Eucerin UREA REPAIR Night Face Cream 5%

Urea is a natural component of the skin's natural moisturizing factors (NMFs) and plays a crucial role in maintaining skin hydration and the protective barrier.
The main benefits include:

• Intensive Hydration: As a hygroscopic molecule, urea draws and retains water in the uppermost layers of the skin, effectively alleviating dryness, itching, and rough patches.
• Improved Skin Renewal and Smoothing: Thanks to its keratolytic properties, urea supports the natural shedding of dead skin cells, resulting in a soft and smooth skin surface.
• High Tolerance for Sensitive Skin: As urea is a natural substance, it is well tolerated by the skin and is excellently suited for dry and sensitive skin types.

Lactic acid is a skin-friendly component of the natural moisturizing factor (NMF) and belongs to the alpha hydroxy acids (AHA). It has a dual function in the stratum corneum:

• Moisturizing: Lactic acid reduces the formation of skin flakes and helps balance the skin's pH to combat dry skin symptoms.
• Comedone inhibitor: By supporting gentle exfoliation, lactic acid prevents the formation of blackheads and helps clear pores, leading to a smoother skin texture.
