Bromelain

Low risk

FunctionEnzyme

What it is — Bromelain is a protein-digesting enzyme from pineapple stems.

What it does — At low cosmetic levels it gently loosens the bonds of dead surface cells, supporting smoothness without acid-style exfoliation.

Typical use — Enzyme polish blends in masks, cleansers and smoothing formulas.

Who it suits / good to know — Gentler than acids; even sensitive skin usually tolerates enzyme levels used in leave-on products.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk in its EWG-style, ingredient-by-ingredient review. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is easily irritated.
