A Softer Way to Renew: Enzyme Masks
A new season is the perfect excuse to reset. For those holding onto last season’s stress and finding their skin congested and dull as a result, your best friend will be an exfoliation that supports your skin barrier. If you’re craving renewal without irritation, enzymatic exfoliation will be your hero.
Enzymatic masks are a smart way to exfoliate without harsh scrubs. Instead of relying solely on granules, our masks use natural enzymes from fruits to dissolve dead skin cells and reveal smoother, brighter skin. Both Sugarmoon masks come in powder form, which means you activate them with water right before use, and that’s when the enzymes are most effective.
Balancing Enzyme Exfoliating Mask
For oily, combination & breakout-prone skin
Key Ingredients & Benefits:
Australian Green Clay & Kaolin: purify and soak up excess oils
Pineapple Enzymes: gently dissolves dead skin cells.
Rice Powder: a skincare hero. Packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, and most importantly, provides natural salicylic acid to regulate oil levels.
Tea Tree Leaf: antibacterial support to help calm active breakouts.
This is your go-to if you want a clarifying exfoliation that helps manage excess oil and keeps blemishes at bay. Perfect for those who struggle with clogged pores, shine, and uneven texture. The combination of clay plus enzymes deeply cleans while keeping the exfoliation gentle.
Revitalize Enzymes Exfoliating Mask
For normal, dry, mature, or sensitive skin
Key Ingredients & Benefits:
Pink Clay & Kaolin: helps absorb just the right amount of oil without stripping.
Pineapple & Papaya Enzymes: gently dissolve dead skin and brighten complexion.
Colloidal Oatmeal: another skincare hero! This soothing agent is full of antioxidants so its ideal for healing aggravated skin and supporting the natural barrier. It also contains saponins which purifies the skin and boosts collagen production.
Lavender Essential Oil: antiseptic and calming, great for comfort and relaxation.
If your skin is more delicate or on the drier side, this mask will help provide you with gentle renewal and soothing care. It is a softer version and is better suited for dryness, sensitivity, or early signs of aging.
How to Use
Add a small amount of powder to a bowl or in your palms, and emulsify with water.
Apply gently to clean, damp skin, being sure to avoid the eye area.
Rub gently for 1–2 minutes. This will activate the fruit enzymes, as well as provide a gentle physical exfoliation from the rice powder and coconut husk.
Leave on for about 5–10 minutes while the enzymes do their work.
Remove with warm water or cotton pads.
This is a great treatment to use once or twice a week, depending on your skin’s tolerance. Be mindful of your skin’s reactions and adjust usage and leave-on time accordingly. The enzymes work best when fresh, mix the powder with water right before you’re ready to use it. If you feel like you need a little extra boost of hydration, you can also mix it with a little bit of toner instead of water for extra benefits. Just be careful not to use too much toner, you don’t want to waste that!
