Product Summary

"Topicrem - UR-30 Anti-Roughness Soothing Cream" has a good moisturizing formula. To work well, any moisturizer needs to include a combination of water-binding and emollient ingredients. Topicrem - UR-30 Anti-Roughness Soothing Cream ticks this box. Urea, glycerin, glycine and saccharide isomerate in this product (humectants) attract water molecules to the upper layer of the skin (the water comes from the outside air or from the deeper layers of the skin if the air is dry). Emollients in this formulation (beeswax, cera alba, helianthus annuus seed oil, cetyl alcohol and arachidyl alcohol) help to reduce the moisture loss from the skin. They also soften the skin surface and relieve the feeling of dryness and tightness.

This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: vitamin e and allantoin

What does the product description say?

UR-30 Anti-Roughness Soothing Cream

Source: From product name

This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.

The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water. When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job: glycerin, glycine.

This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: beeswax, cera alba.

The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: urea

Urea9.4% - 11.5%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

Naturally present in skin (urea makes up about 7% of natural moisturizing factors in skin). Attracts water to the upper layer of the skin. Also has a positive effect on the skin barrier beyond the humectant action. Can enhance penetration of other ingredients. Is an exfoliating ingredient when used in high concentrations

Glycine2.4% - 2.9%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

Helps to attract water to the upper layer of the skin and can help restore the skin barrier function

Helianthus annuus seed oil1.8% - 2.2%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

A great emollient due to its high linoleic acid content. One of the most effective plant oils in helping skin hydration and repairing skin barrier function

Saccharide isomerate0.1% - 0.2%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

Helps attract water to the upper layer of the skin

Cera alba0.6% - 0.85%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

Forms a protective barrier that holds water and keeps dry skin hydrated. Keeps an emulsion from separating into its oil and liquid components, and increases the thickness of a product. Can be an allergen

Beeswax0.45% - 0.7%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

Forms a protective barrier that holds water and keeps dry skin hydrated. Keeps an emulsion from separating into its oil and liquid components, and increases the thickness of a product. Can be an allergen

Glycerin4.3% - 5.2%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:HIGH

One of the best moisturizing ingredients. Naturally present in skin. It attracts water to the upper layer of the skin working as a humectant

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:MEDIUM

A non-drying alcohol that works to soften the skin and stabilize product formulations helping oil and water mix together

Dicaprylyl carbonate3.3% - 4%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:LOW

Helps products spread more easily and works as an emollient to soften skin

Arachidyl alcohol1.5% - 1.9%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:LOW

Used to soften the upper layer of the skin and create a thicker product consistency

Behenyl alcohol0.65% - 1%

Irritation risk:Concentration:Effectiveness:LOW

Non-drying alcohol that helps water and oil mix together. Also serves as an emollient

Cetearyl ethylhexanoate2% - 2.5%
