Deep Moisturizing UREA
Nature’s Own Skin Moisturizer

Urea is an important part of your skin’s natural moisturizing system.

The body uses manufactured urea in much the same way as the urea naturally found in the skin. Scientists call it a true “humectant” because it is an important component of the body’s Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF). Urea causes hard dry skin cells to "unpack" and expose their water binding sites, thus enabling the cell to absorb and retain additional moisture. This action is also known as hydrotopic solubilization and several independent clinical investigations and studies prove that it works.

It’s a little like taking the plastic wrapper off a sponge so it can absorb better!

Unfortunately, urea on its own does not feel like a good moisturizing lotion. It actually leaves the skin feeling dry to the touch. That is what makes DERMAL THERAPY an effective formula. The pharmacists and scientists who developed DERMAL THERAPY use a special stabilized urea formulation that is balanced and blended with other moisturizing ingredients including pure silk proteins and alpha hydroxy acids.

The results are efficacious moisturizing formulations that actively replenish moisture deep in to the skins layers and leave the skin looking silky smooth and feeling wonderful.
