Urea
What is Urea?
Urea is a naturally occurring compound found in the skin that helps maintain moisture and support skin renewal. In skincare, it is used in carefully controlled concentrations to hydrate, soften, and gently exfoliate the skin. Despite its name, cosmetic-grade urea is synthetically produced and completely safe.
What are the benefits of Urea?
- Deeply hydrates: Acts as a humectant, attracting and retaining moisture to keep the skin soft, supple, and well-hydrated.
- Strengthens the skin barrier: Helps maintain the skin’s natural protective layer, reducing dryness and sensitivity.
- Gently exfoliates: Encourages the natural shedding of dead skin cells, improving skin texture without irritation.
- Soothes rough or dry patches: Especially beneficial for dry, flaky, or eczema-prone skin, including common problem areas like elbows, knees, and hands.
