GlyMed Plus Oxygen Deep Pore Masque

Unlike traditional clay masks that can leave skin feeling tight and stripped, this mask uses enzymatic exfoliation and oxygen-infusing technology to deeply cleanse while maintaining hydration. The protease enzyme works to dissolve pore-clogging debris rather than simply absorbing surface oil, and sodium lactate helps preserve your skin's Natural Moisturizing Factor throughout the treatment.

While formulated for all skin types, this mask contains active exfoliating ingredients including grapefruit peel oil and apple extract that may be too stimulating for very sensitive or reactive skin. If you're unsure, start with a 5-minute application once per week and monitor how your skin responds before increasing frequency.

The protease enzyme is a proprietary ingredient exclusive to GlyMed Plus, derived from mushroom extract. It mimics the Cathepsin-D enzyme found naturally in your skin, which assists in the normal shedding of dead skin cells. This gentle enzymatic action helps unclog pores without the harsh mechanical exfoliation that can irritate congested skin.

Use this mask 2 to 3 times per week for best results. If you have particularly oily or congested skin, you can use it up to three times weekly. Those with combination or normal skin may find twice weekly is sufficient to maintain clear, refined pores.

Yes, mixing equal parts of this mask with GlyMed Plus Hydrating Masque with Enzymes creates a balanced treatment that delivers both deep cleansing and extra hydration. This combination is especially useful if your skin feels dry but still experiences congestion, or if you want to customize the intensity of your mask treatment.

Yes, the combination of protease enzyme and natural AHAs from apple extract helps dissolve the dead skin cells and sebum that form blackheads. Regular use helps keep pores clear and minimizes their appearance over time. For persistent blackheads, consistent use alongside a proper daily cleansing routine yields the best results.

Apply this mask after cleansing and toning, but skip your separate exfoliation step on mask days. The formula already contains enzymatic and AHA exfoliation, so layering additional exfoliants can over-strip your skin and compromise your moisture barrier. Save your other exfoliating products for non-mask days.
