Papaya is a type of fruit that grows naturally in Mexico and throughout several tropical and sub-tropical areas in the Western hemisphere. Its active enzyme, papain, is used in soap to exoliate dead skin cells . Papain-based soaps are typically marketed specifically as papaya soap, and are believed to offer particular benefits due to their botanical content.The exfoliating properties of papaya soap also make it an effective acne treatment when it is used on the face or on other acne prone skin, according to "Healing Power of Papaya" by Barbara Simonsohn. This is because one of the primary causes of acne is the tendency for dead skin cells to clog the pores instead of being shed from the skin's surface normally. The American Academy of Dermatology reports that dead skin cells and excess sebum oil can accumulate inside hair follicles, causing a pimple to form, when the skin's natural exfoliating process doesn't work as it should. Only through manual exfoliation can this cause be treated or eliminated.
The special ability of papaya soap in breaking down proteins can also come in handy when trying to scrub certain types of stubborn stains out of fabrics, according to "Papaya: The Medicine Tree" by Harald W. Tietze. This soap is particularly effective at loosening and removing stains that are high in protein, such as blood.
