Urea è a natural moisturizer found in healthy skin. In various situations of skin dryness, the natural urea content of the skin decreases, with possible further dehydration. The urea in our products provides continuous skin hydration. Skin hydration is fundamental because é it maintains its properties plasto-elastic.

Developments in recent years have resulted in an increase in the use of urea for creams and lotions.

A 10% solution of urea also has bactericidal effects. Preparations with a content between 30% and 90% of urea are used for the non-traumatic removal of nails and to remove materials with an abnormal content of keratin (for example warts).
