What does the 10% urea in this foot cream actually do for my feet? — Foot cream ultra -frozen, 100 ml - Jee Cosmetics

Urea is a humectant, meaning it draws water into the outer layer of the skin (the stratum corneum). In this cream, it is present at 10% — a concentration often used when you need more than a basic moisturiser, but not an intensive exfoliating treatment. At this level, urea works in two ways: it pulls moisture into the skin, and it loosens the bonds between dry surface cells. That loosening is what makes hard, rough areas feel softer over time, while the improved moisture retention helps the effect last longer than with a plain moisturiser.

This makes the cream a good fit for heels and soles that feel coarse, tight, or lose flexibility easily. It is not a heavy exfoliating treatment, so if you have very thick calluses you may still need to combine it with physical care like a pumice stone as part of your routine.
