Bought this to try for my very dry skin after reading the reviews, it’s made my whole face dry and red/blotchy and now very itchy on the dry patches! Gutted!
Urea is an ingredient that dermatologists absolutely love and recommend, but has been restricted to more pharmaceutical/medical type of creams because Urea is not a very appealing or "sexy" name to consumers. But the truth is that it's an amazing effective ingredient which, depending on the percentage strength, can either be super hydrating or can help exfoliate the skin. The 10% used in this formulation on the advice of dermatologists including myself is a great balance to get the hydration but also help with skin shedding. It's also suitable for psoriasis or eczema-prone skin.
