Phyto-enzyme Peeling Pad
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
MEDIHEAL's Phyto-enzyme Peeling Pad uses plant-derived enzymes and lipo hydroxy acid to gently exfoliate, making it suitable for all skin types including sensitive skin. Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Jenny Liu notes it's "definitely a lot less irritating than salicylic acid" while still tackling pores and promoting skin turnover. Results for dullness and hydration require consistent long-term use, but it's a solid alternative for those who find other peel pads too harsh.
