Drugstore skincare brands like The Ordinary are making a wave in the industry, all thanks to the viral TikTok videos.

Teens and young adults are veering away from some cult-favorite brands and exploring brands that offer low-cost skincare.

Launched in 2016 by DECIEM, at the time, The Ordinary product features twenty-seven products, showcasing its "cutting-edge science with modest price points." Through the years, it caters to an evolving collection of skincare treatments that embodies "effective clinical technologies."

According to Forbes, retail analyst Heather Ibberson of Edited explained that modern beauty brand's main driver is giving its consumers affordable products.

"Combined with effective and high-quality ingredients, drugstore skincare has become increasingly popular in the past year," she furthered.

In addition, Ibberson also highlighted the effects of social media and the global pandemic, giving people more time to discover new products out in the market.

Chief executive officer and co-founder of The Ordinary's parent company Deciem, Nicola Kilner, admitted that there was an increase in their sales, mainly the Vitamin C product.

Following this, social media platforms like TikTok and YouTube contributed to the rise of drugstore skincare in hopes of achieving clear and younger-looking skin without hurting your budget.
