Eucerin Urea Repair 10% Urea Intensive Moisturizing Lotion 250 ML
Immediate + 48h relief for very dry, rough skin
Description
Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS 10% Urea Lotion gives very dry, rough body skin the daily care it needs. It contains a unique combination of ingredients—urea, Ceramide and other natural moisturizing factors (NMFs)—that bind moisture in and repair skin's natural protective barrier to prevent further moisture loss. The formula has been clinically and dermatologically proven to deliver immediate relief and intense, long-lasting moisturization, delaying dryness and roughness for up to 48 hours. Skin is intensely moisturized and looks and feels smooth and supple again.
When the skin on our bodies has a stable barrier function, it protects us from external irritants and is able to maintain its optimal level of hydration. But when that barrier is impaired, skin can lose moisture and look and feel dry as a result.
The lotion is suitable for mature skin and those with diabetes, Psoriasis and keratosis r mature skin and those with diabetes, psoriasis, and keratosis pilaris. It can also be used as adjunctive care.
How to Use
* Gently massage the lotion into your skin until completely absorbed
* Apply as often as required
the components
We select all our ingredients with the utmost care and never compromise on quality. Learn more about the main ingredients of this product.
Urea
Urea is also produced naturally by the skin and is part of the essential Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF), which regulates the skin's moisture content. Urea is hygroscopic, which means it can bind moisture into the outermost layer of skin, thus relieving itching and roughness and helping to fight dry skin symptoms. It is also keratolytic, meaning it improves natural exfoliation and soothes and smoothes the skin’s surface. As a substance produced naturally by the skin, urea is well-tolerated even by dry and sensitive skin. Because of all of these effects and very good study data, Urea is the gold standard in treating dry skin.
Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF)
NMFs are a variety of water-soluble compounds like amino acids, Urea, and lactic acid that naturally occur in the stratum corneum (outer layer of the epidermis). They increase the water-binding capacity of the skin, keeping it well hydrated.
Ceramides
Ceramides are important lipids in the hydrolipid film (which protects the external layers of skin). Produced naturally in healthy skin, they strengthen the skin barrier, helping to prevent moisture loss due to evaporation and keeping out irritants that can cause inflammation and itching. When the skin’s ceramide levels fall, the skin barrier is impaired. Skin can start to lose water and become dry and irritated.
Eucerin uses synthetic ceramides that are biologically identical and that enhance the skin’s natural barrier, locking in moisture and preventing dryness and irritation.
