Dry skin

Our skin works hard to protect our bodies, but it can become very dry, cracked and irritated as a result. It needs SOS care.

Eucerin Aquaphor Repairing Ointment accelerates skin regeneration while Eucerin Aquaphor SOS Lip Repair supports fast lip skin regeneration. Both give dry, cracked and irritated skin the SOS care it needs. 

The Eucerin Aquaphor formulas form a semi-occlusive protective barrier over skin that supports the natural transfer of water vapor and oxygen to and from, allowing your skin to ‘breathe’ and strengthen its natural barrier function. Both contain Glycerin – an effective moisturizer that attracts water and helps to keep it in the skin – and Panthenol, which helps to speed up regeneration and repair while also moisturizing skin.

Dry skin contributes to the development of wrinkles, yet many anti-wrinkle products are not designed for people with dry skin. Dry skin is very sensitive, and it is important that any skin products used on dry skin do not irritate it, or compound the causes of dry skin. The Eucerin Hyaluron-Filler + Urea range is formulated with a combination of Urea and Hyaluronic acid which combat very dry skin and wrinkles in one single product. All products in the Eucerin Hyaluron-Filler + Urea range are dermatologically proven, tolerable, and suitable for people with Psoriasis.

Dry facial skin is often caused by a decrease in the skin’s natural production of lipids (or fats). When this happens, the skin is less effective as a protection barrier and feels sensitive, tight, rough and flaky.

Eucerin Lipo-Balance is an intensely nourishing cream that leaves skin soothed, relaxed, smooth and supple. By replenishing the lipid deficit skin's ability to restore it's hydro-lipid protection barrier is increased resulting in a long-lasting protection against dehydration.

Dry skin is a very common condition and often results in visits to dermatologists. Depending on the severity of dryness, skin can be tight and rough and/or prone to itching, scaling, flakiness and redness. In extreme cases, skin is pathologically dry (Xerosis).

The main reason for skin dryness is an impaired skin barrier function which results from: 

• A lack of lipids that help to protect skin from moisture loss.
• A deficit of Urea and Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF) which bind moisture into the skin.

All Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS products are formulated with a unique combination of ingredients:

• Urea and other Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF) to improve skin’s water-binding capacity and increase its moisture content. 
• Ceramides and other lipids to strengthen the skin barrier and protect against moisture loss.

The formula is clinically proven to replenish both lipids and moisture in the skin to give immediate relief. It delays the symptoms of dry skin for up 48 hours. Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS leaves skin looking and feeling smooth, soft and supple.

Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS offers a comprehensive range of products which includes a cleanser, body lotions and creams (including hand and foot care products) and an intensive treatment cream for problem areas of extremely dry skin. These products are available with different concentrations of water-binding active Urea, and the concentration used should vary according to the severity of dryness. The newly added scented Shower Foam and scented 5% Urea Lotion relieve dry skin and soothe the senses, for those who enjoy a pleasant scent.
