An enzyme peeling is a process of deep exfoliation with a blend of natural fruit enzymes, which are gentle yet effective on the skin.

These fruit enzymes speed up the cell turnover process while providing the nutrients and minerals to the skin

They contain alpha hydroxyl acids, vitamins and essential fatty acids which help to loosen the dead skin cells and speed up the exfoliation process leaving the skin fresh and glowing.

Enzyme peels do not penetrate deep into the skin. They just work on the topmost layer of the skin, which is made of protein called keratin.

They break this protein layer and remove the dull, damaged surface cells, revealing soft, smoother skin.

Enzyme peels exfoliate the dead skin cells without damaging the live tissue. Therefore it’s safe for almost all skin types and doesn’t disturb the pH balance of the skin.
