Bromelain (100) is a natural plant protease that is biotechnologically derived from pineapple strains. The main component is the enzyme bromelain. It has a strong anti-inflammatory effect and reduces skin tanning caused by the sun. It also acts selectively on aged skin cells, breaks them down and shows a nice peeling effect. So it leads to soft and tender skin. It can also be used to lighten skin and remove freckles.
