Protease is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of proteins that affect skin cells. to help shed skin cells It has the advantage of being able to work in neutral pH compared to AHA which is highly acidic.

Protease is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of proteins that affect skin cells. to help shed skin cells It has the advantage of being able to work in neutral pH compared to AHA which is highly acidic. Maiden

An experiment with 5 users for 2 consecutive days and using Protest Enzyme at a concentration of 0.2% found that

-Protease Enzyme makes the epidermis (stratum corneum) bond together more tightly. resulting in tightening of the skin It was found that the bond was 49% tighter.

-Protease Enzyme can accelerate skin cell turnover (Keratolytic Effect) up to 66% from the natural level of skin cell turnover.

Protease Enzyme is synthesized. from the process Biotechnology using Micro-organism

Temperature 4 degrees can be stored for 25 months, temperature 15 degrees can be stored for 18 months, room temperature can be stored for 12 months

Instructions for mixing in the recipe

Protease Enzyme is easily soluble in water. But will deteriorate within about 30 minutes when mixed with water. There should be no water in the formula. But when used must be mixed with water to start (If not fully dissolved in water, Protease will not be fully active) and apply to the skin. Protease-based products are powder masks. when to use Users mix with water and mask or may be Cleansing powder ( Cleansing Powder ) When used, mix with water and lubricate the face.

Warning: PROTEASE is a highly effective enzyme. *Do not* use more than the manufacturer's limit. May be harmful to the skin

Use: for skin exfoliation products or skin rejuvenation

Mixing method: Mix in any formula that does not contain water. when applied to the skin must be mixed with water To initiate the action of the enzyme, the formula should have a pH in the range of 5.5-8.5 where the enzyme can work most efficiently.

Usage rate: 0.1-1% (recommended 0.5% Use in excess of the concentration specified by the manufacturer. Can cause skin irritation. )

Product characteristics: Beige or light yellow powder, pH 5.5-8.5.

Solubility: can dissolve in water

Storage: For long term storage Store in a refrigerator at 4 degrees, away from light, heat, humidity, at least 24 months.
