The famous "urea moisturizer" created by f.c. himself! This product underwent several dozen formulations before its current iteration.
Its star ingredient is urea, a molecule found in the skin's natural moisturizing factor (NMF) that plays an integral role in improving skin barrier function.
Urea is a multi-functional ingredient with the ability to hydrate and mildly exfoliate. It's so effective as a hydrator, in fact, that it outperforms vaseline in some studies. (1)

Other key features!
- Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride: enhances skin's softness and hydration while providing a silky, non-greasy feel. Our Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride is meticulously sourced and contains no trace amount of C12-24 fatty acids, enhancing its microbial potency against Malassezia, a microorganism linked to acne and "fungal acne." (2)
- Hyaluronic acid: a moisture-binding powerhouse that can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, delivering unparalleled hydration. By forming a protective barrier, it maintains optimal moisture levels and supports natural wound healing. This makes it a multi-benefit ingredient that enhances skin plumpness, radiance, and overall health, and is suitable for all skin types.
- Glycerin: a natural humectant, known for its ability to attract and lock in moisture, keeping skin soft and supple. It works synergistically with urea to create a "skin-smoothing" effect and boost hydration. (3)
- Allantoin: has soothing properties, stabilizes urea, and promotes skin softness and healing. Recognized for its ability to form a protective barrier, aid in retaining moisture, and help alleviate minor irritations. Gentle and nurturing for the skin.
- Dimethicone: creates a breathable protective barrier on the skin, locking in moisture and enhancing moisturization without a greasy feel. Our dimethicone was carefully crafted to offer smooth texture and stability for a luxurious and comfortable experience.

Customer Reviews
I have had this infection for years (dermatitis), the cream makes the skin very supple, it is almost essential for me if I do not want to have rough skin
The malezia line is literally the only thing that works for me. I had cystic acne for years was finally able to clear that then during covid developed perioral dermatitis/fungal acne/rosacea/nobody actually knows what was going on with my skin. I have tried literally hundreds of dollars worth of products and then started using nothing which helped but I couldn’t get rid of nose and chin rashes/breakouts. The urea cream stopped it. It’s moisturizing but doesn’t flare my rashes and the combo of the benzoyl peroxide stopped my little whiteheads and redness/rashes completely. Malezia is the only thing out put on my face anymore. Trust me less is more. I am so thankful for the research put into this line and the authenticity! I am a loyal user for the long run
I started using this moisturizer and noticed my skin looking more smooth and hydrated within the week. I didn’t need more convincing honestly. The packaging is nice too, I appreciate not having to stick my fingers in it. For context I use tretonoin, and in my 30’s and have a history of eczema/sensitive skin. I actually healed my skin barrier using advice from the creator of this brand. The search is over. Also price point is about neutrogena hydro boost/Hado labo but cheaper than less effective but more expensive moisturizers out there. Don’t get me started on the other products cause the cleansing balm is also a forever fave. My nose has never looked this clear.
I have using This moisturizer for tel years now and I love it. I also use the cleansers and sometimes the Benzoyl peroxide gel. The results I have gotten from using f.c. ‘s blog for knowledge and his products are so good. I even have it shipped al the way to Europe. Thank you and please don’t ever stop making the products!
The only thing that consistently keeps my skin clear and improves it
I can’t express how life changing its been for me to learn that the acne I’ve struggled with for over a decade is actually FA. And for the first time in a very long time, the actions I’m taking for my skin are actually working. This moisturizer is my absolute favorite. It helped clear up my FA so quickly (along with the cleanser). No longer do I hopelessly say “I just have very sensitive skin and nothing works for me”, and this is the first time in a very long time that I’m starting to feel in control of my skin. Thank you Malezia! <3
I love the urea moisturizer. It's not greasy and feels very clean on my skin. I am using a lot of it right now. My seborrheic dermatitis has greatly improved. Mine was deep in the skin, so it has been a battle. Malezia's core regimen is the first routine that has worked consistently. I didn't want to run out again, so I bought several tubes.
I’ve purchased this moisturizer 3x already ( and now have a subscription ). It’s been a holy grail product in my skincare routine. It super lightweight and keeps my skin moisturized and hydrated. Does not clog my pores at all!!! I have eczema/acne/ problematic skin, and this does not irritate me at all.
I’m thankful to have found this company for daily skincare. The moisturizer protects the skin barrier with hydration that doesn’t irritate dermatitis. It’s gentle, effective, and has given good results.
It definitely left my skin way more hydrated but without clogging my pores!
