Product Information

Niacinamide & Maracuja is a daily moisturizer formulated to support your skin's barrier. Best for oily, combination and breakout prone skin.​

Ready to see what all the hype is about? Below, find my review of the product line, as well as why Yarbro created each formula. What it claims: Retinol, a derivative of vitamin A, can help prevent acne as well as reduce the appearance of acne scarring, fine lines, and wrinkles in the skin. It’s often touted as a holy grail anti-aging ingredient. This serum puts a 2% retinol at the forefront of its ingredient list, claiming that it can smooth the skin and even out its tone. It also includes rainbow algae to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation; tranexamic acid, a synthetic derivative of amino acid lysine, to prevent or reduce already-existing dark spots; and squalane, a lipid derived from plants or animals, to hydrate. You can apply four to five drops every evening, assuming you’re not using another exfoliant, like the Mandelic Acid & Rice Bran. Retinol can increase sensitivity to the sun, so it’s best to only apply this at night and be vigilant about sunscreen application in the morning. The bottle contains 1 ounce of formula. What it claims: There’s no question that salicylic acid is a go-to ingredient for preventing and treating acne. It’s also an ingredient Hyram has recommended before in products like the Paula’s Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant, which I used nightly before switching up my routine to try this line. Hyram’s iteration on a salicylic acid serum contains (ahem) 0.5% salicylic acid to unclog pores; niacinamide to control oil production; succinic acid, a naturally occurring chemical, to reduce bacteria and prevent future breakouts; and sea kelp to repair and protect the skin barrier from outside stressors and moisture loss. You’ll want to shake the bottle and apply three to five drops to the skin every morning after cleansing. The bottle contains one ounce. The Selfless by Hyram Niacinamide & Maracujá Daily Barrier Support Moisturizer controls oil production and moisturizes the skin. What it claims: A pea-sized amount of this moisturizer can be used in the morning and evening after cleansing the skin and adding any treatments. It claims that the 5% niacinamide, a form of vitamin B3, reduces the skin’s oil and the appearance of pores; maracujá, an oil from passion fruit seeds, strengthens the skin barrier and promotes healing in damaged or weak skin; madecassoside, an extract from the centella asiatica plant, soothes sensitive skin; and murumuru butter, an extract from the seeds of palm trees, softens the skin. It’s suitable for all skin types and comes with 1.7 ounces.Yarbro decided to partner with The Inkey List, a brand known for its high-quality, yet affordable products, because of his longtime appreciation for its lineup. “The Inkey List has been one of the most featured brands on my channel,” he explains. “If you look at most of my videos, you'll find at least one Inkey List product recommended just because their ingredients and overall formulation philosophy directly align with my own.” I want to believe there was good intent here, and that the pricing is justified, but it feels like a cash grab and if he really cared about the planet, he wouldn't have started another skincare line. The Selfless by Hyram Retinol & Rainbow Algae Repair Serum claims to even the skin's texture and tone. The best part is that it's super easy to use. Simply apply a couple of drops after cleansing and before moisturising. Though it's gentle, this product shouldn't be combined with lots of other strong acids in your routine — we don't want to be overexfoliating and ruining our skin barrier. On 1 June, Hyram Yarbro — a science-based skin-care expert and influencer with 12 million followers — announced the exciting launch of his new skin-care brand, Selfless by Hyram. In partnership with The Inkey List, the aim of Selfless by Hyram is to positively impact challenges currently being faced by people and the planet — all whilst delivering incredible skin-care results.

The key ingredients included in the Centella & Green Tea Daily Gel Cleanser are three percent centella, which helps to soothe skin; green tea, which similarly helps to calm the skin and reduce redness; and glycerin, which is well-known for being ultrahydrating. Because this product is especially created for sensitive skin types, it's formulated without any fragrance, which can cause some irritation. The Selfless by Hyram Centella & Green Tea Hydrating Gel Cleanser cleans the skin and removes makeup.New and EXCLUSIVE to Cult Beauty, the effective, gentle and eco-conscious { skin care} range from our favourite sk-influencer, Hyram Yarbro, has arrived! Though we’re not sure you’ll need all that much convincing, here’s three reasons to add this eagerly anticipated line to your basket ASAP… 1. It’s the brainchild of the internet’s favourite skin care fanatic What it’s like to use it: I’m not surprised that I love Hyram’s take on a moisturizer after trying some of the ones he recommends, like the Cerave Moisturizing Cream and First Aid Beauty Coconut Water Cream. Beginning with the exterior: The long, slim tube is sleek looking and makes this easy to store in a cosmetic bag, a vanity drawer, or on the bathroom shelf. Plus, this eliminates the unhygienic aspect of digging your fingers into a jar over and over again. The moisturizer itself has a lightweight-lotion consistency that glides onto the skin without being too runny. I needed more than the suggested pea-sized amount—more like a blueberry’s worth of moisturizer. Without added fragrance, the product’s aroma is dirt-like and unpleasant to my nose but mild upon application and not noticeable once it absorbs into the skin. After application, my skin feels well moisturized and soft to the touch. I haven’t noticed the oil- and pore-reducing effects that the niacinamide promises, but I think my skin looks healthy when I wear this. When I’m looking for a moisturizer, I want something that’s easy to blend into the skin, non-irritating, and hydrating, and this delivers on all of those fronts.

Thanks to its core ingredients of centella, green tea and glycerin, the formula soothed and calmed my skin, while prepping it for the next steps of my skincare routine. I truly said goodbye to redness and hello to hydrated skin. My face didn’t feel dry or irritated at all.I got my hands on all five of the Selfless by Hyram products ahead of the launch, so read on to see what I thought of each product in the lineup. Spoiler: they're all pretty great. And on top of that, I do feel like there's a lot of greenwashing going on here. Yes, it gives to charity but the marketing all says "this skincare brand is going to change the world" and while someone could argue that this brand is good because it can compete with unethical brands...Selfless by Hyram is still creating a lot of waste and its price points and products are not competitive on the market. The stars of the show are mandelic acid, an alpha hydroxy acid that is one of the best for sensitive skin, which is all down to having a larger molecule than other AHAs, and rice bran (also known as phytic acid), which is a gentle AHA with antioxidant properties working to neutralise free radical damage to the skin. These two powerhouses are combined with polyhydroxy acids, the most gentle acid exfoliators out there — due to an even larger molecule and thus causing less irritation — working to unclog pores by dissolving dead skin cells. All of these ingredients work together to slough away dead skin cells, leaving a brighter, smoother complexion. The Selfless by Hyram Salicylic Acid & Sea Kelp Pore Clearing and Oil Control Serum prevents breakouts.
