Pineapple extract is rich in the substance Bromelain which is a protein digesting enzyme.  Applied to the skin this enzyme breaks down the protein bonds (corneodesmosomes) that hold dead skin cells onto the surface of the stratum corneum. 

This allows excess dead cells to be shed from the skin, exposing younger, more vibrant cells and refining the complexion. 

• ‘Invisible’ chemical exfoliation – intercellular ‘glue’ that attaches dead skin cells to the surface is broken down
• Skin is refined and looks younger
• Combined with ‘skin whitening’ plant complex with Hibiscus to enhance whitening effect

Also known as Ananas sativus fruit extract or Bromelain
