The short answer

Byoma's Hydrating Serum is an ultra-lightweight serum with a Tri-Ceramide Complex, squalane and glycerin. It's worth it if your skin feels dry or tight and you want an affordable hydration step. It's a support player, so pair it with a moisturizer.

Our Take

Why it made the edit.

Why we love it
It's simple and fragrance-free, so it fits almost any routine. The price makes it easy to use generously.
Skip it if
You want a serum with actives for dark spots or lines.
The catch
On its own it won't seal in moisture, so you still need a moisturizer on top.
