Ingredients
Protease: Body-like enzyme
Posted by Xeno Team on
INCI: protease
Effect: breaks down proteins, causes skin to flake off
Tolerability: very good
Protease is a protein-breaking enzyme that is also found in the human body. That's why protease is an ideal ingredient for an enzyme peel . Proteases are very well tolerated and are therefore suitable for very sensitive skin as long as they do not contain any other aggressive ingredients. They help the skin to exfoliate gently without irritating the skin. That's why protease is a better-tolerated alternative to the fruit enzyme papain.
Protease works best in combination with the fat-breaking enzyme lipase .
Lipase: body-like enzyme
Good to know: Protease occurs in the body and is responsible for protein digestion (proteolysis). This enzyme breaks down complex protein molecules. All of this happens in the stomach: There the food pulp is mixed with the gastric juice, which contains the protease mixture pepsin.
