Peter Thomas Roth FIRMx Peeling Gel gentle enzyme exfoliant — roll-off formula for smoother, brighter skin

FIRMx® Peeling Gel by Peter Thomas Roth is a gentle, enzyme-powered exfoliant that visibly lifts away dead skin, impurities, and congested pores for smoother, brighter-looking skin.

This lightweight, roll-off peeling gel combines natural fruit enzymes and cellulose to break down dull surface skin and sweep it away without harsh scrubbing. Designed to be massaged onto clean, dry skin, the formula reacts into small, visible rolls that carry away flakes and residue, leaving a fresher-feeling complexion. It targets uneven texture and surface congestion while being suitable for most skin types when used as directed.

How does the FIRMx® Peeling Gel exfoliate without abrasive scrubbing?

The gel relies on enzyme action and a physical rolling effect rather than gritty particles. Pineapple and pomegranate enzymes help loosen dead cells, keratinase supports targeted breakdown of keratinized buildup, and cellulose aids the product’s roll-off action to remove loosened material gently.

• Pineapple and pomegranate enzymes to digest surface dead skin
• Keratinase for targeted breakdown of keratin-rich buildup
• Cellulose particles facilitate visible roll-and-sweep removal
• Non-abrasive texture designed for gentle massage, not harsh friction

When and how should I use this peeling gel in my skincare routine?

Use on clean, dry skin 1–3 times per week depending on sensitivity. Apply a small amount, massage gently until the formula forms tiny rolled bits, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and follow with toner and moisturizer.

• Apply to clean, dry face—avoid wet application for best rolling effect
• Massage briefly until visible roll-off occurs, then rinse
• Follow with hydrating products and sunscreen during daytime use
• Adjust frequency based on skin tolerance and response

What skin concerns does this product help improve?

The formula is intended to address surface dullness, uneven texture, and clogged pores by removing dead skin and impurities that can dull a complexion. It helps create a smoother canvas so other skincare products can absorb more effectively.

• Removes surface flakes and visible debris for improved radiance
• Helps clear pore-clogging residue that contributes to congestion
• Visibly smooths rough or uneven skin texture
• Prepares skin for serums and moisturizers by improving product absorption

Is the peeling gel suitable for sensitive or breakout-prone skin?

Formulated for gentle enzymatic exfoliation, it may be tolerated by many skin types, but those with very sensitive or actively irritated skin should proceed cautiously. Patch-testing and reduced frequency are recommended to assess individual sensitivity before regular use.

• Gentle enzyme-based action versus harsh physical scrubs
• Patch-test on inner wrist or jawline before full-face use
• Reduce application to once every 7–10 days if skin reacts
• Avoid use over broken, sunburned, or inflamed skin

Who is this for: Peter Thomas Roth FIRMx® Peeling Gel is ideal for people seeking a non-abrasive exfoliant to reduce surface dullness, refine texture, and help clear clogged pores without the intense feel of grainy scrubs. It suits those who prefer enzyme-based chemistry and a visible roll-off action, and who are comfortable incorporating a specialty treatment into a weekly skincare regimen. Not recommended for individuals with severely compromised or actively irritated skin without professional guidance.
