Enzymatic Peel
This enzymatic peel removes dead skin cells gently without any rubbing and leaves skin noticeably smoother immediately.
- Enzymes from papaya and pineapple: papain and bromelain dissolve dead skin cell bonds instead of scrubbing them away.
- Gentle exfoliation: suitable for sensitive skin that does not tolerate mechanical exfoliants.
- Immediately smoother: skin feels soft and refreshed after just one use.

The most important ingredients
Enzyme from the papaya fruit that gently loosens dead skin cells through enzymatic exfoliation.
Function: Can smooth the skin surface and refresh the complexion, without mechanical friction.
The smallest fruit acid (AHA) - can penetrate especially deep into the skin and loosen dead cells.
Function: Can accelerate skin renewal, ease pigment spots and refine skin texture.
Enzyme from the pineapple fruit that supports the enzymatic breakdown of dead skin cells.
Function: Can promote cell renewal and refine skin structure, especially in combination with AHA.
Application
Frequently asked questions
What distinguishes an enzyme peel from an acid peel?
Enzymes (here papain from papaya and bromelain from pineapple) dissolve the protein bonds between dead skin cells. Acids dissolve the cells themselves.
The enzyme peel is the gentlest exfoliation mechanism - no friction, no acid, just targeted protein dissolution. Apply for 10 to 20 minutes, wash off, immediate freshness. Ideal for sensitive skin.
Why is an enzyme peel better for sensitive skin?
Enzymes work specifically on the protein bonds between dead skin cells - not on the skin itself. This is significantly gentler than acids, which actively dissolve the cells, or physical scrubs, which rub.
Papain (from papaya) and bromelain (from pineapple) are natural proteases - they literally "digest" the bonds. For sensitive, reactive or redness-prone skin this is ideal, so that your skin is exfoliated without being irritated.
Exactly how long should the Enzymatic Peel be left on?
10 to 20 minutes is optimal - that's on the instructions. Depending on skin type and sensitivity, you can start in the lower range and extend later.
Important: don't leave on for longer than 20 minutes, because the enzymes then act too aggressively and can cause redness. When the time is up, rinse off with lukewarm water - don't rub off, just gently remove, so that the skin is spared. Use in the evening and apply sunscreen the next morning.
Can I combine the Enzymatic Peel with my retinol?
Not on the same evening. If you use retinol in the evening, do the Enzymatic Peel 2-3 times a week on the other days. Both together overwhelm the skin and can lead to irritation.
Better: retinol 3-4 times a week in the evening, Enzymatic Peel on the other evenings (1-2 times a week). This way you exfoliate regularly without destabilising the skin barrier, so that your skin tolerates the retinol optimally.
Do I see the fresh effect right after the peel?
Yes, often during or right after application. This is the immediate fresh effect - the skin looks brighter and smoother because the surface is smoothed and reflects light better.
Over the next 24-48 hours the effect becomes even more intense, because the deeper layers grow back and renew. The real anti-ageing benefit - refined texture, improved active transport - builds up with repeated use, so that you see clear improvements after 4-6 weeks.
