Elemis Papaya Enzyme Peel

Exfoliate, brighten, and smooth your complexion without abrasive scrubbing using the Elemis Papaya Enzyme Peel, a gentle rinse-off cream treatment powered by natural fruit enzymes.

Perfect for sensitive, mature, or lacklustre skin types that find traditional grainy scrubs too harsh, this non-abrasive exfoliating cream resurfaces the skin using natural enzymatic action. Its smooth, conditioning cream base gently dissolves dead skin cells and lifts away daily impurities, revealing a remarkably soft, radiant, and revitalised complexion underneath.

Benefits

• Gentle Exfoliation: Dissolves dead skin cell buildup without the need for harsh friction or scrubbing.
• Instant Brightening: Targets dull, tired skin to restore a healthy, natural luminosity.
• Smoothes Skin Texture: Refines the look of rough patches and fine lines for a uniform finish.
• Deeply Conditioning: Infuses the skin with essential lipids to ensure it feels soft and comfortable, never stripped.
• Antioxidant Protection: Helps shield the complexion from environmental aggressors and free radical damage.

The Science Behind the Formula
Elemis harnesses the power of natural biogents to deliver effective skin resurfacing alongside intense nourishment:

• Papaya (Papain): Contains natural enzymes that gently digest the proteins binding dead cells to the skin’s surface, promoting effortless cellular turnover.
• Pineapple (Bromelain): A complementary enzyme that works in tandem with Papaya to purify, smooth, and clarify the epidermis.
• Bladderwrack (Seaweed Extract): A nutrient-rich marine active that delivers intense hydration and conditioning benefits to support the skin barrier.
• Milk Protein & Vitamin E: Provide deep nourishment, soothing properties, and antioxidant defence during the exfoliation process.

Why We Love It
We love this peel because it completely redefines chemical exfoliation for delicate skin. It looks and feels like a luxurious, comforting face mask rather than a peeling treatment. While it sits on your skin, the tropical aroma of fresh papaya creates an instant sensory escape, and once rinsed away, it leaves your skin looking exceptionally clear, supple, and beautifully primed for the rest of your skincare routine.

How To Use It

• Use twice a week on freshly cleansed skin.
• Apply a generous layer over the entire face, taking care to avoid the delicate eye area.
• Leave the treatment on for 10-15 minutes to allow the fruit enzymes to activate.
• Rinse off thoroughly with lukewarm water, or remove gently using a damp, warm mitt.

Works Well With
After rinsing away the peel, follow up with the Elemis Soothing Apricot Toner to balance your skin's pH levels and prepare it for your favourite serum or moisturiser.
