Eucerin Urea Repair Original 10% Urea Cream

Product Description

The Eucerin UreaRepair Original 10% Urea Cream is a highly concentrated moisturizing cream specifically formulated to provide immediate relief and long-lasting care for very dry, rough, and thickened skin. It is an intensive treatment that works to replenish the skin's natural moisturizing factors, particularly in areas like the elbows, hands, knees, and feet, which are prone to extreme dryness.

Key Ingredients and Benefits

The cream's effectiveness is due to its unique and powerful combination of ingredients:

• 10% Urea: This is the key active ingredient. Urea is a natural moisturizing factor (NMF) found in the skin. In high concentrations like 10%, it not only intensely hydrates the skin but also has a keratolytic effect, meaning it helps to gently exfoliate and break down the bonds between dead skin cells. This action softens rough, calloused patches and helps to restore the skin's smoothness.

• Lactate: Lactate is another natural moisturizing factor that works alongside urea to lock in moisture and maintain the skin's hydration.

• Glycerin: A humectant that draws water from the deeper layers of the skin to the surface, providing additional hydration and a smoothing effect.

• Ceramide: Ceramides are essential lipids that are a core component of the skin's natural barrier. The inclusion of ceramide helps to strengthen the skin's protective barrier, preventing moisture loss and protecting the skin from external irritants.

The combination of these ingredients provides a triple-action benefit:

1. Hydration: Immediately and deeply moisturizes very dry skin.

2. Exfoliation: Gently sloughs off dead, rough, and flaky skin.

3. Barrier Repair: Restores the skin's natural barrier to prevent future moisture loss.

The formula is fragrance-free and dye-free, making it suitable for even very sensitive skin.

How to Use

The cream is designed for regular, daily use.

Application Steps:

1. Apply the cream as often as needed to the affected areas.

2. Gently massage into the skin until it is fully absorbed.

3. For best results, it is recommended to apply the cream after bathing or showering while the skin is still slightly damp to lock in maximum moisture.

Due to its high concentration of urea, it is generally recommended to avoid applying it to open wounds or broken skin.
