Hands get exposed to cold weather, water, soaps and other chemicals much more frequently than the rest of the body. This makes them more vulnerable to damage of the skin's barrier, resulting in moisture loss. The skin’s moisture start to deplete quite rapidly as we age.
What is Urea?
Eucerin Dry Skin Intensive Hand Cream contains 5% Urea to restore the skin’s natural balance and provide long lasting moisturisation.
- It is a natural component of our skin’s tissues and makes up to around 7% of our natural moisturising factor.
- Its role within the stratum corneum (the outer layer of skin), is to maintain a healthy moisture balance, keeping the skin soft and supple.
It is extremely hydrating and moisturising, and really helps bring relief thus soothing to a dry skin.
Benefits of Urea
• Often a dry skin is due to a reduction of Urea in the skins delicate tissues, which can lead to tightness and flakiness.
• It also has a very high water content, which helps to reduce the amount of water lost through the skin.
• It helps to accelerate the skins cellular renewal process.
• Urea works in synergy with other ingredients,that create the molecular structure of the skin, such as Lactic Acid.
An intense moisturiser perfect for this winter period when my hands are exposed to adverse environments. My cuticles often crack and my skin appears dull.
One application of this rich cream brought my dull skin back to life! My skin felt smooth, hydrated and nourished and my cuticles were softened. I anticipate no more cracked cuticle beds with continued use of this product!
The cream is absorbed immediately into the skin - no oily or creamy residue left on my skin. The ideal product to keep in my handbag during these cold winter months!
So this product is a bit on the pricey but it I definately worth it!!
With 5% urea, it replaces lost moisture and leaves my hands felling good, it does take a while to rub in, but that is the only draw back! Excellent for anyone that suffers with seasonal dry skin, ecxema or psoriasis!!
Speaking of which, my eucerin products are almost finished, better plan a trip to the pharmacy to restock!!!
