BYOMA Taps Galderma Executive Tara Loftis as Global President Amid Post-Acquisition Growth Push — WE ARE LUXE LIMITED (BYOMA)

Event summary

BYOMA appoints Tara Loftis as Global President and Chief Brand Officer, its first major executive hire post-acquisition by The Bansk Group in 2025.
Loftis brings expertise from Galderma (where she led dermatological skincare) and Kendo Brands (LVMH), with a focus on digital-first growth and creator ecosystems.
BYOMA reported 44% year-over-year sales growth in 2025, with its Hydrating Milky Toner becoming the #1 bestselling milky toner in the U.S.
The brand plans global expansion, accelerated innovation, and long-term brand building under Loftis' leadership.

The big picture

BYOMA's appointment of Tara Loftis signals a strategic pivot toward aggressive global expansion following its acquisition by The Bansk Group. With $3 billion in assets under management, the brand is poised to compete more directly with industry giants like Galderma and LVMH-backed Kendo Brands. Loftis' track record in blending clinical credibility with digital-first marketing suggests BYOMA aims to disrupt traditional dermatological skincare by merging science with cultural relevance at scale.
