La Roche-Posay Lipikar Gel Urea 30% is a specific treatment for skin that needs deep hydration and a gentle exfoliating action, ideal for countering dryness and roughness in particularly problematic areas. Thanks to its advanced formulation, this gel offers immediate and long-lasting relief, helping to restore the skin's well-being. La Roche-Posay Lipikar Gel Urea 30%: silky, renewed skin
Intense hydration and gentle exfoliation
This gel combines the moisturising action of urea, present in a high concentration (30%), with the soothing properties of Niacinamide. Urea is a natural humectant that helps draw water into the skin, improving hydration and reducing dryness. It also has a gentle exfoliating action, removing dead cells from the skin's surface and promoting cell renewal. Niacinamide, on the other hand, is a powerful anti-inflammatory ingredient that helps soothe irritation and reduce redness. The combination of these two ingredients makes La Roche-Posay Lipikar Gel Urea 30% an ideal treatment for dry, rough and irritated skin.
Specific for dry, rough areas
Its formula is designed to be applied to specific areas of the body that tend to be drier and rougher, such as elbows, knees, feet and hands. Thanks to its gel texture, it is absorbed quickly without greasiness, leaving the skin soft and hydrated. This treatment is particularly suitable for those with hyperkeratosis, a condition characterised by excessive thickening of the skin's horny layer. La Roche-Posay Lipikar Gel Urea 30% helps reduce skin thickness, improving its appearance and texture. The high concentration of urea also makes it effective on calluses and hard skin. Thanks to its exfoliating action, it helps remove dead cells and prevent new thickening from forming.
Relief for the scalp
Not only the body: the scalp can also benefit from the properties of this gel. In case of dryness, flaking or irritation, La Roche-Posay Lipikar Gel Urea 30% can be applied locally to soothe itching and reduce dandruff. Its gentle formula respects the pH of the scalp, avoiding further irritation of the skin. The moisturising action of urea helps prevent dryness and keep the scalp healthy and hydrated. Unlike other scalp treatments, this gel contains no fragrance, colourings or preservatives, reducing the risk of allergies and irritation.
