GlyMed Plus Hydrating Masque with Enzymes is a dual-action treatment mask that delivers gentle enzymatic exfoliation and deep hydration in a single step. Natural papain (from papaya) and bromelain (from pineapple) dissolve dead surface cells without scrubbing or irritation, revealing smoother, more even-toned skin underneath. The formula layers in sodium hyaluronate and glycerin to replenish moisture while a rich blend of botanicals calms and conditions, leaving behind a light herbal scent from lavender and lemongrass extracts.
Key Benefits
Smoother Texture Without Scrubbing Papain and bromelain break down the bonds between dead skin cells so they rinse away easily, refining texture and improving clarity without abrasive particles.
Lasting Hydration That Plumps Fine Lines Sodium hyaluronate draws and holds moisture in the upper layers of skin while squalane and glycerin reinforce the moisture barrier, leaving skin visibly plumper and more comfortable.
Calmed, Less Reactive Skin Calendula flower extract, allantoin, and aloe barbadensis work together to reduce redness and soothe irritation so skin feels settled rather than sensitized after exfoliating.
Purified and Balanced Pores Lemongrass and lavender extracts help clarify congested areas and regulate excess oil without stripping, making this mask especially useful for skin that is oily yet dehydrated.
Antioxidant Defense Tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E), ascorbyl palmitate (vitamin C derivative), and thioctic acid (alpha-lipoic acid) neutralize free radicals and support the skin's repair process between treatments.
If your skin looks dull, feels rough, or is dehydrated despite regular moisturizing, this mask was made for your routine. The enzyme-based exfoliation is gentle enough for sensitive or reactive skin types that can't tolerate physical scrubs or higher-strength acid peels.
It's also an excellent choice if you have oily or acne-prone skin that still feels tight or flaky. The formula exfoliates without disrupting the moisture barrier, so you get clearer pores and better hydration at the same time.
Ideal for anyone looking for a weekly reset that smooths texture, calms redness, and restores a healthy moisture balance without downtime.
Try applying this mask to the backs of your hands, elbows, or knees when you use it on your face. The same enzyme and hyaluronic acid blend that smooths facial skin works just as well on rough, dry body areas that rarely get exfoliation.
Prepare: Cleanse and tone skin thoroughly. Pat dry.
Apply: Spread an even layer over the face and neck, avoiding the eye area.
Technique: Leave on for 5 to 10 minutes. Gently massage with warm water, then remove with a clean facial sponge or soft cloth.
Frequency: Use 2 to 3 times per week. Follow with your toner, serum, and moisturizer. Apply SPF if using in the morning.

What skin types can use GlyMed Plus Hydrating Masque with Enzymes?
This mask works well across all skin types, including oily, combination, dry, and sensitive. The enzymatic exfoliation from papain and bromelain is gentler than physical scrubs or high-concentration acids, making it a safe weekly treatment for most people. If your skin is acne-prone and dehydrated at the same time, it's especially well-suited because it clears buildup without stripping moisture.
How does GlyMed Plus Hydrating Masque with Enzymes exfoliate without acids or scrubs?
It uses papain and bromelain, two proteolytic enzymes sourced from papaya and pineapple. These enzymes break down the keratin protein that binds dead cells to the skin's surface. Because they work by dissolving rather than scrubbing, the exfoliation is even and non-abrasive, which reduces the risk of micro-tears or irritation.
Can I use GlyMed Plus Hydrating Masque with Enzymes if my skin is sensitive or reactive?
Yes. Enzyme exfoliation is one of the gentlest methods available. The formula also includes allantoin, calendula flower extract, and aloe barbadensis to calm and soothe skin during and after the treatment. Start with the shorter 5-minute application time and increase as your skin adjusts.
Will GlyMed Plus Hydrating Masque with Enzymes help with dehydrated, oily skin?
Absolutely. Sodium hyaluronate and glycerin deliver lightweight hydration that doesn't add oil or clog pores, while lemongrass and lavender extracts help regulate excess sebum. This combination addresses dehydration and congestion at the same time, which is exactly what oily yet tight-feeling skin needs.
How often should I use GlyMed Plus Hydrating Masque with Enzymes?
Two to three times per week is ideal for most skin types. If your skin is very sensitive or new to exfoliation, begin with once a week and gradually increase. Always follow with a moisturizer and SPF if applying in the morning.
Does GlyMed Plus Hydrating Masque with Enzymes contain any antioxidants?
Yes. The formula includes tocopheryl acetate (a stable form of vitamin E), ascorbyl palmitate (a lipid-soluble vitamin C derivative), and thioctic acid (alpha-lipoic acid). Together these antioxidants help neutralize free radical damage and support the skin's natural repair processes.
Can I use GlyMed Plus Hydrating Masque with Enzymes alongside retinol or other exfoliating products?
You can, but stagger them. Use the mask on days when you are not applying strong retinol or acid-based exfoliants to avoid over-exfoliation. If you're unsure how to layer actives in your routine, our estheticians can help. Schedule a free skincare consultation for personalized guidance.
