Enzyme-rich rolling gel that peels, lifts and refines skin texture
Introducing the FIRMx™ Peeling Gel Exfoliant by Peter Thomas Roth — a high-performance peeling gel that visibly rolls, lifts and sweeps away dead skin cells, surface impurities and buildup through a unique massaging action. Infused with pineapple and pomegranate enzymes alongside keratinase and cellulose, it works to dissolve and remove surface debris while smoothing the look of skin texture and refining pores. The gel’s tactile rolling action offers a satisfying exfoliation experience and leaves skin feeling refreshed and renewed. Ideal for those seeking a vibrant glow and more even-looking complexion without heavy scrubs or rough granules.
This exfoliant is designed for all skin types—including normal, combination, oily, dry and mature—especially when uneven texture, dullness or clogged pores are a concern. The multi-action enzyme system helps decongest pores and reveal fresher skin, while glycerin and hyaluronic acid support hydration so skin isn’t left feeling stripped. Regular use 1-3 times per week helps maintain a smoother surface and improved skin clarity. With the brand’s heritage of advanced actives and visible results, this formula aligns with Peter Thomas Roth’s commitment to innovative, effective skincare.
- Who it’s best for: Skin with rough texture, dullness, visible pores or buildup; all skin types seeking smoother, brighter skin
- What makes it different: A gel that *rolls* away dead skin via enzymes + cellulose for gentle yet visible exfoliation without harsh abrasives
Due to manufacturer updates, packaging may vary from the image shown. Please note the product formulation remains the same.

How To Use FIRMx™ Peeling Gel Exfoliant
- Apply a generous amount to clean, dry skin — ensuring face is fully dry, not damp.
- Gently massage in circular motion until the gel visibly begins to roll and lift impurities; for deeper enzymatic exfoliation, leave on 1-5 minutes.
- Rinse thoroughly with water. Use 1 to 3 times a week depending on your skin’s sensitivity.
Pro Tip (from estheticians): For best performance, apply only to *completely dry* skin and avoid wet face; follow with a lightweight hydrating serum and moisturizer to lock in the smooth surface.

FAQs
Can I use this while pregnant or nursing?
The brand does not provide specific guidance on use during pregnancy or nursing for this exfoliant; please consult your physician before using exfoliating treatments.
Can I use this with retinol/retinal/acid exfoliants?
Yes — you can incorporate this gel into a routine with other exfoliants or retinols; since usage is only 1-3 times per week, schedule accordingly and ensure the skin is not over-exfoliated.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
The formula is designed for all skin types, but because enzyme + rolling exfoliation may be more intense, those with very sensitive skin should patch test and begin with once a week usage.
How long until I see results?
Users can feel smoother, more polished skin immediately after use as the dead surface skin is removed; visible texture improvement builds with repeated weekly use.
Can I use it around the eyes?
The brand does not recommend applying this product directly to the orbital eye area; avoid direct contact with the eye surface.
People Also Ask
Is FIRMx™ Peeling Gel Exfoliant good for acne-prone skin?
Yes — the exfoliating enzymes and cellulose help remove dead skin, lift impurities and unclog pores, which supports a clearer complexion for acne-prone and combination skin.
Can you use FIRMx™ Peeling Gel Exfoliant every day?
No — the brand specifies using 1-3 times per week depending on skin sensitivity, rather than daily use.
Does FIRMx™ Peeling Gel Exfoliant work under makeup?
While this product is a rinse-off treatment, by revealing smoother skin texture it can improve how makeup applies afterward; allow skin to fully absorb moisturizer before applying makeup.
How long does a jar of FIRMx™ Peeling Gel Exfoliant last?
Usage will vary depending on frequency and amount used — when used once weekly, the 3.4 fl oz size may last several months.
Is FIRMx™ Peeling Gel Exfoliant fragrance-free / oil-free?
The formula is marketed as oil-free and fragrance-free is not explicitly claimed; always check current packaging to confirm.
