BYOMA Clarifying Serum for Acne-Prone Skin — 1.01 fl oz, Barrier Repair with Tri-Ceramide, PHA & Blue Tansy

BYOMA Clarifying Serum is a lightweight, non-irritating facial serum that calms blemish-prone skin while reinforcing the skin barrier with a tri-ceramide complex, blue tansy, PHA, and zinc.

This serum blends barrier-repair ingredients and gentle clarifying actives designed for skin that is prone to spots, oiliness, and congestion. Rather than stripping skin, the formula supports lipid repair with ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids while using mild exfoliants and anti-inflammatory botanicals to reduce breakouts and surface buildup. It’s alcohol- and fragrance-free, vegan and cruelty-free, formulated to be compatible with sensitive or reactive complexions.

How does this serum strengthen a weakened skin barrier?

BYOMA’s Tri-Ceramide Complex supplies skin with ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids — the same lipids naturally found in the stratum corneum — to help replenish and support the barrier. A healthier barrier locks in moisture, reduces trans-epidermal water loss, and lowers the chance of irritation from external triggers.

• Tri-Ceramide Complex mimics skin’s natural lipids for repair and resilience
• Supports moisture retention and helps prevent sensitivity flare-ups
• Designed to be non-stripping and compatible with daily use

Will this serum help clear and calm blemish-prone skin without overdrying?

The formula pairs gentle chemical exfoliation with calming ingredients so it targets congestion while protecting hydration. PHA provides mild exfoliation that’s less irritating than stronger acids, zinc helps control oil and supports skin clarity, and blue tansy reduces redness and soothes inflammation.

• PHA (polyhydroxy acid) gently exfoliates dead skin and unclogs pores
• Zinc helps regulate sebum production and reduce shine
• Blue tansy delivers antioxidant and calming benefits to reduce visible redness

Is this serum suitable for sensitive or reactive skin types?

Yes. The serum is formulated without alcohol and fragrance, is dermatologist tested, and designed to be non-comedogenic. Because it focuses on barrier repair and uses milder exfoliation, it’s often better tolerated than aggressive spot treatments.

• Alcohol-free and fragrance-free to minimize irritation risk
• Dermatologist tested and non-comedogenic for acne-prone skin
• Vegan and cruelty-free, suitable for many skin routines

How should I incorporate this into my daily skincare routine?

Use the serum after cleansing and toning but before heavier creams or oils. Apply a few drops to clean skin once or twice daily as tolerated, and follow with sunscreen in the morning to protect new surface cells after exfoliation.

• Apply to cleansed skin; follow with moisturizer to seal in benefits
• Use morning and/or evening depending on tolerability and routine
• Always pair with SPF during daytime to protect exfoliated skin

Who is this for: BYOMA Clarifying Serum is intended for people with combination to oily, spot-prone, or sensitive skin who want a balanced approach to clearing breakouts without sacrificing the skin barrier. It’s a good fit for anyone who has previously found stronger exfoliants too drying or who prioritizes gentle, science-backed formulations that combine calming botanicals with barrier-supporting lipids.
