Smoother, more polished skin from one gentle mask.
Your skin feels rough or flaky and makeup catches on the surface, and you want a smoother finish without scrubbing.
Skin Zyme uses papain, an enzyme from green papaya, to loosen dead surface cells so skin feels smoother and looks polished and fresh. Jan Marini makes it for all skin types all year, and it suits skin that is flaking post procedure. Honey and safflower seed oil keep skin comfortable while it works.
Who It Is For
All skin types, including sensitive skin, and skin that is flaking or peeling post procedure.
Acne Safe
What You Will See, and When
Skin feels smoother and looks more polished as soon as you rinse.
How to Use
Once or twice a week, after cleansing, smooth a thin, even layer over your face and neck and leave it on for up to 20 minutes. Massage in a little cleanser, rinse well with lukewarm water and pat dry. Carry on with the rest of your routine.
The Science
Dead cells at the surface are held together by protein links. Papain is a protein digesting enzyme from unripe papaya, and it works on those links, so the cells let go and rinse away without scrubbing.
Because enzymes act only at the surface and stop when rinsed off, enzyme masks are a common choice for a gentle, occasional polish.
Questions
Why a Routine Made for You Works Better
General advice is written for everyone, so it has to assume nothing about you. It can tell you what is safe. It cannot tell you what will work for your skin.
Skin changes when it is challenged just enough, then given time to recover and adapt. That amount is different for every person, and it moves as your skin gets stronger. Ask too much and your skin spends its energy recovering instead of improving. Ask too little and nothing changes. Finding that point for you, and moving it at the right time, is where results come from.
Where that point sits depends on:
- Your skin: its history, how it reacts, and what it is doing today
- Your health: hormones, medications, pregnancy and any condition that changes how skin behaves
- Your lifestyle: sleep, stress, diet, sun, exercise and climate
- Your routine: what you use now, and what has and has not worked before
- Your goals: what you most want to change
- Your expectations and timeline: how soon you want to see change, and what is realistic for your skin
- Your consistency: how much time and how many steps you will keep up with, because the best routine is the one you actually do
- Your treatments: what you have had and what you have planned
A skin therapist weighs all of this, builds a routine you can keep, and adjusts it as your skin responds. That is why we guarantee our products when they are part of a routine designed by one of our skin therapists. If you have been reading general advice, bring your questions. We will help you sort out what applies to you and what does not.
