Frequently Asked Questions

Urea is a keratolytic agent, which means it does two jobs at once. It acts as a powerful humectant to pull water into the skin and gently dissolves the bonds between dead skin cells. This makes Flexitol Very Dry Skin Cream more effective than basic moisturizers for thick, rough, or dry patches.

While this cream is incredibly effective for the body, it can be used on very dry facial patches if used sparingly. However, if you have sensitive facial skin, we recommend a patch test first.

For the best results, apply the cream two to three times daily. It is richly formulated, so a small amount goes a long way. Many users see a noticeable difference in skin texture and softness within the first 24 hours of use.

The best Urea cream should combine high-percentage Urea with skin-soothing emollients like Shea Butter and Vitamin E. The Flexitol Very Dry Skin range is a popular choice because it provides clinical-strength hydration while remaining non-greasy and accessible without a prescription.

I was suffering with a swelling and itchy eyelid – I spotted this cream at a
Flexitol display in London Drugs, and decided to give it a try. Just shy of two weeks later,
the eyelid is no longer swollen, the dry skin is almost gone.

I am amazed at how fast this works. I have tried several other products in addition to using
a foot file to soften my heels which had become hard and dry. This is the only product
that has truly worked. I have noticeda HUGE difference in my heels just after 2 days.
