Foot foam for very dry and rough skin
The soles of our feet work hard, with the skin purposely developed to be thicker and harder than elsewhere on our body to withstand daily life. It helps protect us, but can also be prone to dryness as a result. Impractical footwear, pressure, friction and stresses to the skin can cause feet, especially the heel pads, to become very rough and dry over time.
Eucerin UreaRepair PLUS 10% Urea Foot Foam treats rough and dry skin on feet with intense moisturisation to provide immediate relief. This foot care product combines key ingredients to powerfully treat dry skin with a targeted solution. Urea remains the gold standard in treating dry skin. Classic ingredients such as NMF supply the skin with extensive moisture while Ceramides strengthen the skin barrier and prevent moisture loss. These work alongside Dexpanthenol and Decandiol, two active ingredients that feature prominently in foot care due to their ability to quickly regenerate skin and reduce the microorganisms responsible for fungal infections. As a proven result, the new foot foam increases the resilience of fungus sensitive feet.
The formula has been clinically and dermatologically proven to deliver immediate relief and intense, long-lasting moisturisation, delaying dryness and roughness for up to 48 hours. Skin feels smooth again while thickened skin and callouses are reduced. The ultra-light foam texture is easy applied and quickly absorbed into skin for total convenience and comfort. The foam also has a pleasant scent uniquely developed for dry skin, creating a positive spa-like experience without the irritation that perfumed products can cause.
The foot foam is ideal for those with aged and/or dry skin, and skin conditions such as xerosis, psoriasis and especially diabetes. The perfumed foam’s texture and consistency was rated just right by 95% of diabetic users, confirming the ease of use on dry diabetic skin. Additionally, 94% of diabetic patients confirm the overall effectiveness of the foam for their dry skin while 96% of them confirm it visibly smoothens and moisturises the skin. It can also be used for adjunctive care. The studies also showed that 98% of the testers say that the foam is particularly well suited for the skin stressed from compression stockings.

Urea (also known as Carbamide) is produced naturally by the skin and is part of the essential Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF) which regulates skin’s moisture content. Urea is hygroscopic, which means it is able to bind moisture into the outermost layer of skin. It is also keratolytic, meaning helps the skin to get rid of dead skin cells dead skin cells, to make it smooth again, and has anti-itch and anti-microbial properties. As a result, it improves natural exfoliation and soothes and smoothes the skin’s surface. As a substance produced naturally by the skin, Urea is well-tolerated even by dry and sensitive skin. Because all of these effects and very good study data, Urea is the gold standard in treating of dry skin.*

Ceramides are important lipids in the hydrolipid film (which protects the external layers of skin). Produced naturally in healthy skin, they strengthen the skin barrier, helping to prevent moisture loss due to evaporation and keeping out irritants that can cause inflammation and itching. When skin’s Ceramide levels fall the skin barrier is impaired. Skin can start to lose water and become dry and irritated.
Eucerin uses synthetic Ceramides that are biologically-identical and that enhance skin’s natural barrier – locking in moisture and preventing dryness and irritation.
Why do I need a special moisturiser for my feet?
Our feet are particularly prone to dry skin which typically leads to problems such as calloused skin with corns and cracked heels. Wearing uncomfortable shoes can cause feet to develop pressure and friction marks. The skin on our feet is thicker than elsewhere on our bodies, which means it needs a rich and more intensive moisturiser.
How can I tell if I have dry skin, a skin condition or a skin disease?
You can find information about dry skin as well as conditions such as Atopic Dermatitis and Psoriasis on this website. You can also take our skin test to find out more about your skin type and condition and how best to care for it. If you are still unsure, or concerned about your symptoms, we recommend you ask a pharmacist or dermatologist for advice.
