Beauty Bible Weekend Steal: BYOMA Barrier Building Essentials kit

Baby, it’s cold outside. And that ain’t good news for skin.

Personally, we’ve got the central heating ramped up as high as budgets will allow. Then we step outside, we’re assaulted by freezing winds. Both factors which rank high on the list of skin’s enemies, as they can affect the all-important barrier function, a key factor in skin health as poor function can lead to dry skin (with moisture escaping more easily), while making it more vulnerable to damage. Beyond that, so, so many skin products nowadays seek to brighten by stripping away the top protective layers of skin – and that’s lousy for barrier function, too.

BYOMA is an affordable British brand that has made it its mission to educate us about this – and they’ve put together a fantastic kit which (at just £18) would work as an intro, or could be gifted to a friend. In the kit, you’ll find several hero products from the range: BYOMA Creamy Jelly Cleanser (30ml), BYOMA Hydrating Serum (15ml), BYOMA De-Puff + Brighten Eye Gel (5ml), BYOMA Moisturising Gel Cream (15ml) and BYOMA Moisturising Rich Cream (15ml), which is fabulous for really parched skin. Packaging is stylish, feels great to the touch – and of course, we love the colour of the bag…!

The one bit of bad news? Annoyingly, this went out of stock online just before we went live with this Weekend Steal – but you can still follow the buy here link below to see if it’s available in a Boots store near you.
