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)

For more information about all things urea, please see our blog post on Simple Skincare Science.

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.

INCI: Water, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Urea, Glycerin, Dimethicone, Sodium Polyacrylate, Cyclopentasiloxane, Trideceth-6, PEG/PPG-18/18 Dimethicone, Phenoxyethanol, Allantoin, Hyaluronic Acid, Ethylhexylglycerin

Great Moisturizer That Packs A Heavy Punch

I've been using this moisturizer for roughly two weeks now and it works fabulously. I am really surprised at how well my skin is taking to Malezia's products. I usually have incredibly reactive skin that hates everything, but this seems to work. I use this product AM and PM after cleansing.

I was worried about the urea in the product and whether that would be too much for my skin (especially because I use retinoids), but my skin does not seem to have any reaction to it. It helps keep my skin soft and it spreads well.

My only complaint is just the price point, but the product seems to last awhile and you don't need to use a lot to cover your entire face. I find that if you layer this product after hydrating serums, toners, etc. it works even better. I use the Hada Labo Gokujyun Premium Lotion (which is also FA safe).

Yes to wonderful Urea…

I would like to start by saying that I suffer from seborrheic dermatitis (Seb Derm). After a stressful year in 2023, I experienced a bad flare-up in 2024, resulting in itchy, red, inflamed, yet dry skin. As a new patient, I had to wait to see a dermatologist, which was frustrating. In the meantime, I turned to YouTube and online resources and thankfully found this company that offered helpful products.

I realized I would need to revamp my entire skincare routine “again” especially since I was trying to address hyperpigmentation. Buy purchasing some good fatty acid moisturizers. Initially played it safe by using a basic moisturizer recommended by most dermatologists while dealing with the itching and inflammation. I was hesitant to introduce anything new to my skin. It's great because I now realize that those fatty moisturizers would have fed the yeast on my skin.

During my research and after receiving my official diagnosis of seborrheic dermatitis, I ordered nearly every product from Malezia, except for the cleansing balm. The information I found on their website helped me understand the importance of ingredients like urea. Fortunately, I was able to return untested moisturizers that would have aggravated my skin condition.

To this day, I only use Malezia moisturizer. One tube has lasted me several months, so the cost is justified; a little goes a long way, and it spreads easily. Unfortunately, I felt insecure about my skin and did not take photos to compare my condition now. For the record, I have a light complexion and skin of color, which means I am prone to red inflamed bumps followed by brown spots from hyperpigmentation.

I like to give back by sharing my experience and recommending Malezia in comment sections. Thank you for your excellent products!

THANK YOU

I have been struggling with my skin so bad recently, it’s really left me feeling quite defeated. I have never had acne problems like this before so when my face started to flare I was panicking! I found out it was fungal acne related and everything I did it would just react worse and worse. At one point my face ballooned up and it was so swollen and painful I couldn’t even eat. I have been so self conscious about my skin I’ve hardly left my house. I started malezia products on a hope and prayer that something would help and I’m so glad I did. It has truly been day and night. I’ve been using it for about 2 weeks now and the difference is shocking, I’m not 100% where I want to be but I’m definitely feeling more comfortable in my skin.

Truly a great product

I’m so grateful I found the website with the fungal acne guide and it led me to Malezia. I had a bad breakout I believed was fungal acne and started following the program. Although I think it may have been regular acne or follicular is or dermatitis, the regimen has worked wonders and totally healed my broken out sensitive skin. The hero product is definitely the urea moisturizer which I know I can rely on no matter what - will never upset my skin and will always give it a perfect dose of hydration. Using lots of benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid obviously dries out the skin but the moisturizer soothes it immediately and makes my skin so smooth. This will always be a regular part of my skincare from now on - I do wish shipping/ordering were faster and easier. It took quite a while for the moisturizer to arrive - I realize it’s a small newer company that is trying to keep up with demand for an excellent product. I would also love it if it came in a much larger size! I wish I could buy a giant tube of this so I never have to worry about running out!

Best thing ever

Doing the routine and it works! My skin is insanely sensitive so I had to start with putting on BP for one minute and then washing off then waiting 4 days before applying again. Slowly built up to leaving on every other day and I'm acne free!

My holly grail since its launch

I have been using this moisturizer since its launch back in 2020 and it was love at first use. This with the peroxide gel transformed my face in 2 weeks. I don't just love the products (which ARE so amazing, with clean ingredients and effective) but the people that are working and handling manufacturing/delivery and client support. Even when I encountered at times issues, like my skin getting a bit irritated because of the peroxide gel they answered immediately to advise me (use a bit at the start and then increase the amount until my skin tolerates it better). I also had issues with the post office which were effectively corrected. I honestly haven't met such a lovely team and true to their customers.
I also recommended this product to my friends who were also very pleased with what they got.
Wish I had some photos from 4 years ago to share the progress... :( I really really recomend trying their treatment gel and moisturises

Love

So I just recently realized I have been using all the wrong products for my face and this regimen is incredible. I just developed acne this past year after getting pregnant and it didn't go away after giving birth like I thought it would. I've never experienced anything close to acne in my life so I had no idea what to look for or how to treat it. Looking up skin care products can be overwhelming but once someone told me about this company I went ahead and bought the core bundle. It has been smooth sailing since I started it. No new pimples or dry skin. It's been a few weeks but I really love it. It's just so nice to have finally settled on something that fully works.

The best out there!

I’ve finally found the perfect moisturiser for my skin and haven’t looked back! The texture is velvety, lightweight yet super moisturising. It really has done wonders to my skin. Even though shipping is expensive to ship to the UK I still purchase this as I’d be lost without it.

Incredible moisture/ soft and happy skin!

This moisturizer is the absolute best. I have struggled with a disrupted skin barrier/redness/eczema/ fungal acne issues for years and ever since I started using this my skin is so smooth and the redness has completely gone away. I’ve never had “soft” skin before, but now my skin literally glows and my pores also look so much smaller. This moisturizer is a game changer. Please never ever stop making this magic product!

Unexpected love

I have rosacea/sensitive/combo skin. I was looked for a light weight moisturizer for all over that would work for my oily/breakout-prone areas as well as dry/sensitive areas on my face. This moisturizer is perfect for both! I put a heavier cream on my sensitive areas on top of this when needed, but this is amazing and non-irritating.
