BYBI Babe Balm and Prime Time Facial Polish

BYBI Beauty, which stands for By Beauty Insiders are a new brand to me and one which I have enjoyed getting to know. BYBI Beauty is a 100% natural skincare from the founders of Clean Beauty Co and no only are they Cruelty -free and vegan but they are also microbead-free.

What I really like about BYBI aside from the products is that they put real focus on using natural extracts from plants, nuts, flowers and seeds as opposed to using synthetic chemicals or ingredients in their formulations. 
To Celebrate the relaunch of Babe Balm and Prime Time in biodegradable tubes, we have put together a beauty Eco-pack to make sure that whilst we're looking glam we're also behaving sustainably. The beauty industry contributes a huge amount of plastic waste and we're keen to change that! Everything in this package is 100% biodegradable or recyclable and full of good Eco vibes. Our tubes are made of sugar cane, and while they look like plastic, they definitely aren't.
So, having just re-launched two of their cult products the Babe Balm and Priming Facial Polish, I was sent them to try and having read that they have also just switched from jars to biodegradable tubes this is something I think we will be seeing more of.

Prime Time Facial Polish is quite unlike anything else I have tried.  With a really thick gel like consistency it does feel slightly tacky when applied but that feeling doesn't last for too long because once it comes into contact with water, it softens slightly and because this amazing creamy scrub. The Scrub particles are jojoba beads which make for a great alternative to Microbeads and for me, I find a much gentler option for my skin as well as for the environment.

If you have dry skin or even dry patches of skin on your face, one of my main bug bears, then Prime Time is your best friend and it smells just incredible as it packed full of allantoin, apple and pineapple acids for a gentle and smoothing polish that removes dead and dry skin cells to leave your skin looking radiant and feeling soft and smooth to the touch.

Babe Balm is a multipurpose beauty balm that can be used as a highlighter, moisturiser or cleanser not to mention a cuticle oil, lip balm and it is perfect for using on the dry skin of your elbows, knees, hands and feet.

Using ingredients such as Kokum butter, Monoi, Squalene, Hibiscus and Calendula all of which hydrates, softens and smoothes and it works alongside the balm’s hero ingredient Coenzyme Q10. On the skin, this balm has a slight peachy colour to it thanks to the inclusion of pink sweet potato extract which is kind of kooky.  On the skin, the texture is quite similar to Elizabeth Arden's 8 Hour Cream but with one slight difference, as soon as you begin to massage onto and into the skin it absorbs much quicker and I am glad to say that there is no greasy feeling left on the skin, in fact, the only reason I know it was ever there in the first place is the delightful feeling of how soft and smooth my skin is.  Again, if you do have those pesky dry patches, my tip is to slap this on quite thickly and leave it to absorb itself and it literally is amazing. I have even slathered my feet in it (I hate feet), put my moisturising socks on (one whole pound in Wilko) and left them overnight and the difference the following morning was phenomenal!

I think it is fair to say that I have become quite the BYBI fan and am excited to see what else they have in store.  Have you ever tried anything from them?
