Key Actives + Benefits

30% Protease Enzyme — The Science of Controlled Exfoliation Without Compromise.

Key Active

30% Protease Enzyme

An exclusive, proprietary Protease Enzyme derived from mushroom (Mucor Miehei Extract) engineered to mimic the skin's naturally occurring Cathepsin D enzyme — which assists in the normal shedding of dead skin cells. At 30% concentration, it delivers clinical-level exfoliation activity.

Mechanism

Cathepsin D Mimic

Cathepsin D is the enzyme the skin uses in its own natural desquamation (shedding) cycle. By mimicking it, the Protease Enzyme initiates the same controlled cellular separation process — accelerating exfoliation without creating the micro-wounds associated with chemical AHA peels.

Safety

AHA Results Without Wounding

Traditional AHA peels achieve exfoliation through controlled chemical injury. The Protease Enzyme achieves equivalent peel-level results by working within the skin's own enzymatic pathways — no wounding, no downtime, and clinically proven less than 5% photosensitivity.

Year-Round Use

Low Photosensitivity

The sub-5% photosensitivity rating distinguishes this masque from standard AHA exfoliants — which significantly increase sun sensitivity. This makes it suitable for year-round use including summer months when AHA treatments are typically avoided.

Anti-Aging

Firms + Lifts

Formulated to visibly firm and lift the appearance of aging skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and support skin elasticity and renewal as part of a comprehensive age management protocol.

Hydration

Nourishing Formula

Hyaluronic Acid and supporting humectants provide deep hydration during the masque treatment — ensuring the exfoliation process is paired with active nourishment for skin that is refreshed and plumped rather than stripped.

What You'll Notice

What It Does

Exfoliated

Peel-level exfoliation without wounding — smoother, more refined skin surface after each use.

Firmed

Appearance of fine lines reduced — skin looks more lifted and toned with regular use.

Radiant

Year-round enzyme exfoliation supports a consistently bright, renewed complexion.

How to Use

Directions for Application

Apply after cleansing. Leave on 5–10 minutes. Use 2–3 times per month.

1

Cleanse Thoroughly

Cleanse the face, neck, and décolleté before masque application. Clean skin allows the Protease Enzyme to work directly on the skin surface without interference from residual product or impurities.

2

Apply an Even Layer

Apply the Age-Defying Masque to the face, neck, and décolleté in an even layer. Avoid the eye area.

3

Leave On for 5–10 Minutes

Allow the masque to work for 5–10 minutes. The Protease Enzyme activates on contact with the skin surface — initiating the Cathepsin D-mimicking desquamation process during the treatment window.

4

Rinse and Follow with Routine

Rinse thoroughly with water. Follow with your GlyMed Plus toner, serum, and moisturizer. Because photosensitivity is less than 5%, this masque can be used year-round — but daily SPF is still always recommended as best practice.
