way for them to test random product concepts and if it's well received, they can make it permanent. I don't know I'd sign up right off the bat though without more info on the types of products (skincare, hair care, makeup, supplements??). It could be a great box or a box of crap you'd never use!

[JenniferOhJenny]

This is bothering me because I keep reading it as a typo of anomaly. Which maybe is the point, but still.

[k617]

So basically random products that don't fit with the line of any existing brand?

They have so many products already, I can't imagine what they can come up with...!

[Mochapj]

Swatch and review had a post about some new Deciem stuff coming [and another new brand - Esho] I'm particularly intrigued by the RePigment serum

[niki172]

While interested with the hyper pigmentation product (and the rest who am I kidding?) $70 is a bit steep for a product I'm assuming I can't return (I order from Beautylish). Can't wait for reviews!

[sarahshter]

I am very intrigued with this new product.  I definitely could use more help with my hyperpigentation.  I feel like I've tried everything with so so results.  Arbutin, hydroquinine, licorice, Vitamin c, Retinol, etc.  This couldn't hurt that's for sure! 

[veronika23]

Thanks. Updated the OP. 🙂

[Mochapj]

Abnomaly?

[mrsbaine]

I just saw this on IG and it feels so different than their packaging.

[malday]

Okay I'm still super confused about it all but is Abnomaly a new Deciem line or?

[malday]

@Mochapj hmmmmmm 

[Mochapj]

@malday my understanding is it's another line within Deciem. Ive seen quite a few comments speculating that it's skincare for kids... 🤷🏽‍♀️

[jeannie11]

I passed by one of the DECIEM stores yesterday and it wasn't open.  The woman inside pointed to the door that showed they open at 11 am. Is that not late for a store to open!  lol

[BellaLori]

I have been using some of The Ordinary products for a few months now. I like the matrixyl and hyaluronic acid serums so far. I tried the argireline and i think it gave me headaches, i have the lactic acid 10% serum but I haven't tried it yet.

New product - Vitamin C Suspension 30% in Silicone

Say hello to Vitamin C Suspension 30% in Silicone, our new offering to join the very big family of Vitamin C solutions from The Ordinary. This stable formula uses very lightweight silicones to offer a smooth skin feel and to avoid the short-lived gritty texture of stable Vitamin C suspension systems that some find undesirable. This formula is very strong and almost always causes a stinging sensation during initial periods of use, but can be diluted on each application with serums or creams to reduce this stinging while skin builds tolerance. (30ml US/CA$6.80, £5.80).

Oh.. and it goes without saying that the formula contains no water as water always causes Vitamin C to oxidize regardless of how a formulation is packaged or stored, resulting in an ongoing change in colour toward orange. Water, without exception, causes Vitamin C to degrade and changes its potential from an anti-oxidant to a pro-oxidant. Some brands add orange-coloured ingredients to their formulations to mask the appearance of Vitamin C oxidation. If you see any signs of orange (or, in short, if you see pure Ascorbic Acid and water together in a formula), run as fast and as far away as you can.
