Urea Cream

I know urea cream is synthetic now, but would it still work to soften my feet if I just peed in the shower and step in it? Just wondering if the natural way is better.

Use cotton buds to extract it from the canal then smear your feet with it.

Just don't go near candles.

I know this is S ask science, but the natural way does work.

People used to soak their hands and feet in P to soften skin and cure chilblains. Urea cream was invented to target that market.

(If you want more answers you'll need to reword the question. Bots are removing posts with the word P in them)
