Urea Care Moisturizers

Urea Care moisturizers are built for skin that ordinary lotions can't fix — the rough, cracked, flaking, and stubbornly dry skin that shows up on heels, elbows, knees, and hands, especially in older adults, people with diabetes, and anyone whose skin has lost its ability to hold moisture. Urea is a humectant that draws water into the skin while gently loosening thickened, hardened patches, which is why clinicians and caregivers reach for it when a standard moisturizer simply isn't enough.

This collection centers on the Urea Care Hand and Body Moisturizer with 10% Urea (543796), a scented formula that softens dry, calloused areas without leaving a heavy or greasy feel. The 10% strength sits in a practical middle ground: strong enough to smooth roughness and improve skin texture with regular use, gentle enough for daily full-body application on hands, arms, legs, and feet. It's a good fit for routine skin maintenance in home care, assisted living, and long-term care settings where dry skin is a constant.

A few things buyers commonly ask: How is urea different from regular lotion? Urea both hydrates and exfoliates, so it works on thickened skin that plain emollients only sit on top of. How often should it be used? Once or twice daily, applied to clean skin and worked in fully — consistency matters more than quantity. Is 10% right for me? Ten percent handles everyday dryness and mild roughness; heavily calloused or hyperkeratotic skin sometimes calls for a higher-strength formula, so match the percentage to the severity you're treating.

If you're stocking a broader skin regimen, it's worth comparing options across our Alera Skin Care Products and Amerx Health Care collections to build a complete cleansing, moisturizing, and skin-protection routine.
