Active Peel System

Step one, the peel

A botanical acid complex leads: sugarcane extract (the source material glycolic acid is refined from) with bilberry, citrus, apple and sugar maple, the classic five-extract AHA bench, sharpened by true salicylic acid and willow bark, its botanical cousin. Witch hazel tones, a fast-evaporating alcohol base flashes off cleanly, and menthol announces that something is happening.

Step two, the counterweight

Freshly exfoliated skin is receptive skin, and the second wipe takes advantage: freshwater algae and shiitake mycelium extracts, a watermelon-apple-lentil hydration complex, vitamin C and glutathione as the antioxidant pair, tripeptide-1 as a renewal signal, and humectants (glycogen, sodium PCA) to re-cushion the surface. This is why it is a system, the peel earns the delivery, the recovery step spends it.

The cadence

Peels compound through repetition, not intensity: used on the label’s schedule, texture and radiance build over successive treatments, with the deeper versions of this logic living in our clinic.

Skin chasing texture, glow and pore refinement that has already made friends with milder exfoliation, and clinic-peel patients wanting maintenance between professional treatments.

Worth knowing

This is an advisory-tier product: genuinely acidic, fragranced, with a deliberate menthol tingle. Avoid entirely with an aspirin (salicylate) allergy, it carries both salicylic acid and willow bark. Not for broken or currently reactive skin, and expect brief warmth and tingling on application. During pregnancy, take advice before using leave-on acid treatments. If you are under our clinic’s care, check timing against any in-clinic peels or laser.

Evenings, on clean dry skin: wipe Step 1 evenly over face (avoiding eyes and lips), wait the label’s interval, then follow with Step 2 and leave it on. Use as directed on the pack, typically once to twice weekly, never on consecutive nights when starting.

High SPF every morning while using this system is part of the treatment, not optional.

Use alongside

A peel night is its own event: no retinoids, no other acids, no vitamin C serum that evening, just the two steps and, if skin runs dry, a bland moisturiser (Harmonize or Humidify) on top. It occupies the weekly-treatment chair alongside Pure Enzymes and Lanazyme Micro Peel, those are the enzyme-gentle options, this is the acid option; run one, not several. Rescue is the right companion the morning after an overenthusiastic session.
