And to make it worse apparently Estée Lauder is a Trump supporting company 😞 So I am looking for an ABA replacement. I like their style of The Ordinary products where it’s mostly single or a few ingredients to customize.

Has anybody tried Inkey List products? They are a UK company. Seems like they have what I want to replace so I am going to try some. Any other suggestions?

Hiya - I've used Inkey List, and I like them. In my opinion, Inkey List do some products better than TO. I'm really pleased with their Fulvic Acid cleanser and several serums - it will just depend on your needs.

Thanks for posting this btw, I was not aware of TO being a US company. I will join you in boycotting them.

Thanks! I just came back from Sephora and purchased a kit to try and their light weight moisturizer (omega water?). Can’t wait to try and compare.

I am really torn on TO as they are still in Canada and employ Canadians. Some (?) products are made in Canada but I emailed them a while back asking about a couple of products and where they are made as they have no “made in” on the packaging. No answer. That’s pretty poor customer service and therefore I also assume they don’t make them here.

🤬 the moisturizer I bought is made in UK but the kit was sealed. I should have checked to see if they have the 3 products separately. 2 are made in USA 😤 3rd one is made in Canada. I guess The Inkey List is not an option either. Or at least not all products. 😩
