NART: 69621-00000-35Read more about our product
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 Eucerin UreaRepair 5% Urea Moisturizing Lotion gives dry, rough body skin the daily care it needs.
It contains a unique formula with triple moisturizing complex – 5% Urea, Ceramides and other Natural Moisturizers – for immediate relief of rough, very dry skin signs: roughness, itchiness and tensed feeling:
1) 5% Urea intensively moisturizes and softens skin
2) Natural moisturizers improve the skins water-binding capacity which results in an increase of moisture content
3) In combination with lipids such as Ceramides the skins own, protective barrier is strengthend and moisture locked
The result: Intensive 48H moisture and strengthening of the protective skin barrier.
■ The skin feels pleasantly smooth and supple again
■ Skin is resilient and dry skin reoccurrence is delayed
■ The oil-in-water emulsion absorbs quickly and is non-sticky
■ Suitable for diseased skin like psoriasis, diabetes and keratosis pilaris adjunctive care
■ Fragrance free
How to Use
Gently massage the hydrating lotion into your skin until completely absorbed. Apply as often as required.

- UreaLearn More
Urea (also known as Carbamide) is 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. It is also keratolytic, meaning helps the skin to get rid of dead skin cells dead skin cells, to make it smooth again, and has anti-itch and anti-microbial properties. As a result, 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 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.
FAQ
Why do I need a special dry skin lotion for dry, rough skin?
A moisturizer specially formulated for dry, rough skin should be rich in the ingredients that skin needs to prevent moisture loss, bind in more water and strengthen its protective barrier. Left untreated, or treated with a product that doesn’t contain the appropriate ingredients, skin might dry out further and may even crack.
Eucerin’s UreaRepair PLUS 5% Urea Lotion contains Urea and other NMFs (to bind water into the skin) and Ceramide (to repair the skin barrier and reduce moisture loss). The formula gives immediate relief and delays the symptoms of very dry skin (such as roughness and scaliness) for up to 48 hours.
Is Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS 5% Urea Lotion safe for children?
This product is recommended for adults and has not been tested for children. For babies and children with dry skin and Atopic Dermatitis we recommend Eucerin AtopiControl. Most products in this range are suitable for babies over three months old.
How can I tell if I have dry skin or a skin condition or disease?
You can find information about dry skin as well as conditions such as Eczema (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.
How do I know if I should use Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS 5% or Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS 10%?
Your choice of product should depend on the level of dryness of your skin and the symptoms you experience. If your skin is dry and rough then 5% Urea should be a sufficient concentration to provide immediate and long-lasting relief. If your skin is very dry then a higher, 10% concentration of Urea will be more suitable for immediate relief and for delaying symptoms for up to 48 hours. If you are in any doubt, we recommend you ask a pharmacist or dermatologist for advice.
