BYBI's Ultimate Skincare Kit is a gift set that contains a vegan oatmeal cleanser and a face spray enriched with hyaluronic acid. The set also includes an eye contour cream that gives brightness to the eyes, a moisturizer and a beauty balm suitable for face and body.

This plant-based, carbon-neutral skincare routine includes everything you need for happy, healthy, and nourished skin: cleanse, hydrate, brighten, and moisturise with BYBI's Ultimate Skincare Kit.

Milk Melt: Gentle cleanser with calming oat milk to effectively melt away dirt, grime, and make up for clear, nourished, and smooth skin. Probiotic coconut yogurt balances skin, helping to soothe redness whilst protective vitamin E promotes skin health and radiance. Skin is left thoroughly cleansed, supple, and restored.

Mega Mist: Formulated with powerhouse ingredient hyaluronic acid, Mega Mist draws moisture into the skin, leaving it plump, dewy, and refreshed. Aloe vera helps soothe skin and the addition of floral waters gently tones. The result is balanced, hydrated skin, primed for the rest of your skincare routine.

Bright-Eyed: Bright-Eyed combines brightening algae and arnica extracts with plumping hyaluronic acid and squalane to improve the appearance of dark circles and intensely hydrate the under-eye area. Amino-acid Betaine (derived from sugar beet) further hydrates, whilst protecting the eye area from free radical damage. Sustainably sourced peach mica particles counteract the appearance of dark circles, whilst adding light-reflecting luminosity, for smooth, bright eyes.

Face Base: A lightweight, everyday moisturizer that's great for all skin types and absorbs quickly to make a hydrating base for the rest of your routine. Jojoba oil leaves the skin feeling soft and supple without clogged pores, while aloe vera helps suppress irritation, reduce redness and soothe inflamed, dry or itchy skin. Vitamin E-rich grapeseed oil provides powerful antioxidants that protect the skin from free radicals while also brightening and toning.

Babe Balm: Babe Balm is your head-to-toe dry skin savior that softens and soothes any rough, sensitive patch. Shea butter and nourishing vegan fruit waxes soften and protect while calendula and hibiscus oil repair and heal. Antioxidant-rich and void of all essential oils. Babe Balm's thick texture leaves a dewy barrier of protection that soothes without drying.
Bybi Milk Melt Cleanser Review


BYBI Milk Melt Vegan Oat Milk Cleanser is a dreamy, creamy oat milk cleanser that clarifies and soothes even the most sensitive and irritated skin. A calming oat milk base gently cleanses without stripping, whilst oat kernel extract effectively lifts traces of dirt, oil, and sunscreen.

Probiotic coconut yoghurt re-balances the skin’s microbiome, helping to boost skin health, prevent breakouts and soothe redness. Feel fresh-faced (and not tight-faced!) with this gentle alternative to harsh cleansers.

How To Use :
1) Massage a pea-sized amount of Milk Melt into damp skin. 
2) Allow to lather before thoroughly rinsing with warm water. 

BYBI Milk Melt Vegan Oat Milk Cleanser Texture


Milk Melt is 30ml in size with the tube in a cheerful pop of fuchsia pink. It is said to be an unique jelly-to-milk texture that melts into the skin with a gentle lather for a soft and creamy rinse, however, to me, it is a lightweight milky texture with a coconut scent that lathers and foams very well. 

I use this as a second cleanse and have not use it to remove makeup so far. At first use, the cleanser feels mild and gentle on the skin, however, the trick is to wet your hands and face, and then massage the cleanser on damp face. 

BYBI Vegan Oat Milk Cleanser Texture


During massaging, the cleanser has turned from a lightweight milky texture to a silky consistency whilst creating a rich foam on the face. Rinse off and touch your skin. It is so soft and silky smooth. I am amazed by the surprising results. 

This Vegan Oat Milk Cleanser is ideal for those with dry skin, sensitive, irritated skin and/or acne-prone skin. Its calming properties, fragrance-free formula and natural lather make it a good alternative to harsh cleansers.

