Skincare Sourced From Nature

Ba Yan Ka La

Organic Shanghai skincare label Ba Yan Ka La is named after the mountain range on the remote Qinghai-Tibetan plateau from where it sources pure glacial water, although pristine water is just the beginning of its all-natural ingredients list. Each product has a meticulously documented list of its ingredients, all centered around one of five key components: Chinese Mulberry for detoxifying, Coix seed for brightening, Goji berry for strengthening, Lotus seed for nourishing, and Tibetan Roseroot for protecting properties.

The luxury skincare brand was founded in 2007 by French former retail executive Jean Zimmerman, whose goal was to create China’s first ‘clean cosmetics’. Drawing inspiration from ancient Chinese herbal medicines, Zimmerman transforms these traditional remedies into modern, everyday products, with everything from facial masks to shampoos to essential oil blends, all fit to serve a specific purpose. Pick up some Tibetan Roseroot-based bubble bath to combat stress, or Coix seed facial serum for fighting wrinkles, and also sample a few of their well-being rituals – have a headache? No problem, simply massage their Goji berry cream into the corresponding reflex points between your fingers. The best part? Even if you’re not in Shanghai, BYKL delivers all around the Mainland.
