Discover smoother, softer skin with CETAPHIL Exfoliating Rough & Bumpy Cream, specially formulated to gently exfoliate and intensely hydrate dry, textured, and uneven skin. Whether you struggle with keratosis pilaris, dry patches, or bumpy skin on your arms, legs, or body, this clinically tested, dermatologist-recommended formula provides visible results — even after just one use.

This rich, non-greasy cream contains 20% Urea, a powerful yet gentle exfoliant that dissolves excess keratin buildup — the root cause of rough, bumpy skin. It works by clearing away dead surface cells to refine skin texture, reduce the appearance of bumps and diminish redness or discoloration, revealing skin that looks and feels smoother and more even-toned.

Infused with Glycerin and deeply hydrating agents, the formula boosts moisture levels for up to 48 hours of long-lasting hydration, while reinforcing the skin’s natural barrier to prevent future dryness and irritation.

Perfect for daily use, the formula is hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and clinically tested on sensitive skin — making it safe and effective for even the most reactive skin types.


Key Benefits:

  • Gently Exfoliates & Smooths: 20% Urea dissolves built-up keratin and dead skin cells to reduce bumps and rough texture

  • 💧 Boosts 48-Hour Moisture: Glycerin and Urea provide intense hydration and barrier support

  • 🌿 Clinically Proven Results: Skin feels noticeably smoother after 1 use; visibly bump-free in just 1 month*

  • 🧴 Safe for Sensitive Skin: Hypoallergenic, fragrance-free, non-comedogenic, and clinically tested

  • 🛡️ Defends Against 5 Signs of Sensitivity: Effectively combats dryness, irritation, roughness, tightness, and a weakened skin barrier


Ideal for daily use as part of your skincare routine, CETAPHIL Exfoliating Rough & Bumpy Cream delivers the exfoliation you need with the hydration your skin deserves — all without irritation.

    I use this for KP on my shoulders and to keep my feet soft. It’s also great for dry patches (elbows, knees, etc). It’s doesn’t sting or smell.

    I’ve tried numerous exfoliating lotions to clear up discolored abrasions & rough patches on arms & legs – but my skin is sensitive & easily irritated. I could never apply an exfoliant cream more than a few times without causing redness & irritation. This Cetaphil cream is the best I’ve tried. It’s gentle yet effective at smoothing rough, dry skin. I think the difference is that it contains urea, which dissolves dead skin cells. I’ve applied this cream once daily (x4) and have had no sensitive reaction, yet my skin is definitely smoother and more even-toned. This is what I wanted. I will definitely purchase again!

    This cream leaves a white film on my skin after application. The smell does not bother me, but I am not a fan of the film it leaves behind. It is still too soon to tell if it really works for me, but my dermatologist recommended it for keratosis pilaris on my arms.

    I will keep using it for now and see if there is improvement. Overall, it seems gentle and easy to apply.

    Great product. It’s loaded with urea which is great for KP, rough elbows, etc, but gentle enough to use everywhere. And like other urea lotions I’ve tried this one doesn’t smell like pee. 😁 As you would expect from a cetaphil product it absorbs very well and lasts a long time on the skin without being greasy. I live in the desert so I can’t speak to how this lotion behaves in humidity as, well, we don’t have any. 😉

    I’ve been dealing with KP for forever and I’ve tried so many different (and expensive) products and nothing has ever helped. I saw a video recommending Cetaphil 20% urea for KP and I had never even heard of urea before. The bottle is not expensive and I figured it’s worth a try. I’m glad I did and wish I had learned about this product earlier. Within 2 days I could already see a difference and after a few weeks I feel like my legs are the smoothest they have ever been with KP. For once I’m not completely dreading wearing shorts this upcoming summer. The texture can feel a tad chalky but it’s worth it for how much it helps with KP.

    This cream really works on rough, bumpy skin. It’s easy to use, absorbs well, and has no strong smell. The 20% urea gently exfoliates while keeping skin soft. Great for daily use—no setup, just apply and go. Highly recommended for keratosis pilaris!

    I appreciate Cetaphil for coming out with their Rough and Bumpy Cream because it has 20% Urea which sloughs off bumpy skin so fast, removes self tanner…if you want a new safe method to doing so, chemically exfoliates your skin in a gentle manner, while being soothing! I suggest not applying this on your face but on your legs it brightens them right up from dull to bright right away! Arms too especially if you have eczema or just bumps in general such as chicken skin! Ask your Dr as always!!! But if you know your skin, this is such a beautiful cream and at such a value! $11 OMG! So affordable! I will rebuy THIS again as it works but in a comfortable manner! I slather it on my arms and legs! That’s where I need it and it’s effective! Urea is such an underrated ingredient which has skin soothing properties as well! I never thought I’d see this from Cetephil! Nice!

    This product did not work well the first time we used it for our Keratosis Pilaris. However, when you get out to the shower if you immediately put The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner on the back of your arms and then immediately follow it up with this cream it makes an incredible difference. The combo of these two products had been the first thing that is working to resolve the KP. Highly recommend when the two products are used in conjunction of each other.

    I’ve been using this for rough and bumpy skin and I actually really like it so far. It’s lightweight, absorbs well, and doesn’t feel greasy or heavy. I’ve definitely noticed my skin feels smoother and more comfortable, even though I know it’s still a work in progress.

    The bumps aren’t magically gone overnight, but there’s a clear improvement in texture, and my skin just feels healthier overall. No irritation, no burning, which I really appreciate.

    Also, urea is AMAZING. If you know, you know. It makes such a difference for rough skin.

    I’ll keep using it because it’s helping, even if results take time. A solid product if you’re dealing with texture and want something gentle but effective.

    I saw this lotion on a dermatologist’s page on Facebook and figured I’d give it a try bc I didn’t like how dry my heels would get almost immediately after a pedicure. This stuff is amazing. I’ve started using it on my arms, knees, and elbows. It’s not greasy at all and doesn’t have a smell. I’ve bought several tubes already and will continue doing so

    I have a foot callous that comes out on the right side of my foot. I put this on after a shower, and let me tell you, the urea just clears it. Occasionally I put it on when I know I’ll wear shoes that require socks and be out and about (don’t put it on your toenails we don’t want that extra moisture to lock in). I haven’t had the callous since! A couple days in and it was gone. I had seen a dermatologist on Facebook recommend it for callouses, and I thought what the hey! I’m glad I tried it.

    I have recently been introduced to UREA. I can hardly find a product on Amazon with Urea in it that is a full-body moisturizer. Usually, it’s formulated just for a foot and elbow product. I was so happy to find this Cetaphil Cream with 20% Urea. That is a good amount of Urea for a body moisturizer. I use it mostly for my shins, ankles, pretty much all bottom leg parts. My body is soft everywhere except that area, and within a couple of weeks, my skin on my lower legs was just as soft. I did not have any residue, piling, or white powder left behind. I made sure to use enough, but not to excess. I decided to start using this cream on the rest of my body, and now I am running out. I came here to replenish and purchase another tube, but it shows as Unavailable! What! Now I cannot find it anywhere. This was a fairly new product. What is happening? This cannot be discontinued already. Please. This is a holy grail for me.

    I developed a strange rash on both arms, painless, not itchy, and totally random. I was close to making a dermatologist appointment when I decided to try this cream first. I’m so glad I did. After using it twice a day for a couple of weeks, the rash on my forearms disappeared completely. Truly impressed with how well it worked.