Where To Purchase : Amazon

BYBI Mega Mist Review


BYBI Mega Mist is the perfect pick me up for skin that’s feeling: stressed, tired, dull, dehydrated, dry, sensitized, irritated, oily, lacklustre or actually just totally normal but could do with a little treat. A  Hyaluronic Acid Facial Mist is refreshing, nourishes, soothes, hydrates and cools the skin.

Hydrating Vegan Facial Toner Spray is a hyaluronic acid facial mist to hydrate, soften and refresh. Hyaluronic acid face mists are an easy way to integrate this powerhouse skincare ingredient into your routine, for dewy and glowing skin, always. 

How To Use
Mega Mist may be used in replacement of a toner after cleansing, and/ or applied frequently throughout the day under or over make-up. 

This 30ml sturdy mist toner looks so alluring in pink and the medium-fine mist with a subtle floral scent is suitable to be used at any stage of the skincare routine. I usually spritz BYBI Mega Mist before my serum or before Bybi Face Base as it works well in place of a toner after cleansing and before moisturising, in both my morning and night routine.

Hyaluronic acid has heightened performance when applied to damp skin. It can also be worn under/on top of makeup for a dewy finish, or to revive skin that’s been travelling, sat in air-conditioned offices, feeling red after the gym, or looking a little dull.

I tend to use Mega Mist directly after cleansing, while my skin is still damp, before applying my serum and moisturiser. Bybi Face Base was alittle too light for hydration but add this Mega Mist just before Face Base, and my skin is instantly refreshed, sufficiently hydrated and plumped.

It never feel greasy or heavy (even on oily or acne-prone skin) but helps to keep skin hydration levels balanced while fighting against dehydrated skin, injecting moisture back into it.

Where To Purchase : Amazon

The key ingredient are....

Hyaluronic Acid : Naturally occurring in the body, but diminishing with age; HA has the ability to hold up to a thousand times its weight in water and is a humectant, meaning it attracts and holds onto moisture. Skin is left feeling hydrated, moisturized, soft, plump and pillowy. 

Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract : Provide antioxidants and anti-inflammatory, soothing benefits.

Aloe Barbadensis Leaf : Soothe skin that is feeling dry, irritated or sensitive.

Lactic Acid : One of the most hydrating Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs), Lactic Acid exfoliates the surface layers of the skin, revealing a more clarified, fresher, smoother, younger-looking complexion. Helps fight a build-up of dead skin cells and excess sebum, which can lead to skin bumps, dullness, skin congestion, blackheads, and eventually, acne. Helps diminish the look of discolorations and dark spots.

BYBI Face Base Review



BYBI Face Base is a lightweight, everyday moisturizer suitable for all skin types. It helps lock in moisture, hydrate, and calm skin all on its own, but also welcomes the addition of active serums.

Face Base helps lock in moisture, hydrate and calm skin. It uses jojoba oil and aloe vera to hydrate and soothe skin, whilst antioxidant rich grapeseed oil helps replenish the skin’s lipid barrier and provides protection from oxidative stress. Its gentle, yet effective formulation makes it an essential moisturiser, especially for those with sensitive skin.

How To Use :
Apply a pea-sized amount to cleansed skin. 

BYBI Face Base Everyday Moisturiser Texture

This Everyday Moisturiser has a very light texture that has no fragrance. It goes on light and doesn't feel greasy on the face. Mine was a 60ml pink sized tube but as the contents were pretty runny, it oozes out of the tube easily and I had to store it upright to prevent wastage each time I twist open the cap. 

When I first started using this alone, I really dislike it as it is so light, that it doesn't even hydrates my combination-dehydrated skin at all. There was a slight parched sensation after each application and the next morning, my skin was rough. 

A serum or a hydrating mist like BYBI Mega Mist is highly recommended, so that the parched sensation is gone. And since the texture of the moisturiser is so runny and light, it makes sense to pair it with a more concentrated serum without my face looking like a greasy wok in humid Singapore. 


