NOTE: our Urea Moisturizer and Acne Treatment Gel have been backordered since February. As of 3/13, this is causing a one week shipping delay on new orders. For quicker delivery of available items like our Cleansing Balm, Hyaluronic Acid Cleanser, and MCT Oil, consider ordering them separately from the backordered products. This ensures immediate shipment of in-stock items.

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

Stop considering it…just do it

My only complaint is that it doesn’t come in a five gallon bucket for me to submerge my entire body in. I have never found a moisturizer that makes my skin feel truly hydrated. Currently waiting on two tubes and a key! Buy it buy it buy it.

Full review for all current products in one post! Overall great products, great company!

I have fungal acne, oily skin and sometimes dry patches due to seborrheic dermatitis (also caused by Malassezia fungus) and I LOVE these products!!! I will share my experience, tips, and caveats of different products all in this one review so it's easier for new customers to read about one person's experience all in one post.

5% Urea moisturizer: if you have fungal acne, buy this NOW! I'm obsessed, I've used it every day for 3 months! I don't see myself using any other moisturizer again!

Hyaluronic Acid Cleanser: again, buy this NOW! It gave me about 2 days of purging before nearly completely clearing my fungal acne and seborrheic dermatitis on my face! I use this cleanser and then the 5% urea moisturizer on damp skin daily and I feel so clean and hydrated!

Acne treatment gel: love this Benzoyl Peroxide treatment! I don't use it every day, but maybe 1x-2x a week and I haven't experienced any fabric bleaching! I think it's also helping to fade reddish/dark spots from my older healed acne as well!

MCT oil: this is a very thin liquid oil, it works very well for removing makeup! Definitely needs a double or even triple cleanse with the HA cleanser to remove the oil. I don't love the super oily feeling, so I only use it for a full face of makeup.

'Pilot' Cleansing balm: This is a more viscous and thick oil/gel, but also works very well for removing makeup! Again, I don't use it too often other than with a full face of makeup. I know it says it's a stand-alone product that doesn't need a double cleanse, but I personally like to double cleanse with the HA cleanser because I don't love the oily feeling. (also, as it says in the 'pilot' warning, the container did explode from a small hole at the top, but it still had quite a lot of the product left!)

As a general note, my order didn't have enough protective packaging/dunnage, so my products arrived a bit dented and the MCT oil lid came ajar in transit, so I was a bit disappointed with that, but the Malezia support team immediately took my issue very seriously! They issued a partial refund for any unexpected loss of product, they designated the damaged items as fragile, they are working with the manufacturer to ensure the containers themselves are stronger, and have assured that the warehouse will properly package the items to ensure they are properly protected. I am VERY pleased with how they handled my issue!

Overall, I'm very pleased with the products, the company, the support team and I am hopeful for new products in the future, especially a sunscreen!!

Genius

I’ve been following FC for years, and I finally got tired of using moisturizers not made for Malassezia-prone skin. I needed something hydrating, and aloe vera just doesn’t cut it. This is probably my third or fourth order, and I order 3-4 tubes simultaneously. I do love the new packaging. I'm not sure if there was a change, but I feel like this last order dispensed much easier.

I haven't experienced breakouts or any bad reaction

I would love to see a much larger size launch!

Was hopeful

I was hopeful this would help my acne but it broke me out.
Now mind you I don't have fungal acne.
I was just wanting to see if it would help

Horrible!!!! Broke me out so badly after just one use. What a waste. Really really disappointed.

Magic moisturizer

This moisturizer is MAGIC! I live in SD, USA and it is dryyyy AF in the winter! I've tried many moisturizers. Most broke me out or caused a fungal reaction. No moisturizer, until this tube of magic!, could keep the dry away AND not break me out NOR cause a reaction. This moisturizer is literally magic.

Wish it came with more product or a bigger size offering since I used it all in a month. Other than that very moisturizing and great!

Product snob approved

I’m a total sucker for the creamy moisturizers in the blue jars with the gold tops. Any expensive French brand actually. But my skin hates them. Fungal acne that even my Derm didn’t know what to give me to fix. I was miserable and went down a full rabbit hole trying to find something that wouldn’t cause me to break out. After finding Malezia I won’t even walk into Sephora or Ulta and I gave away all my French creams. This is by far the best skincare brand out there and it’s affordable for everyone. And bonus points for sustainability and small biz.
