Brand

Byoma

Byoma launched in 2022 as a Gen Z-targeted barrier care brand, founded on the premise that skin barrier health is the most important -- and most overlooked -- foundation of any skincare routine. The brand's name is a play on 'biome,' referencing the skin's microbiome and barrier ecosystem. Every Byoma product contains the brand's Tri-Ceramide Complex, combining ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids in ratios designed to mimic the skin's natural lipid barrier. Products are priced under $16, making barrier-repair skincare accessible to younger consumers. Byoma is sold exclusively through Target in the US and has gained significant TikTok traction.

Brand Philosophy

Byoma's thesis is that barrier health should be the first step in any skincare routine, not an afterthought. The brand educates its young audience on why barrier repair matters before selling products, using social media as an educational platform. Every product delivers the same Tri-Ceramide Complex regardless of its primary function, ensuring barrier support is built into every routine step.

Who It's For

Young consumers new to skincare who want to build a barrier-first routine without spending much. Perfect for teens and twenty-somethings dealing with compromised barriers from over-exfoliation or harsh actives.