You are also pair it with BYBI booster serums.

Where To Purchase : Amazon

The key ingredient are....

Jojoba : Moisturises the skin and leaves it feeling supple, without feeling heavy and clogging pores. It has similar compounds to our skin’s natural oils, so it not only locks in hydration, but can help counteract the overproduction of sebum for clearer skin.

Aloe Vera : Helps suppress irritation, reduce redness and soothe inflamed, dry or itchy skin, whilst also leaving it feeling plump, soft and supple.

Grapeseed Oil : Noncomedogenic and absorbs quickly. It is rich in vitamin E, linoleic acid and proanthocyanidins, powerful antioxidants that provide protection from free radicals, which help to prevent skin damage and pigmentation, whilst keeping tone even and bright.

BYBI Bright-Eyed Review

BYBI Bright-Eyed is a lightweight brightening eye cream with hyaluronic acid and arnica, to visibly plump and illuminate the delicate skin around the eye area. Light-reflecting, sustainably sourced peach mica counteracts the appearance of dark circles and shadowy lids, for refreshed and awake-looking eyes.

How To Use :
Dab a pea-sized amount of Bright Eyed into the delicate under eye area in a c-shaped motion until fully absorbed. 

BYBI Illuminating Eye Cream Texture


This Illuminating Eye Cream is a 15ml sized green tube product with the cream in light pink. It contains subtle mica powder which works to reflect light and reduce the appearance of morning eye puffiness. And because of the inclusion of mica, it is best to use it in the mornings, as what is recommended on the website, although it wasn't indicated on the box packaging. 

BYBI Illuminating Eye Cream


Bright Eye softens and moisturizes the undereye area without the tackiness. Also has a subtle brightening effect which is helpful for those battling with dark eye circles. The area feels smooth with a light oily-feel after application.

However, I don't see a significant improvement to the undereye area with prolonged usage. 

Where To Purchase : Amazon

The key ingredients are...

Arnica : Widely used to reduce bruising, swelling and discoloration, this helps to brighten under eye circles and balance uneven skin tone. 

Hyaluronic Acid, Olive, Squalane : Hydrate and firm the eye contour, helping it to appear soft and plump.

Green Algae : A powerful antioxidant that helps to stimulate collagen production and improve skin elasticity, resulting in smooth and healthy looking skin around the eyes.

BYBI Babe Balm Review

BYBI Babe Balm is a natural, vegan beauty balm and head-to-toe, dry skin saviour. Loved by beauty editors and makeup artists alike, it can be used all over to soften rough, flaky, sensitive skin.

How To Use :
Smooth onto areas of dry skin as needed. Use sparingly, a little goes a long way.

This babe balm is a 30ml tube size in the BYBI Ultimate Skincare Kit where you can apply as a spot moisturiser (or highlighter) on particularly dry spots, or ones you really want to gleam! It is great for hands, lips, cuticles, knees, elbows, heels, fading tans and rough patches. Also can be used as a facial treatment on very (very) dry skin where you apply a small amount and allow to absorb overnight. 

The thick balmy yellowish texture with no fragrance leaves a dewy sheen on the skin, so it doubles up as a super subtle highlighter for cheekbones, brows or lids, although I reckoned oily skin may not fancy this as much. 

I don't use this often since I have combination-dehydrated skin type, but when time calls for it, like dry patches, I would whip this out for use as it is thick and nourishing which takes while to be absorbed into skin.


The key ingredients are...

Shea butter and vegan fruit wax : Soften chapped, rough areas of skin and form a protective barrier to lock in moisture. Perfect for keeping lips, cuticles or hands softer for longer. 

Coenzyme Q10 and Hibiscus Oil : Rich in antioxidants to help repair damaged skin and prevent textural skin issues such as stretch marks and severe dryness. 

Calendula : Soothes and nourishes gently, making it a particularly effective way of treating very irritated and sensitive areas of skin.
