23% OFF ALL THE BRANDS IN THE SLOWVEMBER SALE
It´s Actually Slowvember, Not Black Friday
What is Slowvember & The Ordinary Black Friday Sale? Well, actually, The Ordinary does something called “Slowvember”, which means throughout the month of November, you can shop slowly and mindfully from 1st to 31st November. On Black Friday itself, which is towards the end of November, The Ordinary and all other Deciem brands close their doors and website. Yes, they completely turn off the websites for 24 hours. Deciem is actually “anti-black Friday”.
The Ordinary Black Friday Sale 2024
The whole point about SLOWVEMBER is to make thoughtful and mindful purchases. Make a list of the products you want to try and your everyday favourites. You have a whole month to shop slowly, although there is always the possibility of items selling out. Don´t forget about the new Body Care by The Ordinary.
Products you always need
Cleansers, toners, and moisturisers are products you use daily, so consider stocking up on these. Then, consider masques, serums, and actives. Be careful buying too many masques—will you have time to use them all? Acids, Retinoids, and Direct Vitamin C all have conflicts, so make sure you´re aware of these before you buy them.
My products are out of stock!
Sign up for notifications! You will be notified as soon as the product comes back in stock. You need to be quick, though! I would consider setting emails from “The Ordinary” as an alert on your email.

Teasers leading up to Black Friday
Deciem | The Ordinary | NIOD Black Friday 2021
A month of 23% off where you can shop at your own pace. If you have missed the Black Friday Sale, don´t panic because you may find some discount codes here.
Slowvember Industry disruptor DECIEM is paving the way for a more sustainable Black Friday with the launch of its Anti-Black Friday Campaign. DECIEM will be offering its month-long 23% discount to encourage conscious consumption and considered purchases over a period that traditionally celebrates impulse purchasing.
DECIEM’s month-long discount offers a human approach to discounting. Consumers will be encouraged to partake in a month of soothing and relaxing experiences across all channels via calm activations in-store and across DECIEM’s online presence. Slowvember welcomes back DECIEM’s month-long discount period, allowing its audience to slow down and take the time to make educated purchasing decisions.
On a day traditionally known as Black Friday, DECIEM will celebrate connections over clicks with its website and stores closed. However, after a year of reduced human interaction, DECIEM has decided to keep some of its global retail locations open but offer them as a place where shoppers can take a moment to relax, experience live music, local refreshments, and take part in musical and artistic workshops. Customers will not be able to purchase products on Black Friday.
A quick run-down Slowvember, 2021
- The sale has started but not without some issues. 23% discount was available to Australia, the UK and Europe but not to the US, Canada or New Zealand. I thought once all the time zones were on 1st November, it would change, but New Zealand is ahead, so I thought it may be a glitch. Last year, the Black Friday sale started worldwide at 9am (EDT). As soon as it was 9 a.m. (EDT) today, Black Friday was finally available to everyone.
- At 9 a.m. (EDT) the USA, Canada and New Zealand finally had access to Black Friday.
- Many people had issues not being able to access their payment page, but these were resolved.
- If you haven’t ordered anything on the new website since March, you need to reset your password.
- Sign up for notifications when products are out of stock. Last year they did restock numerous products.
- CAIL was already out of stock.
- MAP Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate is still being reformulated.
- The Ordinary Salicylic Acid is still being reformulated.
- The Ordinary Alpha Lipoic Acid is still being reformulated.
- Canada had no NIOD CAIL, MG or SDSM after a few hours.
- November 3rd, NIOD MG & SDSM came back in stock for some countries.
Declined Orders / Problems Ordering on the Deciem website
Quite a few people say they cannot order on the Deciem website, it is a nightmare! Try some of the following;
- Log in
- Clear history/cookies
- Try ordering via different devices
- Credit Cards / Pay Pal – try different ways to pay
- If the billing address is in a different country than the shipping, that could cause an issue
- Address – if the system doesn´t recognise your address, this could cause a problem
- If you have tried everything and it still says your order is declined, you may have tripped something on their website, like a fraud alert. You would need to contact Deciem to check your account.
The Ordinary & NIOD Black Friday 2020
At 2pm UK time, 9am Canadian time, the Deciem Black Friday Sale 2020 went LIVE! 23% off EVERYTHING, including The Ordinary, now until the end of the month.
What a year 2020 has been. A Deciem Black Friday Sale is just what we needed to cheer us all up. It’s a repeat of last year’s Black Friday, which lasts the whole month of November, although this year it’s called “KNOWvember” where Deciem will be sharing videos and all their knowledge about skincare so we can learn and make the right choices.
Deciem Black Friday 2020 – the lowdown
- Day 1 The overall response to the sale was really good, with the #deciemaddicts going crazy in the Chat Room, although there were a lot of products out of stock. 89% of the #deciemaddicts said they prefer 23% off everything to the box sets. It´s great as it gives everyone with all budgets a chance to buy.

