Urea

Urea helps improve the appearance of patches of dry, rough, scaly skin in two ways: by providing hydration to smooth your skin's texture, and by helping to reduce the buildup of dead skin cells.

Urea’s humectant properties make it an ideal ingredient for anyone with dry skin.

Because of its hydrating properties and ability to help remove the build-up of excess dead skin cells, urea can be found in a variety of skincare products, including body washes, lotions and creams.

Urea can be used on the body and is particularly helpful in softening and moisturizing thick, rough or callused skin found on the feet, knees and elbows.
