Review on Intensive Callus Remover Cream - Urea 40% & Salicylic Acid 2-Pack For Dry Cracked Feet, Hands, Heels, & More - Moisturizes & Exfoliates For Soft, Smooth Skin by Anthony Robichaud

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Product literacy is fundamental

I feel like alot of users don't understand what urea is and how it works which would likely fix alot of the negative reviews since it seems like they're looking for a body butter to provide an artificial barrier that can help prevent water loss. That's NOT WHAT THIS IS. Urea is used to repair the skins barrier and adds moisture through that process. Urea is a crystalline product suspended in a lotion. That's why it's got that slight gritty texture when dry! Knowing all of that BEFORE my purchase I have been hyped to finally get my feet in order. I also paired this with a set of toe gel socks so the evaporation wouldn't make me too uncomfortable and put these on after a good foot soak since urea is a humectant it made sense to. I've been using it off and on for a while now and my typically hard feet have been softening considerably. My only real complaint is that there's no sun warning since salicylic acid can make skin more sun sensitive so spf up my fellow flip flop fans. I'm not an expert I'm just a skin care nerd and I don't know of urea cancels that out but better safe than sorry!