Some Deciem Black Friday Tips
- If you’re using a credit card, remember that the card must be registered to the address where the products are being shipped.
- PAYPAL—Paypal is really the quickest and easiest way to pay, and it avoids the problems with credit cards above.
- Always check the amount leaving your bank because people have often been charged twice. Deciem did a refund!
- If your basket empties, refresh clear cookies, try another browser, or use another device. You could also try private browsing.
- The Ordinary is affordable all year round, but if you know the products you love, grab a couple of each. It´s a great time to try products from other brands like NIOD, Hylamide and The Chemistry Brand. Remember that NIOD should be used within 6 months of opening.
- Be careful when stocking up on Copper Peptide products. We have found that if you keep these too long, the colour turns black. Don´t open them all at once when you receive them.
- Make a list of products you would love to try after reading reviews in the Facebook Group.
The Ordinary & NIOD Black Friday Sale 2019
On November 1st, 2019, Deciem went live with its Black Friday Sale. I was told by Deciem that it would be different from previous years, but this was quite a surprise. Deciem gave 23% off absolutely everything for the whole month of November, including The Ordinary. They closed on Black Friday itself, which you can read about below.
While the sale was on, the notifications for when a product was back in stock were removed. This was rather annoying because many products were out of stock. Many people wanted to try the new NIOD CAIL at a discounted rate.
Some of the Deciem Addicts were really happy, and some were somewhat disappointed, as Black Friday is when many try other brands like NIOD at incredible prices. Overall, the majority enjoyed it, with 89% of Deciem Addicts on Instagram voting for
This is what Deciem say about the new Black Friday Sale.
DECIEM is closing all stores and its website on 29 November as it no longer feels comfortable being involved in a single day so heavily focused on hyper-consumerism. We do not feel that Black Friday is an earth-friendly or consumer-friendly event as it encourages excessive purchasing of items that consumers might not necessarily purchase if things weren’t discounted.
As hyper-consumerism poses one of the biggest threats to the planet through rush decisions due to the fear of items selling out, DECIEM no longer wants to be part of rushing purchasing decisions, which was unintentionally created in previous years with products selling out before Black Friday even began.
Instead, we’re offering a site-wide discount of 23% starting today at noon and running throughout the whole of November (excluding the 29th, when stores/websites will close) to encourage more considered purchases. The discount will be valid across the entire DECIEM portfolio, including The Ordinary—something that is almost never discounted due to the pricing already being so fair and affordable. This will hopefully encourage customers to shop slowly and to make educated, mindful decisions based on what their skincare regimen should be.
The Ordinary & NIOD Black Friday Sale 2018
When did the Deciem Black Friday Sale 2018 start?
The 2018 Deciem Black Friday sale went live on Thursday, November 22nd, 2018, at 10 a.m. (UK) and sold out before Black Friday had even started. In fact, most of the products sold out before Canada and America woke up, which didn’t go down too well.
Did the Deciem site go down at all?
This year, it didn’t go down, but there were people with payment issues. In 2017, Deciem was offline for around seven hours.
Deciem Payment Issues
The problem with the Deciem website is that the card you are paying with must be registered at the address you’re shipping to. Avoid all this agro by paying on Pay Pal.
How long did the stock last?
Well, there were 16 items. By around 3 p.m. (GMT), many products were sold out, and then a few came back in stock. By the morning of Black Friday, 23rd November, only 3 Ordinary products were in stock.
What was on sale for Deciem Black Friday, 2018?
This year, Deciem decided to sell 16 single products at incredible prices rather than the boxes. It was a challenging year, and I’m not sure they had the time to assemble the boxes, so we had singles. Surprisingly, though, people really liked having singles rather than the boxes.
Here’s what was on offer in the Deciem Black Friday Sale 2018.
- Multi-Molecular Hyaluronic Complex MMHC2, 15ml, £10 (Normal price: £25)
- Photography Fluid, Opacity 8%, 30ml, £5 (Normal price: £21)

The Stars of the Deciem Black Friday Sale
For me, the star of this Black Friday sale was the NIOD LVCE, which is a fantastic cleanser and was on sale for just £10 (usually £30). All I can say is if you have an opportunity to try this at a fantastic price, grab it! It cleans skin amazingly, removes some of the toughest mascaras and sun cream without the need to rub hard, and leaves skin feeling incredibly hydrated. I find my products go on really well afterwards.
NIOD MMHC2
Another star of the sale was NIOD MMHC2, Hyaluronic Acid. This glides onto your skin, feels amazing, plumps, and hydrates. It usually costs £ 25 but was on sale for just £10. You can often find discounts on NIOD of up to 25% on the Deciem Discounts page.
The Deciem Black Friday Sale in 2017
When did the Deciem Black Friday Sale start in 2017
I was just about to leave the office when, at around 3pm, I received a call from Deciem. They said the Black Friday sale was going LIVE in an hour at 4pm (GMT) Thursday 23rd November. After a minor technical glitch, the sale started at around 4.20pm.
What was in the Deciem Black Friday Sale 2017?
This year, many Deciem sets and a few single products were on sale at amazing prices. I remember everyone going crazy for the NIOD SS Sanskrit Saponins, which were just £9 hidden down the bottom.
Did the Deciem website go down?
Everything seemed to be going well until about 6 a.m. (GMT), when the Deciem website went down for around 7 hours! I assume they had to wait until the tech department in Canada woke up to repair it. Finally, they were back online at about 1 p.m. (GMT).
Deciem Payment Issue
As previously mentioned, there were some payment issues, and many people, including me, were charged twice. Deciem was really good and refunded the money straight away. If you have problems, try chatting with Deciem on LIVE CHAT.
The Ordinary Cyber Monday
The Ordinary has the SLOVEMBER sale throughout November and doesn´t do Cyber Monday. However, everything will still be 23% off.
NIOD Cyber Monday
NIOD is also in the SLOWVEMBER sale which runs through November so there isn´t a Cyber Monday sale. You can still get 23% off everything through November until 30th November 2023 23:59EST.
