It is ideal for use under make-up or after shaving.

FAQ

Why do I need a special moisturiser for my face?

Your face is generally exposed to the elements much more often than your body and therefore needs frequent moisturisation to prevent the effects of dry skin, such as itching, redness, scaling and irritation. Eucerin Dry Skin Replenishing Face Cream 5% UREA contains key ingredients that lock in moisture to maintain long-lasting hydration. Learn more about dry facial skin.

Why should I use Eucerin Dry Skin Replenishing Face Cream 5% UREA instead of just using a body product, such as Eucerin Replenishing Cream 5% Urea, on my face?

Facial skin is different to body skin, and Eucerin Dry Skin Replenishing Face Cream 5% UREA is specifically formulated for facial skin - it has a superior texture making it more easily absorbed and tolerated by facial skin. Read more about skin in different body areas.

Is Eucerin Dry Skin Replenishing Face Cream 5% UREA safe for children?

This product is suitable for use on children aged 3 years or more or from 1 year with medical supervision. If you want a product that is suitable for babies, try Eucerin AtoControl Body Care Lotion or Face Care Cream. Both of these products are suitable for babies.

I am not sure if I have dry skin, extremely dry skin, or a skin condition. How can I tell the difference

You can find information about dry skin on our website. If you are worried or unsure we recommend you see your doctor or pharmacist for face-to-face advice.

Reformulation is awful, bring back the old one :(
Been buying this for years and was the best moisturiser id ever used. Then they changed the formula without any announcement... the new formula is nothing like the old one. It used to be expensive but worth it, i dont even use the new one on my hands... Please bring the old one back, why change something that does so well? It was almost always sold out and from the other reviews people are feeling the same way.

Reformulated Product Sucks
I’d rate this 0/5 stars if I could. This used to be the best lightweight moisturizer - I used it for years because products with ceramides or niacinamide cause me to breakout and this was one of the few products that had neither. It was hydrating without feeling greasy, absorbed quickly, and caused zero irritation to my very sensitive and reactive skin. EVERYTHING about this reformulated product sucks - from the product to the packaging. The new formula is heavy, greasy, and does not absorb into the skin - it just sits on top. Unlike the previous formula that was thin and smooth, this is now a weirdly grainy yet somehow runny formula - and it seems to slowly leak out of the bottle and into the lid over time. Please just take the loss and revert back to your original formula.

Was my holy grail, now what?
I've been using this cream twice daily for 5 years. The formula change makes my skin break out. I am so disappointed!
