Is that actually true?I've heard various conflicting claims about this, and I'm tempted to side with the line of reasoning that
(a) Urea is secreted from your sweat glands anyway and
(b) the fact that you excrete it surely suggests you don't want it in or near your body?

It rehydrates skin (hence the sweat glands)and mostly used for cracked skin (heels, toes etc) www.boots.com/en/Eucerin-Dry-Skin-Intensive-Foot-Cream-10-Urea-100ml_11718/

Yeah, but I thoughtthe point of sweat glands was to produce moisture for evaporation and cooling, as opposed to cosmetic purposes. (Sorry for being so sceptical, but seeing as Boots now have a homeopathic aisle, I'm inclined to question these claims with a certain amount of cynicism.)
