How does Flexitol Cracked Heel Balm work on dry, cracked heels?

The balm uses 25% urea to attract and retain moisture in the outer layer of the skin, while emollients such as lanolin, paraffin and shea butter help soften and smooth the skin surface. Clinical evidence shows that higher-strength urea formulations can significantly improve skin hydration and reduce visible dryness and cracking compared with lower-strength moisturisers.

What skin concerns can Flexitol Cracked Heel Balm help with?
