Moisturizing body lotion for dry skin with a delicate, soothing scent
When skin’s barrier function is stable, it protects us from external irritants and can maintain its optimal level of hydration. But when that barrier is impaired, skin can lose moisture and look and feel dry.
Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS 5% Urea Lotion gives dry, rough skin the daily care it needs. With a unique combination of ingredients – Urea, other Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMF) and Ceramides) – it binds in moisture and repairs skin´s natural barrier to prevent further moisture loss. The formula is clinically and dermatologically proven to deliver immediate relief and intense, long-lasting moisturization, delaying dryness and roughness for up to 48 hours.
Our dry skin lotion is lightly fragranced with skin-friendly ingredients proven to have anti-inflammatory properties and to be kind on dry skin. It is also free-from any perfumes known to cause allergies. It delivers all the benefits of dry skin relief with a soothing, delicate scent. Skin is intensely moisturized and looks and feels smooth and soft.
Suitable for adults, including those with mature skin and/or Diabetes, and for children age three and older. It can also be used for adjunctive care.
Clinically and dermatologically tested and proven
Studies prove very good efficacy and tolerability on dry and even on diseased skin.
Outstanding results
A Product in Use (PiU) study was conducted with 171 women with dry skin aged between 25 and 751. They reported the following results after using the product regularly for two weeks:
|
After 2 weeks |
Helps to reduce the feeling of dryness immediately after application |
98% |
Skin feels pleasantly smooth and supple again |
98% |
The product makes me feel good in my skin |
98% |
The product has a delicate perfume |
95% |
In a controlled in vivo skincare study (where the product is tested on volunteers), 100% agreed with the statement “my dry skin is immediately relieved” after a single application. And, 48h after that single application, 84% still agreed that “the lotion improves the condition of my dry skin".2
Further clinical and dermatological studies show that the product keeps skin moisturized for at least 48 hours after use3 and that fragrance itself has anti-inflammatory properties (in vitro).4
In a Real-World Evidence study involving 868 patients, 98% reported improved skin condition and said they would recommend this lotion to others.5

How it works
The main active ingredient is Urea: the ‘gold standard’ for dry skin treatment. Urea is a humectant (meaning it attracts water to the skin). It also increases the water-binding capacity of the skin and helps to maintain its barrier function. This improves elasticity and protects against moisture loss (known as transepidermal water loss or TEWL).
The Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS complex combines Urea with Ceramides, Gluco-Glycerol and other NMF that support Urea’s efficacy. Skin-identical Ceramides forms a protective lipid envelope to protect the outer layers of skin and enhance barrier function, while Gluco-Glycerol improves the distribution of water in deeper epidermal layers thereby hydrating skin from the inside out. This combination of moisturizing and lipid-replenishing ingredients provides excellent support for dry skin.
Ingredients List
Why do I need a special dry skin lotion for dry, rough skin?
A moisturizer specially formulated for dry, rough skin should be rich in the ingredients that skin needs to prevent moisture loss, bind in more water and strengthen its protective barrier. Left untreated or treated with a product that doesn’t contain the appropriate ingredients, skin might dry out further and may even crack.
Eucerin’s UreaRepair PLUS 5% Urea Lotion with soothing scent contains Urea and other NMF (to bind water into the skin) and Ceramides (to repair the skin barrier and reduce moisture loss). The formula gives immediate relief and delays the symptoms of very dry skin (such as roughness and scaliness) for up to 48 hours.
How can I tell if I have dry skin or a skin disease/condition?
You can find information about dry skin or Xerosis, as well as conditions such as Eczema (Atopic Dermatitis), Keratosis Pilaris (or chicken skin) and Psoriasis on this website. You can also take our skin test to find out more about your skin type and condition and how best to care for it. If you are still unsure, or concerned about your symptoms, we recommend you ask a pharmacist or dermatologist for advice.
What are the most effective ingredients for treating dry skin?
One of the best-known, tried and tested and most effective active ingredients for treating dry skin is Urea. It is considered the ‘gold standard’, based on its long history of efficacy and excellent research. You can find out more about it in Urea for the treatment of dry skin. Other actives that complement Urea and support its efficacy include Natural Moisturising Factors (NMF) such as Ceramides and Gluco-Glycerol.
Is it OK to use fragranced products on dry, sensitive skin?
Some perfumes can irritate sensitive skin. For this reason, people with dry, sensitive skin often choose fragrance-free formulations, thinking that they have to compromise on fragrance in favor of a product that effectively treats dryness.
The lightly scented products in the Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS range – Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS Urea Shower Foam and Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS 5% Urea Lotion with a soothing scent – combine proven effectiveness with a delicate, soothing and skin-friendly scent that is free-from perfumes known to cause allergies and is proven to be well tolerated by dry, sensitive skin. So now you can enjoy the best of both worlds without compromise.
If you prefer a fragrance-free moisturizer for your dry skin, we recommend Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS 5% Urea Lotion.
