After quite a scare over the past week-plus, it looks like Deciem and The Ordinary are officially back in business.
It was looking very touch and go for a moment there: Former CEO Brandon Truaxe first announced that The Ordinary would be shutting down operations in a video on Instagram. Following the video, Estee Lauder (28 percent minority owner of Deciem) filed an injunction against Truaxe, which was later granted; effectively removing him and promoting his co-CEO Nicola Kilner to sole CEO.
Now, after the big shake up, it's looking like Deciem and The Ordinary are already getting back on track. "Following the court ruling on Friday we have now reopened all stores, offices, factories and warehouses," wrote the brand in a statement posted to Instagram.
And even amidst all the drama, Deciem still gives Truaxe his due in its statement: "Brandon will always be the founder of DECIEM. We will take the passion and values he has instilled within us as we continue to grow the brands we have created with transparency, integrity, authenticity, function and design."
