PRODUCT REVIEW: BYBI BEAUTY BAKUCHIOL BOOSTER – BEST ANTI-AGING FACE OIL WITH BAKUCHIOL

BYBI BEAUTY | BAKUCHIOL BOOSTER

This review was originally part of my blog article titled, Bakuchiol Retinol Alternative Anti-Aging Serums From The Inkey List, Herbivore & More! You can still catch the full piece here.

Up next is the Bakuchiol Booster from UK-based indie brand BYBI Beautythe simplest of the five. First, I had to Google the derivation of “BYBI” and found that it stands for By Beauty Insiders. That’s kinda cool! BYBI was founded in 2017 by “two beauty bloggers, trained formulators and skincare experts who create products based on what we want and what we know doesn’t yet exist.”

And do you know what didn’t yet exist? The BYBI Beauty Bakuchiol Booster! Comprised of just two ingredients, it’s earned its place as the simplest of the Bakuchiol products I tried.

Bakuchiol Booster contains one percent Bakuchiol and 99% Squalane. Boom! And because I love Squalane — a bio-compatible ingredient already found in our skin — I love this facial oil. It’s light, silky, nourishing, and a pleasure to use.

Like all of the brand’s products, Bakuchiol Booster is 100% natural, vegan and cruelty-free. But what I may love even more is BYBI’s genuine commitment to sustainability. They dub themselves as “sustainable skincare made in the U.K.”

The brand’s 15-product range is comprised of intriguing products like sustainably-sourced Mega Mist Hyaluronic Acid Facial Spray, a CBD Booster infused with both Hemp Seed Oil and Cannabidiol, and Babe Balm — a 100% natural, vegan multipurpose balm and an “all-round dry skin saviour”.

But I’m smitten with the BYBI Beauty Bakuchiol Booster! I love its rich, silky texture and have been using it as a facial oil, meaning I apply it in the PM as the last step in my skincare routine. I have actually used it in conjunction with a Retinol treatment — and have even paired it with the Herbivore Bakuchiol serum. Honestly, it’s the perfect opportunity to layer a Bakuchiol product into any skincare regimen!
