INNA CODRU , MAY 18, 2018
Papaya contains the papain enzyme, which mainly acts as an antidote for age spots. The papain enzyme does what it takes to remove this dark spot - it exfoliates and removes dead skin cells, thereby evening out skin tone.
But most importantly, it inhibits the production of tyrosinase in your skin. This enzyme is the main culprit in the overproduction of melanin and the possible appearance of age spots.

!!! WARNING: Since papaya contains latex, do a forearm test to see if you are allergic to it, especially if you have sensitive skin.
