Home Bargains has slashed the price of a dermatologist-approved moisturiser that’s “perfect for sensitive or eczema-prone skin”. The retailer has discounted the popular The Inkey List 10% Urea Moisturiser 50ml, which has garnered a loyal following among shoppers.
Describing the benefits, The Inkey List says: “Urea is both a humectant, like Hyaluronic Acid, and a keratolytic meaning that it not only draws moisture from the environment to the skin, but it also helps to slough off dead skin, by softening the outer most layer of the skin, known as the stratum corneum.”
The Inkey List’s Urea Moisturiser comes highly recommended, with hundreds of positive reviews online, reports the Mirror. Dr Jenny Liu, a board-certified dermatologist, praised the product on YouTube: “If you have more dry skin or you’re looking for a more nourishing moisturiser, then you must check out their Dry and Rough Skin Solutions 10% Urea Moisturiser. I am obsessed with this product… Urea offers great hydration, so your skin is going to feel more smooth and hydrated.”
A satisfied customer on The Inkey List’s website said: “I have had eczema on my face since I was 12, I’ve always struggled with managing it, since using this my skin has completely cleared, of course I still have flare ups when I’m stressed but this calms my skin within 10 minutes of using it, it’s brilliant!”
A second shared: “I used this after coming back from holiday, where cold weather really dried my skin out. The instant hydration was a life saver, and with continued use my skin was plump and glowy. A dry skin must!”
A different reviewer said: “I am not the person to write reviews BUT felt I had to regards to this brilliant moisturiser. I am old – 74 and have horrendously dry skin and chapped lips. I have tried all moisturisers both expensive and inexpensive all to no avail and then along comes this amazing ‘stuff’, I use it along with Inkeys serums and I can honestly say that my skin has improved more than I could ever had imagined.”
On LookFantastic’s website, a customer added: “Love this moisturiser, it’s perfect for dry skin. I don’t find it sticky or greasy, my skin feels so soft.” Another reviewer said: “I purchased this cream from the recommendation of my doctor. I have Actinic keratosis and before starting topical chemotherapy, I was told to use a 10% urea cream. After reading reviews, I chose this one. It’s very nourishing and seems to have reduced the size of the extremely dry patches of AK.”
However, it’s essential to note that everyone’s skin is unique, and not all reviewers reported positive results. If you have skin concerns or want a second opinion before trying a new product, consult your GP.
