Aqua CareLotion for Dry Skin, with 10 Percent Urea - 8 fl oz

I read on the internet (always dangerous) that urea cream could get rid of keratosis pilaris, so I decided to give it a try. This cream also contains lactic acid, which also has been claimed (on the internet) to help keratosis pilaris. This cream doesn't make any claims to cure KP and it didn't make any noticeable improvement to the keratosis pilaris on my arms and legs. However, it is a good moisturiser for really dry skin. I have very dry, sun-damaged skin on my hands and I usually need to apply hand lotion about half a dozen times a day to stop it from getting cracked and dry. I only needed to apply this cream twice a day and my hands look healthier than they have done for years. It's non-greasy too, which was a problem I had with a different brand of urea cream. It doesn't smell the best, but the smell is much fainter than the other brand I used. It's a bit pricey, so I might look for a cheaper brand, but I will buy urea cream again for dry skin. I'll try something different for my keratosis pilaris. I also like the fact that the list of ingredients is fairly short compared to most moisturisers, the fewer chemicals on my skin the better in my opinion.

For the last year I had eczema on my hands. Whenever I would brush my hand against something or bump it on something--just the sort of thing you do normally when opening drawers or grabbing your wallet out of your pocket--my skin would scrape off leaving an open sore or a blood blister would form. These would take forever to heal. However, a French friend introduced me to a creme from Germany containing urea. I almost immediately noticed results. Of course, I could not find the German product online or in any shops in the US so I searched for an American analog. I decided to give "Aqua Care Lotion for Dry Skin, with 10 percent Urea" a try. The results have been great. My eczema seems in retreat or at least minimized AND as a positive side effect my skin is softening. This side effect is particularly welcome because areas that had been drying out due to aging, for example, the skin over my knuckles or finger joints, had not responded to other creams and lotions but do seem to be responding to this one.

I’ve been using this lotion for years at recommendation of dermatologist. The best for excessively dry skinUnfortunately this order arrived in an envelope and the bottles had leaked all over. The seller was very responsible and offered me a refund or replacement.

I was so happy when I found this product on Amazon. I used to buy it years ago, but then it disappeared from local stores and I never saw it again. This is really the only lotion I have used that has helped my very dry skin. Also, I live in a high desert environment with very low relative humidity. I used this Aqua Care lotion just once and noticed a difference in my skin. It felt softer and less dry. The only negatives: more expensive than drug store brands, and fragrance. It does not smell bad, but it does not smell great either. On the other hand, these are very minor annoyances. I'm just so happy to have found this product again. I don't know why it didn't occur to me to check Amazon sooner!

Availability and price along with prompt delivery is a big plus.

I've used a lot of skin creams and this one is the best and lasts a long time.
