Every so often a product comes into my posession and having read an introduction to it, I go 'Wow' and this is what happened with Yu-Be Moisturising skin cream. It was invented back in 1957 by a pharmacist and has since then been one of Japan's top-selling skin creams, yes for over 50 years! This is where I said wow!
Yu-Be is a moisture rich, petroleum free formula which contains the highly nourishing Vitamin E and B2 alongside Glycerin which helps to preserve moisture and Camphor which helps to soothe irritation as well as a menthol-like fragrance, which I find quite soothing.
Yu-Be can be used from head-to-toe and it helps with all forms of stubborn dryness such as flaky red skin, chapped lips, dry knees, elbows, on the cuticles and even on the dry skin of your feet, infact, I have smothered my feet in this cream, put some socks on and left them for a few hours to soak in the cream, which resulted in incredibly soft and smooth skin in place of FitFlop causing dry skin around my heels.
The formula is a thick, yellow cream which means you only need to apply a thin layer at any one time and there is a menthol fragrance to this cream which does fade quite quickly, but when applying the cream to my skin, I found the fragrance quite soothing. I love that it can be used on all kinds of skin and how gentle the formula is and knowing it has been used by Sumiyo Tsuzuki, a world class climber and explorer, to protect her skin as she climbed to the tallest peak of Mount Everest, really speaks volumes as to how good this cream is.
The Yu-Be skin care range includes a lip balm, body lotion, moisturising socks, a travel kit and of course this amazing cream and prices start from £7 and it can be found in stores such as BeautyMart, SpaceNK and on Amazon.
