Two brands

known for their

ingredients-focused,

transparently priced

approach to skincare

are now even easier for

customers to get their hands on.

The Ordinary, which previously only had five

London bricks-and-mortar shops, is rolling out on

to boots.com and a handful of Boots stores outside of the capital,

while The Inkey List is now available at Selfridges’

London and Manchester stores (plus its website).

clear of serums, primers, de-frizzers

and texturisers and replace them

faces, she has now launched the secret

to her trademark “sublime skin”: a

hydrating, gel-cream primer (“fine-tuning

for the face,” says Pat), a long-wearing,

serum-soft foundation in 36 shades and

a setting powder, so featherlight you

can even layer other textures over the

top (from £50; Selfridges).
