Your skin barrier is your first line of defense - and it’s counting on you. As the body’s largest organ, your skin deserves care that protects. Too often, we overdo it: harsh scrubs and stripping actives.
This June, we’re calling on you to be the hero of your skin barrier. Ditch the damage and boost with BYOMA - because healthy skin starts with a stronger barrier.
The skin barrier serves as a literal barrier between your body and outside world. It helps keep your skin healthy by preventing water from leaving and harmful aggressors from entering your skin– think of it as a brick and mortar structure, your cells are the bricks, and your lipids are the mortar that binds it together. It is made up of ceramides, cholesterol and fatty acids– which keep it functioning at its best.

We can damage our skin barrier through excessive skincare, harsh weather, sun, pollution, etc. – and this means the ceramide, cholesterol + fatty acid levels drop down to lower than they were before. This leads to unpleasant symptoms like dryness, irritation, blemishes, and skin sensitivity.
We discovered incredible research showing how a ceramide dominant ratio helps your skin barrier recover faster. By using 3 parts ceramides, 1 part Cholesterol and 1 part fatty acids – those elements I mentioned earlier that occur naturally within your skin. You’re basically feeding your skin with what it produces naturally. After a lot of research, this led us to Korea to the source of what is now our Tri-Ceramide Complex. You will find a barrier building complex in every single BYOMA formula, so no matter if you’re using a cleanser, a toner, a treatment, a moisturizer or an SPF– you will get amazing barrier building benefits.
