Balneum Plus Cream Pump – 500g

Balneum Plus Cream contains two active ingredients, Urea and Lauromacrogols. Urea is a substance naturally occurring in the skin, and is attracted to water. People with dry skin conditions have decreased amounts of Urea in their skin, so applying Urea can help replace it. When Urea is applied to the skin it penetrates the outer layer, where it readily absorbs and retains water. This increases the capacity of the skin to hold moisture, and the skin therefore becomes re-hydrated. This soothes and softens the skin, and reduces the scaling and itching of dry skin conditions. The other active ingredients of Balneum Plus Cream are Lauromacrogols, which have the properties of local anaesthetics. When applied to the skin they soothe and relieve itching. The combination of these medicines in Balneum Plus Cream relieves dryness and itching of the skin in scaly skin conditions such as Eczema, Dermititis and problem dry skin. These conditions worsen if the skin is allowed to become dried out.
