What is it?
Alex Cosmetic Enzyme Peeling is a professional exfoliating treatment built on kaolin and bentonite clays, sharpened with the fruit enzyme bromelain. Rather than physical scrubbing, the enzymes work on the surface layer of hardened, devitalized cells, lifting them away so the skin surface looks smoother and is more receptive to the products applied afterward. This listing is the 125 g cabin jar for professional use.
Professional use notice: For professional use by licensed estheticians. Perform a patch test at least 24 hours before a full treatment, and advise clients to use daily sun protection and avoid direct sun exposure for several days after the service, since freshly exfoliated skin is more sensitive to UV.
Key benefits
- Loosens dead skin cells: the enzyme action helps calm the look of swelling and redness as it exfoliates.
- Cleanses and balances: clears dirt and excess oil from the pores while helping balance the skin’s own oils.
- Soothes as it works: supports a calmer look and feel, even for reactive skin.
- Supports skin elasticity: hydrating, nourishing ingredients help the skin look firmer and healthier afterward.
- Preps skin for treatment: improves how well skin absorbs the serums and masks that follow in a facial.
Key ingredients
Bentonite and kaolin are mineral clays that absorb excess oil and dirt from the skin’s surface. Bromelain, an enzyme derived from pineapple, does the main exfoliating work, helping lift dulling surface cells. Bisabolol is included for its calming reputation, which helps balance the peeling action for sensitive or reactive skin. Sweet almond seed meal adds a gentle, nourishing texture to the treatment.
How to use
- Cleanse the client’s face thoroughly to remove dirt, oil and makeup.
- Apply a thin, even layer of the peel, avoiding the eye area.
- Leave on for about 10 to 15 minutes to let the enzymes work.
- Rinse off with warm water.
For sensitive skin, the brand suggests blending the mixed peel with a teaspoon of a calming cream to soften its strength.
Who it is for
This peel is intended for oily, impure and over-keratinized skin as part of a professional facial protocol, performed by a licensed esthetician.
