Make that 25,001

Developed by Canadian beauty brand Deciem, The Ordinary is a line of affordable skincare (every product costs less than £10) using effective ingredients like vitamin C, niacinimide and retinoid.

Founded by Brandon Truaxe, The Ordinary prides itself on its honesty and integrity, producing effective skincare products without the expensive price tags and claims of other more expensive beauty brands.

Matrixyl is a trademarked peptide composition developed by Sederma in France. This highly-effective composition has been shown to reduce the look of static and dynamic wrinkles.

The peptide in Matrixyl 3000 is palmitoyl-pentapeptide 35 and the peptide in Matrixyl Synthe'6 is palmitoyl tripeptide-38.

The brand are launching both a Serum Foundation and a Coverage Foundation, both of which will be available in 21 shades.

Colours has (or debatably have) arrived! All 42 of them! Colours is an evolving collection of colour formulations from The Ordinary. The offering begins with lightweight Serum Foundations and highly-pigmented Coverage Foundations with each form available in a comprehensive shade range across 21 shades. Serum Foundations are very low in viscosity and offer moderate coverage that looks natural with a very lightweight serum feel. Coverage Foundations contain higher pigment levels in a non-oily cream texture but still offer a smooth finish that avoids the heavy makeup look that can make skin appear more aged. The pigments used in both formats are treated for a rich, highly-saturated effect. These pigments are suspended in our proprietary spreadability system that allows pigments to look natural on the skin, resist collecting within fine lines and stay on for longer. Both formulations offer SPF 15 protection that's mineral-based and avoid the use of chemical sunscreens entirely. The formulations are and will be the same in all markets but the packaging will claim SPF 15 only in the European Union initially while regulatory processes for claiming SPF in other markets are carried out individually. Serum Foundations: £5.70 (UK)/$6.70 (US/CA); Coverage Foundations: £5.90 (UK)/$6.90 (US/CA). (Hint 1: it's April 1st. Hint 2: Monkeys are always late. Hint 3: It's all coming mid April because everyone wanted pumps instead of droppers and caps )

The Serum Foundation offers a medium coverage which appears very natural and lightweight on the skin, whilst the Coverage Foundation offers a heavier coverage finish, with a smooth finish to avoid that dreaded cakey look.

And it looks like this is just the start of The Ordinary’s make-up line as the brand have plans to launch individual enhancers and highlighters in the future to further customise your foundation.

The foundation will launch mid-April, but you can join the waitlist here.
