BYOMA vs KORRES

BYOMA and KORRES are contemporary skincare labels offering thoughtfully formulated moisturizers, gentle cleansers, and targeted treatments designed to support the natural balance of the complexion. BYOMA harnesses the power of a tri-ceramide complex and squalane to suit dry and sensitive skin, while the botanical formulas of the other brand suit dry, sensitive, normal, and combination skin best. While both lines feature standout products tailored for acne, dark spots, and mature concerns, they differ in their heritage and key ingredients, giving skincare enthusiasts distinct ways to nurture their barrier health.

BYOMA is a British skincare brand founded in 2022 and owned by Bansk Group since 2025.
