UMBREX 30
Cream with urea 30%
Quick-acting keratoreducer
Description
Cream with 30% lipostabilized urea. Kerato-reducing treatment for dry and scaly skin layers, localized skin thickening (feet, hands, elbows, nails, knees) or extensive (pilary areas, ingrown hairs). Used regularly, it helps make the skin clean, elastic and hydrated. It is not greasy, it is quickly absorbed by the skin, providing a prompt and prolonged effect. Its innovative formula also offers a refreshing and soothing action. Urea is an organic compound that, when used topically, can have a hydrating or keratolytic effect, depending on the concentration used. The hydrating effect is obtained using low concentrations and is due to an increase in water binding sites at the level of the stratum corneum and a reduction in trans-epidermal water dispersion. The keratolytic and keratoric effect is obtained at higher concentrations (30-50%) and the mechanism seems to be the alteration, through the breaking of hydrogen bonds, of the quaternary structure of the keratins of the stratum corneum. Urea is thus able to denature and disperse the keratin and to thin the stratum corneum without damaging the skin barrier.
How to use
Apply 1 or 2 times a day, on clean and dry skin. Massage until completely absorbed. Temporary tingling sensations may occur on more sensitive skin.
Components
Contains 30% pure lipostabilized urea.
Warnings
Cosmetic for external use. Keep out of reach of children under 3 years of age.
