## Description

From the manufacturer

Review: Fantastic moisturiser - This is my holy grail moisturiser for dry skin! It is thick and rich but absorbs quickly. My skin is sensitive and my legs often sting after shaving but this immediately soothes my skin. It doesn’t have sexy packaging but it’s fantastic quality and value for money. I love that it is in a tube and not a tub, so I don’t have to dig my fingers in (also more hygienic) and it’s easy to apply. Personally, I like that it is fragrance free
Review: Amazing cream - Thought I would try this urea cream instead of my usual Eucerin one as it’s a lot cheaper but sounded a bit similar. I’m very pleased I did as I prefer it and the bottle is huge so will last a long time, making it even better value for money. I have sensitive, acne/redness prone combination skin and I use this on my face twice daily - it absorbs really well, not greasy, doesn’t break me out, leaves skin soft, supple, smooth, soothed and hydrated. My skin feels healthier and I don’t feel I need to exfoliate my face either as much or at all with this! My make up goes on/looks better now too. I might start using it as a body cream as well. Highly recommended!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used on the arm?**
A: Yes, while I predominantly use it on my hands but as somebody bothered with dry skin I sometimes use it on arms and legs to good effect. I have also noticed that I am have been needing far less steroid cream on my hands since I started using it.

**Q: Why add Titanium dioxide to the formulation? This is not a sunscreen, I’ve researched it and can’t understand why it is in there?**
A: Titanium dioxide is used in toothpaste also!... it gives the creams their white colouring and works as a thickening agent. That's its only use in this particular formula, only titanium dioxide in high amounts can be classed as a sunscreen! :)

**Q: Why is there titanium dioxide in this? its absorption damages cell membranes according to western price's sunscreen post. is it non nano at least?**
A: Hi, thank you for your question. 

Titanium dioxide is an approved UV-filter. 

Nano technology allows a great cosmetic feel - the feedback has been fantastic. Concerns regarding nanotechnology are because people worry that small particles may pass through the skin. However, on the whole, in sunscreen technology nano actually means big - the nano particles are larger than the other chemical filters that are typically smaller. 

I hope this helps.

**Q: Is this vegan?**
A: There is nothing written on the box to say that it is.

Good cream. Not sticky. Moisturises well. Not too thick but not runny either, good consistency, spreads in nicely and absorbs well. Leaves the skin feeling nice.
