Eucerin UreaRepair 5% Urea Gentle Shower Cleanser - Refill

Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMFs) are water-soluble, moisture-binding compounds like amino acids, urea, and lactic acid found in the stratum corneum. The main benefits are:

• Moisturization:NMFs bind water and help maintain skin moisture by preventing moisture loss.
• Barrier function: By improving the skin's water-binding capacity, NMFs support a healthy and robust epidermal protective barrier.

Panthenol, also known as dexpanthenol or provitamin B5, is a derivative of vitamin B5. The active ingredient is excellent for soothing irritated skin as it regenerates the natural skin barrier and promotes healing. Due to its water-binding properties, panthenol is a highly effective moisturizer.
