SEBAMED Extreme Dry Skin Relief Face Cream — 5% Urea, 50 mL | Lightweight Hydration & Gentle Exfoliation

Sebamed Extreme Dry Skin Relief Face Cream 5% Urea is a lightweight facial treatment that combines gentle exfoliation with deep hydration to soothe and smooth very dry skin.

This 50 mL cream is formulated to target tightness, flaking and rough patches on the face by blending 5% urea with plant-derived actives. The formula aims to restore comfort and visibly improve texture while supporting the skin’s barrier without heavy greasiness. It’s designed for daily use on areas that need extra moisture and mild keratolytic support.

What does the 5% urea do for very dry facial skin?

At a 5% concentration, urea works as both a humectant and a mild keratolytic agent. It attracts and retains moisture while encouraging gentle exfoliation of flaky surface cells, helping skin feel softer and less tight over time.

• Improves hydration by drawing water into the skin
• Reduces visible flaking and roughness through mild exfoliation
• Supports smoother skin texture without strong irritation
• Suitable for targeted treatment on dry patches

How quickly will I notice improvements?

Many users notice reduced tightness and smoother texture within days of consistent use, while deeper hydration and barrier repair develop over a few weeks. Results vary by severity of dryness and frequency of application.

• Immediate: softer, less taut-feeling skin after application
• Days: decreased flakiness and improved comfort
• Weeks: enhanced skin resilience and long-lasting hydration

How should I use this cream in my daily skincare routine?

Apply a small amount to cleansed, dry skin once or twice daily, focusing on rough or tight areas. It pairs well with gentle cleansers and a sunscreen in the morning, and richer overnight products if extra repair is needed.

• Cleanse skin gently before application
• Use sparingly on affected patches or over the whole face as needed
• Layer sunscreen during daytime after the cream
• Combine with milder actives to avoid over-exfoliation

Is this suitable for sensitive or inflammation-prone skin?

The formulation is intended to be gentle; 5% urea offers exfoliation without the intensity of higher concentrations. Because skin sensitivity varies, patch testing is recommended before regular use on inflamed or reactive skin.

• Lower-strength urea reduces risk of irritation compared with stronger formulas
• Designed to hydrate while supporting barrier repair
• Patch-test behind the ear or inner forearm before full-face use
• Consult a dermatologist for severe or persistent conditions

Who is this for? This Sebamed 5% Urea face cream is meant for people with persistent facial dryness, flaky patches, or skin that feels tight and uncomfortable. It’s useful for those seeking a multifunctional cream that combines moisture retention with mild exfoliation, and for anyone who wants targeted relief without a heavy, greasy finish. If you have very reactive skin or an active dermatological condition, check with a healthcare professional before introducing new urea-containing products.
