Skin Federation Urea Body Smoothing Cream (75ml)

This Urea Body Smoothing Cream is a non-comedogenic and fast absorbing formula designed for dry, rough and bumpy skin patches on the body. The formula contains two powerhouse moisturising ingredients, Urea and Lactic Acid. They both occur naturally in our skin as part of our natural moisturising factor (NMF). They are effective humectants that hold onto water and provide deep moisturising to tackle dry, flaky and itchy skin. They are also effective keratolytic agents meaning they can help reduce dead skin build up on the surface to smoothen rough and bumpy skin. Keratolytics are especially helpful in skin conditions caused by clogged hair follicles such as Keratosis pilaris (KP) commonly known as strawberry skin or chicken skin. Colloidal Oatmeal in this formula contains lipids that nourish, moisturise and soften the skin texture to combat roughness and flakiness. These lipids re-enforce the skin barrier and replace skin's lost oils in dry and irritated skin. It also has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that help decrease itchiness and redness for an effective soothing action. Betaine in this formula is an osmoprotectant which occurs naturally in our skin and controls the right water balance in cells to protect skin cells against dehydration. Shea Butter is a naturally occurring plant oil that contains many beneficial nutrients including vitamins A, E and F as well as anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compounds. It effectively locks in moisture and softens the skin without clogging pores.
