And that’s all you need to know! Go pee in your moisturizer and say hello to nice skin. Hope you’ve enjoyed this blog post. Until next time…. Urea, a.k.a. carbamide, is an organic crystalline compound and the main nitrogenous breakdown product of protein metabolism. In other words, it’s a waste byproduct produced after the body uses protein.The exfoliating actions are strongest in creams containing more than 10 percent urea. Increases the action of some medications Indeed a problem with many moisturizers, since they don’t work on a cellular level like urea. ;D It’s no wonder the poor guy’s skin wasn’t improving with the regular stuff.

I always found this very reassuring though, cause if it works for the tough skin on feet, it’s bound to work on facial skin! Which leads me to how I found out about urea in the first place…. Some products, including some featured on our list, are only intended for use on the heels of your feet or other localized areas of the body as needed. Some products are gentle enough to use on your face.Urea is mainly known and used in dermatology for its keratolytic and hydrating properties. In other words, it hits the skin with a double whammy combo by both gently exfoliating and moisturizing at the same time. A rare feature of most therapeutic agents. Or as a pair of researchers put it… We found Aveeno’s hand cream light and non-greasy, which made it easy to apply on-the-go; you can be sure it won’t leave any residue on clothes or any items you’re handling when out. Unscented and mild, it’s gentle enough to use on patches of the skin that may already have eczema, or are simply dry and chapped. The cream makes hands softer and lasts well throughout the day. It’s extremely well priced, too, so you can apply as often as you like without fear of breaking the bank. Apart from reducing transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and gently exfoliating, it basically turns skin into Rambo! It’s also possible to find urea in doses as low as 2%. Low-dose urea works best as a moisturizing agent for dry skin. Low-dose urea may be used alongside other useful skin care ingredients, or it can be used alone for moisturization. Low-dose urea is safe enough to use on facial skin.
