Dr. Sufis Papaya Brightening Face Wash is a fruit enzyme face wash built on clinical science. It targets dullness, uneven tone, and excess oil — all at once.
Therefore, every wash does more than clean. It gently exfoliates. It brightens. It rebalances.
This papaya extract face wash combines the natural power of Carica Papaya Fruit Extract with Chaenomeles Sinensis (Japanese Quince). Together, they deliver visible radiance without irritation. Moreover, Panthenol and Vitamin E actively nourish the skin barrier while cleansing.
A Formula Built with Purpose
This is not a generic cleanser. Dr. Sufis formulated this face wash for glowing skin with a precise, soap-free structure. As a result, it maintains the skin’s natural pH — a critical factor most cleansers ignore.
Additionally, the gentle lather lifts impurities without stripping moisture. So even after deep cleansing, skin feels soft, balanced, and calm. For oily and combination skin types especially, this balance makes all the difference.
Removes Tan and Uneven Pigmentation — Papaya enzymes gently dissolve surface pigmentation. With consistent use, tan lines and sun-darkened patches fade more evenly. It works best when used morning and night.
Exfoliates Without Harshness — Unlike physical scrubs, this gentle exfoliating face wash uses fruit enzymes. Therefore, it lifts dead skin cells without micro-tears or redness. Your skin gets smoother — not raw.
Controls Excess Oil Intelligently — Cocodiethanolamide and Cocamidopropyl Betaine regulate sebum. However, they do not strip the skin dry. The result is a clean, matte finish that lasts through the day.
Brightens Dull, Tired Skin — Japanese Quince Extract works alongside Papaya to reduce oxidative dullness. So even after long days, skin looks refreshed rather than flat and tired.
Strengthens the Skin Barrier — Panthenol (Vitamin B5) deeply hydrates as it cleanses. Additionally, Vitamin E shields skin from environmental stress. Together, they keep the barrier strong and resilient.
Hero Ingredient: Carica Papaya Fruit Extract
Papaya is nature’s enzyme powerhouse. It contains Papain — a natural exfoliating enzyme that breaks down dead skin cells gently. Therefore, it brightens tone, softens texture, and reduces tan over time. Unlike harsh chemical exfoliants, Papain works at the surface without disrupting healthy skin cells.
Supporting Ingredients That Matter
Chaenomeles Sinensis (Japanese Quince) Fruit Extract — A lesser-known but highly effective brightening agent. It helps even skin tone and boosts radiance alongside Papaya.
Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5) — Attracts and retains moisture. As a result, skin feels hydrated and plump even after cleansing — not tight or stripped.
Vitamin E (Tocopherol) — A clinically recognized antioxidant. It protects skin from daily oxidative stress and supports a healthy, even-toned complexion.
Cocamidopropyl Betaine — A mild, plant-derived surfactant. It produces a gentle lather that cleanses without over-drying. Moreover, it makes this a true soap-free cleanser.
Step 1 — Wet Your Face (10 seconds) Splash lukewarm water on your face. Avoid hot water. Hot water breaks down the skin barrier over time.
Step 2 — Apply the Face Wash (20 seconds) Take a small amount — roughly the size of a chickpea. Apply it directly to damp skin.
Step 3 — Lather Gently (30–40 seconds) Work the product into a lather using circular, upward motions. Focus on the T-zone, nose, and chin — areas prone to oil and congestion.
Step 4 — Rinse Thoroughly (20 seconds) Rinse with cool or lukewarm water. Make sure no residue remains along the hairline or jawline.
Step 5 — Pat Dry Use a clean, soft towel. Pat gently — do not rub. Follow immediately with your moisturizer or serum.
Pro Tip: Use this face wash twice daily — morning and night — for best results. In the morning, it removes overnight oil and prepares skin for sunscreen. At night, it clears pollution, makeup residue, and sweat from the day. Additionally, consistent use is key. Most users notice a visible improvement in skin tone and texture within 3 to 4 weeks of regular use.
Expected Results Timeline:
- Week 1–2: Skin feels cleaner, less congested
- Week 3–4: Visible reduction in dullness and tan
- Week 6–8: Noticeably brighter, more even skin tone
Results vary based on skin type, lifestyle, and consistency of use. No overnight miracles — just real, gradual progress.
This face wash is designed for a wide range of skin types and concerns.
Oily and Combination Skin — If your T-zone gets shiny by midday, this face wash is built for you. It controls excess oil without dehydrating the rest of your face. As a result, skin stays balanced rather than see-sawing between oily and tight.
Dull or Tan-Prone Skin — If sun exposure leaves your skin looking flat, tired, or uneven, the papaya enzyme and Japanese Quince extract work together to restore clarity gradually.
People Who Prefer Gentle Exfoliation — Not everyone tolerates physical scrubs. Therefore, this fruit enzyme face wash is a better alternative for those who need exfoliation but have sensitivity to texture.
Those Switching from Harsh Cleansers — If your current face wash leaves skin feeling stripped or squeaky, this pH balanced face wash offers a gentler, smarter cleanse. Moreover, it won’t interfere with your existing skincare routine.
Use with care if you have a known allergy to fragrance, Methylisothiazolinone, or any listed ingredient. When in doubt, patch-test first on your inner wrist for 24 hours.

At Dr. Sufis, the philosophy is simple: skincare should be effective, safe, and honest. No inflated claims. No trendy gimmicks. Just clinical thinking translated into everyday products.
Because your skin deserves the same standard of care a dermatologist would recommend — at every wash.
Yes, absolutely. This face wash is formulated for twice-daily use — morning and evening. The mild surfactant system and pH-balanced formula make it suitable for everyday cleansing. It does not over-strip or irritate with regular use.
This formula is gentle and soap-free, which suits most skin types. However, if you have very reactive skin or known allergies — especially to fragrance or preservatives — we recommend doing a patch test first. Apply a small amount to your inner wrist and wait 24 hours before full use.
Most users notice softer, cleaner skin within the first 1 to 2 weeks. Additionally, visible brightness and tan reduction typically appear by week 3 to 4 with consistent use. Results depend on skin type, sun exposure, and how regularly the product is used.
This face wash effectively removes light makeup, sunscreen, and daily pollution. However, for heavy or waterproof makeup, we recommend using a dedicated makeup remover first. Follow up with this face wash as your second cleanse for best results.
Yes. The formula works equally well for men. It controls oil, cleanses deep, and brightens skin regardless of gender. Moreover, men with oily or combination skin will particularly benefit from its sebum-regulating properties.
This is primarily a brightening and cleansing face wash, not an anti-acne treatment. However, regular use removes excess oil, dead skin cells, and congestion — all of which contribute to breakouts. Therefore, it supports clearer skin as part of a broader skincare routine.
Yes. All Dr. Sufis products are dermatologically tested and validated. The formulation follows clinical standards for pH, preservative safety, and ingredient compatibility. Dr. Sufia personally reviews each formula before it reaches the market.
While the ingredients are generally considered safe, we always recommend consulting your gynaecologist or dermatologist before introducing new skincare products during pregnancy. This is a precautionary standard — not a specific concern with this formula.
Store the face wash in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid leaving it in hot, humid areas like inside a shower cabinet for prolonged periods. Additionally, always close the cap tightly after use to maintain the integrity of the formula.
