Is it safe to use during pregnancy?  
Yes, our Moringa & Pineapple Enzyme Face Mask is suitable to use in pregnancy. If you have any concerns we advise checking with your healthcare practitioner.  
  
Can I use acids like Exfoliating Tonic after using the Moringa Mask? 
We would recommend avoiding using acids such as our Exfoliating Tonic after the Moringa & Pineapple Enzyme Face Mask as it contains enzymes which help to gently exfoliate the skin. With exfoliation you need to avoid over exfoliation as this can strip the skin’s natural barrier, causing your skin to become more sensitive and prone to irritation.  
If you haven’t used enzymes or acids before it is best to ease your skin slowly in to using them. 
  
What are enzyme exfoliants? 
Enzyme exfoliants are typically derived from fruits (we’ve used pineapple extract), and exfoliate using enzymes, rather than chemical or physical exfoliants. Enzyme exfoliants work on the surface layer of the skin to break down dead skin cells (keratin protein) and increase the skin’s natural exfoliation process. They are more gentle than AHAs which is beneficial for those with sensitive skin.
