We're not talking about clinic-strength peels here, so don't worry, you're not going to wake up with skin shedding like a snake! These at-home peels are all about gently resurfacing to reveal a smooth, refined and healthy-looking complexion.
LABthetics Enzyme Skin Peel Renew Mask
This once a week treatment mask consists of a natural enzyme-based powder that is mixed with water to create a mask. The gentle peeling, exfoliating and resurfacing action breaks down dead skin cells and dissolves pore blockages that cause skin to appear dull and congested.
The powder mask is formulated with Calcium Bentonite, which targets dryness, itching and premature wrinkling, whilst Calcium supports the function of cell turnover and helps to regulate the protective lipid barrier.
Kaolin is a clay mineral that helps to absorb oil and exfoliate skin alongside Papaya extract, which is a powerful exfoliator that also helps to reduce pigmentation.
Jan Marini Skin Zyme Papaya Mask
This gentle mask digests skin cells without harming or irritating sensitive skin. Thanks to the gentle yet effective exfoliating action, the mask is great for use on post-procedure and flaking or peeling skin to remove dead skin cells whilst respecting delicate skin.

PHAs are gentler on skin, causing less irritation thanks to their larger molecular structure, which penetrates skin at a slower rate and doesn't disturb the deeper and more delicate layers of skin.
