Excipial Lipocream vs. U10 Lipolotio: Dry Skin Care

These two medical-grade moisturizers solve severe skin dryness using totally different tactics. Excipial Lipocream is an inert, heavy-duty barrier cream; it uses a massive 55% lipid concentration to form a thick, protective grease layer over sensitive or pediatric skin. Excipial U10 Lipolotio is a highly active chemical treatment; it uses 10% Urea to aggressively dissolve rough, dead, scaly skin cells while pulling moisture deep into the tissue.

Lipocream is an artificial wall. With a massive 55% lipid content, it doesn't try to change the skin chemistry; it simply traps your body's natural water inside and completely blocks external irritants. **U10 Lipolotio is a chemical excavator.** It lowers the lipid content to 36% but adds a massive dose of 10% Urea. Urea at this concentration is keratolytic—it actively eats away at the hardened keratin protein that causes rough, scaly bumps, physically smoothing the skin's surface.

If your skin is incredibly sensitive, raw, or you are looking to protect a child's delicate skin from harsh winter winds, the absolute purity and heavy greasing of the Lipocream is perfect. However, if you are an adult with 'strawberry legs', severely callused elbows, or rough, scaly skin that needs to be chemically smoothed out, the 10% Urea in the U10 Lipolotio is mandatory.
