Flexitol 10% Urea Cream for Dry and Cracked Skin

You can rely on Flexitol 10% Urea Cream to provide effective relief for dry, rough, and cracked skin. This therapeutic moisturiser contains 10% urea, a naturally occurring compound that helps restore your skin's moisture balance and smoothness.

The 150g tube provides long-lasting treatment for areas prone to dryness, particularly your feet, heels, elbows, and knees. This urea cream works by drawing moisture into your skin whilst gently removing dead skin cells that contribute to roughness and scaling.

How Urea Works to Restore Your Skin

Urea functions as both a humectant and a keratolytic agent in this formulation. As a humectant, it attracts and retains moisture from the surrounding environment, helping to keep your skin hydrated for longer periods.

The keratolytic properties mean urea helps break down the bonds between dead skin cells, allowing them to shed more easily. This dual action helps reveal smoother, softer skin underneath whilst preventing the build-up of thick, dry patches that can become uncomfortable or unsightly. You'll find this particularly beneficial for areas like your heels and elbows where skin tends to become thicker and more resistant to regular moisturisers.

Who Benefits from 10% Urea Concentration

This cream suits you if you experience persistent dry skin that doesn't respond well to standard moisturisers. The 10% urea concentration makes it particularly effective for moderate to severe dryness, including conditions like xerosis or rough, scaly skin patches.

You may find this treatment especially helpful if you have:

Dry, cracked heels or feet
Rough, scaly patches on elbows or knees
Skin that feels tight or uncomfortable due to dryness
Areas where regular moisturisers provide insufficient relief

The cream works well alongside other skin care products in your routine, though you should allow it to absorb fully before applying additional treatments.

Why Choose a Targeted Dry Skin Treatment

Unlike basic moisturisers, this therapeutic cream addresses the underlying causes of persistent dryness. The urea concentration is specifically formulated to penetrate deeper into your skin layers, providing more substantial and longer-lasting hydration than standard lotions.

Regular use helps restore your skin's natural barrier function, reducing water loss and improving overall skin texture. You'll notice gradual improvement in skin smoothness and comfort, with continued use helping to prevent the return of severe dryness.

Clinical Suitability and Storage Requirements

This cream is suitable for adults and children over 12 years of age. You should store it at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and heat sources to maintain its effectiveness.

The tube design allows for hygienic application whilst protecting the cream from contamination. You can use this treatment as part of your daily skincare routine, applying it to clean, dry skin as needed.

This product is a medicine. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

How to Apply Flexitol Urea Cream

You should apply a thin layer of cream to the affected areas of clean, dry skin. Gently massage the cream into your skin until it is fully absorbed, paying particular attention to areas of dryness or roughness.

When and How Often to Use

You can use this cream once or twice daily, or as directed by your healthcare professional. For best results, apply the cream after bathing or showering when your skin is still slightly damp, as this helps lock in additional moisture. You should wash your hands thoroughly after application unless you are treating your hands specifically.

Potential Side Effects of Urea-Based Treatments

Like all medicines, Flexitol 10% Urea Cream can have side effects, although not everyone will experience them. Most people tolerate urea-based treatments well, but you should be aware of possible reactions, especially when starting treatment or if you have sensitive skin. You can find additional support through our creams and ointments collection if you need alternative options.

The most commonly reported side effects include mild skin irritation, temporary stinging, or slight redness at the application site. These effects typically subside as your skin adjusts to the treatment.

Possible side effects may include:

Mild burning or stinging sensation upon application
Temporary skin redness or irritation
Slight itching at the treatment site
Skin peeling or flaking as dead cells are removed
Increased skin sensitivity in treated areas
Dryness or tightness immediately after application
Allergic reactions in sensitive individuals
Contact dermatitis in rare cases

If you experience these or any other side effects, speak to your doctor or pharmacist right away. For more information about reporting side effects please see the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme.
