BYBI Beauty Is The Brand You And The Planet Need Right Now

By Markey Battle

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t love a good toner, and I think I’ve found the best one out there.

I was recently gifted the Day Glow toner from BYBI and fell in love.

All of BYBI’s products are vegan and cruelty-free. If you want a skincare brand that cares about the environment as much as it cares about your face, this is the one. The toner also feels better than other toners I’ve used. While many feel harsh on my skin, BYBI’s Day Glow feels rich and hydrates and calms the skin while cleansing it.

BYBI’s Mission

I always like to shop consciously and make sure I’m investing in brands that are committed to bettering the world’s future, and BYBI is no exception.

From their packaging to the ingredients, every detail of BYBI’s brand is geared toward being environmentally conscious.

The box proclaims one of the brand’s mission statements: “100% vegan active ingredients that impact skin, not planet” and they’ve stuck to that promise. But what BYBI sacrifices in fast production, plastic, and ease aren’t apparent. The products all come in vibrant colors, beautiful packaging, and easy-to-read scripts. My toner’s bottle is made from sugarcane and is recyclable!

BYBI makes everything they produce vegan, boasting plant-powered natural skincare, climate-conscious decisions, and cruelty-free testing.

BYBI began in co-founders Elsie and Dominika’s kitchen when they were creating all-natural DIY beauty recipes together. From home-grown ingredients to, now, a skincare brand for all, their natural roots were never forgotten. Since their beginning in 2017, the two have become published authors, trained skincare formulators, podcast hosts, and the creators of this very successful business.

BYBI has always been about utilizing natural ingredients in every beneficial way possible and creating a skin-positive pro-planet beauty.

The Toner

The toner itself has lactic acid (one of my favorite skincare ingredients), which helps the toner exfoliate the skin, leading to a brighter complexion. It also contains Reishi and Shiitake mushrooms, which help to refine the skin’s tone and leave it smooth instead of irritated. Finally, it has melissa floral water to refresh and hydrate the skin (and make the toner smell great). The melissa floral water is also special in that it’s upcycled. The water is a byproduct of the essential oil production, meaning that BYBI doesn’t have to use a secondary supply chain in order to utilize the flowers’ water.

There are obviously more ingredients, but this powerful trio ensures that your skin will transform after you try the toner.

It’s suggested that you use the toner every day, especially if you want to add more shine to your face and skin. While many toners strip your skin of their needed nutrients, the Day Glow’s protective ingredients calm, soothe, and hydrate your skin while extracting the dirt from your pores.

I’m a sucker for a toner, but I usually go overboard and damage my skin. The Day Glow prevents damage with its rich formula and texture. It also doesn’t feel as watery as other toners.

If you’re like me and have overused toners in the past hoping for a balanced skin tone or are always on the search for a climate-conscious beauty choice, this toner and all of BYBI’s other products are the perfect fit for you.
