La Roche-Posay Lipikar Lait Urea 5+ 400ml

La Roche-Posay Lipikar Lait Urea 5+ is a smoothing lotion formulated for rough, dry and flaky skin on the body (arms, elbows, legs). It helps to reduce irritation in sensitive skin and leaves the skin feeling hydrated and soothed. Suitable for children, adults and seniors.

Key ingredients include Shea Butter is a natural fat packed with antioxidants with anti-inflammatory, healing and moisturising properties. Urea helps to exfoliate dead skin cells from the surface of the skin while pro-peeling agents help to moisturize the skin and replenish lipids, smoothing without discomfort. Allantoin is a soothing, hydrating, and anti-inflammatory skin care ingredient that promotes healing by encouraging cellular renewal. La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water, a real wonder of nature, is a prebiotic that reduces sensitivity with its soothing, antioxidant properties due to its unique Selenium content – a mineral that protects the cellular metabolism. Dermatologically tested. Contains a fragrance.

Dr Webster’s Recommendation: La Roche-Posay Lipikar Lait Urea 5+ with a highly effective formula helps to reduce the rough appearance of the skin while reinforcing the cutaneous barrier. Urea is humectant i.e. it attracts water into the skin and this melt-in texture provides a velvety, non-sticky and non-greasy finish. It can also be used to reduce the symptoms of atopic eczema, asteatotic eczema (winter eczema), keratosis pilaris and ichthyosis (genetically dry skin). Ideal for those rough patches on the arms, legs, and elbows. It has been tested on the skin of people with diabetes.

Caution: Not for use on the face or on broken and/or infected skin.
