Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS 5% Urea Hand Cream 75ml The skin on our hands is more exposed to external aggressors than on any other part of our body. Frequent hand washing means it is often in contact with water, as well as soaps and other chemicals, and subject to temperature changes. A stable barrier function protects us from these external factors and keeps skin hydrated. When the skin barrier is impaired, skin may lose moisture and hands can look and feel very dry, red and scaly. Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS 5% Urea Hand Cream contains Urea, Ceramide and other Natural Moisturising Factors (NMFs). It has been clinically proven to deliver both immediate relief and intense moisturisation for very dry, rough and strained hands, even after repeated hand-washing. It strengthens skin’s natural barrier, making skin resilient to dryness for up to 48 hours. Suitable for those with Xerosis, Psoriasis, Diabetes and mature skin. Also for adjunctive care.

How to Use

Squeeze a small amount of cream into your hand. Massage the cream into your hands until it is completely absorbed. Apply as often as necessary.

Main findings

  • Urea

    Urea is also produced naturally by the skin and is part of the essential Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) which regulates skin’s moisture content. Urea is hygroscopic, which means it is able to bind moisture into the outermost layer of skin, thus relieves itching and roughness, 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 all of these effects and very good study data, Urea is the gold standard in treating of dry skin.*

  • 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 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 skin’s natural barrier – locking in moisture and preventing dryness and irritation. ;

  • Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF)

    NMFs are a variety of water soluable compounds like amino acids, Urea and Lactic Acid which naturally occur in the stratum corneum (outer layer of the epidermis). They increase the water-binding capacity of the skin, keeping it well hydrated.

FAQ

Why do I need a special moisturizer for my hands?

The skin on our hands is more exposed to external aggressors than on any other part of our body. Frequent hand washing means the skin on our hands is often in contact with water, as well as soaps and other chemicals, and subject to temperature changes. A stable barrier function protects us from these external factors and keeps skin hydrated. However, when the skin barrier is impaired, skin may lose moisture and hands can look and feel very dry, red and scaly.

Our dedicated hand cream absorbs easily, is non-greasy and contains the balance of ingredients needed to help protect your skin from losing moisture. Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS 5% Urea Hand Cream offers immediate + 48h relief from dry skin. It soothes redness and smooths rough skin, keeping hands soft and moisturized, even with frequent handwashing

How can I tell if I have very dry skin or a skin condition or disease?

You can find information about dry skin as well as conditions such as Atopic Dermatitis and Psoriasis on this website. You can also take our skin test to find out more about your skin type and condition and how best to care for it. If you are still unsure, or concerned about your symptoms, we recommend you ask a pharmacist or dermatologist for advice.

    Nothing quite like it
    In my younger years I struggled with eczema and with the use of cortisone cream, my skin has certainly taken strain. I work in the building industry , often getting cement based products on my hands ( so abrasive ) I wash my dishes without gloves and I garden. Obviously sanitizer dries out hands too! Nothing has ever provided the moisture and protection like this for my hands and my nails, well no hang nails and I actually need to cut them too, for the first time in my life! Thank you for this outstanding product.

    Fixes hands and soothes instantly
    Great product! Helps with cracking skin around my nails and just dry, itchy, rough skin on my hands overall - from washing them and especially in the dry months. The thin, protective layer it leaves on the skin immediately after applying also works wonders for irritation. You have to reapply the stuff so infrequently it moisturises so well, and it’s worked miracles on my dry brittle nails too which are long and healthy now! My one friend also uses it on his hands for his severe eczema and it’s the only product out of many that he claims has worked the best. I’m definitely never using another hand cream again!
