GH Peeling Enzimático Arcilla Blanca: the at-home spa that exfoliates without irritating, even sensitive skin

Physical granules scratch the skin. Acids can irritate. Enzymes, on the other hand, act with surgical precision: they dissolve only the dead corneocytes on the surface without damaging living tissue. GH Peeling Enzimático Arcilla Blanca by Gema Herrerías takes this principle to the extreme: it uses enzymes in direct form — not as an extract — so that their proteolytic action is real and measurable, stabilises them in powder form to prevent premature hydrolysis, and combines them with two clays of complementary action and humectant mannitol. The result is the gentlest exfoliation that gives new, luminous skin after every session.

Action and Benefits

• Exfoliates the skin surface without granules: selectively and non-traumatically removes dead corneocytes.
• Improves luminosity, texture and overall skin appearance from the very first application.
• Reduces the appearance of enlarged pores, superficial marks and dark spots.
• Stimulates cell regeneration through humectant mannitol.
• Enhances the penetration and efficacy of treatments applied afterwards.
• Non-photosensitising: does not increase sun sensitivity after use.
• No granules. Dermatologically tested on adults with sensitive skin. Suitable for all skin types including sensitive. Safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Key Active Ingredients

• Papain: proteolytic enzyme purified directly from papaya. Weakens the bonds between dead corneocytes, promoting their desquamation and cell renewal. Greater efficacy than conventional papaya extract.
• Bromelain: proteolytic enzyme from pineapple with a complementary mechanism of action to papain. Both are activated on contact with water at the moment of extemporaneous preparation.
• Kaolin: white clay with high mineral content. Regulates excess sebum while hydrating by maintaining the moisture of the hydrolipidic film. Soothing and softening effect.
• Bentonite: natural clay with high absorbent capacity. Removes impurities and excess sebum from pores without drying the skin.
• Mannitol: sugar alcohol with humectant function that stimulates skin regeneration and improves peel tolerance.

How to Apply

• Mix two dosing spoonfuls of powder with three pumps of GH Limpiador Hidratante (or GH Solución Micelar) until a smooth paste forms.
• Apply as a mask over the entire face, avoiding the eye contour, nose wings and lip corners.
• Leave for 2 minutes and rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
• Frequency: 2 or 3 times per week at night. For dry skin, apply GH Mascarilla Ultrahidratante afterwards, leaving it on overnight.
• Extemporaneous preparation is mandatory: mix only the amount needed at the moment of use. Do not prepare in advance to avoid loss of enzymatic activity through hydrolysis. Close the container well after each use.
• Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C. PAO: 9 months. Not suitable for those with papaya or pineapple allergy.
