Well...I am pretty sure you know it is not a Korean brand but where did this confusion come from?

That's exactly what we, at Q-depot, will reveal today. 


Now, let's dive into the swirling rumours and mistaken identities surrounding the Ordinary, a brand that has caught the attention of many with its budget-friendly yet effective skincare products that are also available for wholesale at Q-depot



The Origins of "the Ordinary"

First things first, let's trace the origins of this beloved brand. this not so Ordinary brand was born in the vibrant city of Toronto, Canada, under the umbrella of DECIEM, a Canadian company founded by the visionary Brandon Truaxe. Their mission? To turn the skincare industry upside down with their no-frills products packed with powerhouse ingredients. Transparency, affordability, and scientific wizardry quickly won them a legion of devoted fans.



Korean Version: Fake or Fabulous?

Let's address the elephant in the room. Is the Korean version of The Ordinary fake? 

Absolutely not! What really happened was that due to the weaker Korean won, which made The Ordinary prices in Korea incredibly attractive. Seizing this opportunity, Korean wholesale distributors went full throttle and launched targeted marketing campaigns to promote the brand to local consumers. This resulted in two things. 

  1. Firstly, to better serve Korean consumers, the Ordinary introduced Korean-language packaging and labeling for their products in Korea.
  2. Secondly, the Korean distributor unleashed a whirlwind marketing extravaganza that reached even the farthest corners of the Earth:

inadvertently fuelling the confusion that the Ordinary might actually be a Korean brand.


Another Confusion:

Another confusion around the Korean version of "the Ordinary" is that sometime people confuse Korean with Chinese and assume that it is a fake Chinese made version. Know the difference people, they are completely different languages. 





Why English Packaging is Preferred Globally?


English packaging of the Ordinary: Multi-Peptide + HA Serum


There actualy is only one reason with perhaps two sides to it. The reason is same. Just as the Korean public couldn't understand English, the rest of the world can't understand Korean.

So, the customs department around the world do not let the Korean version pass through because they do not understand what it says on the packaging like you just wont understand this: 왜 사람들이 말을 안듣지 하하하 . (Don't translate it)

That's not it, even if the customs could let it pass through, your retail customer would not understand what it says on the packaging and they would be reluctant to use the product. Thats where Q-depot comes to your rescue.
