BYOMA announced its second annual Skin Barrier Awareness Month with a campaign called Your Skin Barrier Needs You, and a 30-day skin barrier reset challenge.
People often damage their skin's natural line of defense by over-treating skin with harsh exfoliants, using too many active ingredients at once, or ignoring individual sensitivities, and BYOMA is on a mission to improve worldwide skin barrier health with education, and gentle yet effective products that are age-appropriate. "We have seen that kids as young as 10-year-old are using retinols, acids, and other clinical-strength products that are simply not suitable for their skin," said BYOMA founder Marc Elrick, "As a brand, we feel a deep sense of responsibility to help address these concerns and take beauty in a more responsible direction."
While the statement-making out-of-home and digital out-of-home campaign provides an up-close look at skin, the 30-Day Skin Barrier Reset invites people to set aside their exfoliators for a month.
