How it works
The Dubai Peptide Clay Mask is a 100g wash-off mask, used after cleansing, in place of the toner step, on one or two evenings a week. The peptide it is built around is sh-Oligopeptide-1, named forty-seventh on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Protease, Bromelain and Lipase, so the peptide is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the sh-Oligopeptide-1 stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the wash-off mask format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the wash-off mask Dr. Melaxin sells in Korea, sh-Oligopeptide-1 and all.
Key benefits
- sh-Oligopeptide-1, the peptide this wash-off mask is built around
- Protease, Bromelain and Lipase on the same list, actives
- Papain on the same list, an exfoliant
- sh-Polypeptide-1 and sh-Oligopeptide-2 further down the same list
- sh-Polypeptide-22 and Castanea Crenata (Chestnut) Shell Extract further down the same list
- sh-Oligopeptide-1 named forty-seventh on the manufacturer list printed on this page
Key actives
sh-Oligopeptide-1peptide
sh-Oligopeptide-1 is a peptide made by yeast fermentation rather than synthesis, which is what the sh prefix records. It is used for the look of firmness and skin recovery after irritation. The name on the box points at it, and it is named forty-seventh on this wash-off mask's own ingredient list.
Proteaseactive
Protease is an enzyme that breaks down protein. In a cleanser or peel it loosens the protein bonds holding dead surface cells together, which is a gentler route to smoothness than an acid or a scrub. It is named forty-second on this wash-off mask's list, alongside sh-Oligopeptide-1.
Bromelainactive
Bromelain is the protein splitting enzyme group found in pineapple stem and fruit. In cosmetics it is used in enzyme formulas that loosen the keratin holding dead surface cells together. It is named forty-third on this wash-off mask's list, alongside sh-Oligopeptide-1.
Lipaseactive
Lipase is an enzyme that splits fats. In a cleanser or a mask it helps break down the oils sitting on the surface. The panel names it forty-fourth on this wash-off mask's list, beside sh-Oligopeptide-1.
Papainexfoliant
Papain is a protein-cutting enzyme from papaya. Enzyme exfoliants act on protein rather than on the bonds an acid targets, and they need water to work, which is why they suit powder washes. It is named forty-first on this wash-off mask's list, alongside sh-Oligopeptide-1.
Where does this wash-off mask go in my routine?
After cleansing, in place of the toner step, on one or two evenings a week. Toner goes on before it, and the rest of the routine goes on after you take the wash-off mask off. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the sh-Oligopeptide-1 and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market wash-off mask or a US version?
The Korean-market one, sh-Oligopeptide-1 and all. We match this wash-off mask to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
Does this wash-off mask contain fragrance?
Yes. The ingredient list names Fragrance. It sits on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this wash-off mask is not the one.
What else is on the list besides sh-Oligopeptide-1?
Protease, Bromelain and Lipase. The order they are printed in on this wash-off mask's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where sh-Oligopeptide-1 sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Papain, sh-Polypeptide-1 and sh-Oligopeptide-2.

How to use
- Cleanse first, then spread an even layer over the nose, chin and forehead on damp skin.
- Go thinner or skip the dry areas entirely, since a clay mask is not what dry cheeks need.
- Rinse it off at around ten minutes, while it is still slightly damp rather than fully dry.
- Do not let it dry hard and crack, because from that point on it is pulling water out of the skin.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this wash-off mask on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with sh-Oligopeptide-1 on the list.
- This list names Fragrance, so skip it if fragrance components are something you avoid.
- Citric Acid on this list makes this wash-off mask an exfoliating step, so do not stack it with another one on the same night.
