Why Urea Is the Secret to Smoother, Healthier Skin: A Dermatologist-Trusted Ingredient for Dry, Flaky Skin & Keratosis Pilaris

Why Urea Is the Secret to Smoother, Healthier Skin: A Dermatologist-Trusted Ingredient for Dry, Flaky Skin & Keratosis Pilaris

How Urea Works: Hydration + Gentle Exfoliation = Skin Renewal

Unlike many moisturizers that only sit on the surface, urea penetrates deeply—locking in hydration while gently smoothing rough texture. Its effectiveness depends on concentration:

  • 2–10% urea: Deep hydration, supports the skin barrier, relieves dry, tight skin

  • 10–20% urea: Adds mild exfoliation for flaky, bumpy, or dull skin

  • 20%+ urea: Ideal for thick, rough areas like heels or elbows; softens hardened skin and reduces itch

Why Dermatologists Recommend Urea

Urea is trusted by skin experts worldwide for its clinically proven results. Urea has been shown to:

  • Relieve itching and tightness

  • Improve skin barrier function

  • Accelerate skin regeneration

  • Treat conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and keratosis pilaris
