Where science meets sensory discovery
Bedecked with stainless steel surfaces, bright LED lighting and whirrings of glass beakers clinking against each other, the Ordinary’s first-ever pop-up in Malaysia is a skincare laboratory humming with precise chemistry. With the space carrying silky, emollient, effective products, finding a compatible solution and products for your skin just got a little easier.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Ordinary’s Pop-up in Kuala Lumpur:
Staged at APW Bangasr now until 3 August 2025, the Ordinary’s pop-up is an immersive and educational space that will be showcasing the brand’s science-led, ingredient-first philosophy to life.
Making it a sensorial journey, beauty fanatics will have the opportunity to take a closer look at the Ordinary’s beloved formulations up-close—giving you the chance to swatch and test each product directly on your skin. From the texture to the fragrance, you’ll be able to observe how it transforms and enhances your skin in real-time while learning the fascinating development stories behind each product. Expect to see bestsellers such as the Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%, Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner and their Glucoside Foaming Cleanser.
But what else can you expect here? The sensory experience also includes personalised consultation sessions, where experts can create a tailored routine fit for your skin using their signature method—be it for oily, dry or combination skin. If you need more in-depth knowledge, the pop-up is also hosting masterclasses where they’ll tackle frequently asked questions and debunk skincare myths. Spicing it up a bit, the pop-up will also include a hands-on activity where you can personalise your own lip balm charm while enjoying special purchase incentives available exclusively at the pop-up.
The best part? Staying true to The Ordinary’s core values of transparency and accessibility, this pop-up welcomes everyone with no appointment necessary—simply drop by anytime during the five-day experience.
