Last autumn, I received a press release from CCS with skin care products that contain urea - an ingredient that is very moisture-binding. There is a difference between ingredients that only protect the moisture in the skin and ingredients that actually bind and retain moisture in the skin.<\/p>\n

I've been good at lubricating my feet after every shower since I got this press release, so I'm more than ready to review these now! And above all, my feet are ready for a spontaneous sun holiday;) I have probably never had such nice feet in February!<\/p>\n

What I have tested is the ointment CSS Foot Care Ointment<\/a> and mousse CSS Footer<\/a>. I want to add that I usually do not have super big problems with dry feet either, they usually get a little extra dry at the end of winter but I can not judge if they are wow products for you with super dry feet and cracks etc. But I notice a difference !<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Feet are not the most fun part of the body to take pictures so I spare you from pictures of them;) But they are really nice now actually!<\/p>\n

Use<\/strong>
\nAccording to the packaging, you should use the mousse 1-2 times a day and the foot ointment before going to bed. I myself always use immediately after the shower, which is several times a week, but not always every day. Then the feet are clean and soft!<\/p>\n

The products are therefore not meant to be used together but I actually recommend it! I do so that I apply the mousse on the whole feet first, then I take the ointment only on the areas that I need extra moisture which for me are the heels, my big toes and then I lubricate the cuticles as well + up a little on the ankles because there I always dry in the winter.<\/p>\n

The mousse sinks in quickly and does not get sticky at all, while the ointment, on the other hand, is quite greasy and sticky if you take a lot. So I get the effect of the ointment where it is needed but do not walk around with completely dirty feet. So good!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Foot ointment<\/strong>
\nIn the picture above you can see what the ointment looks like, a white cream that is very thick and quite hard in consistency when you push it out of the tube. The ointment contains 10% urea and 28% fat.<\/p>\n

It has a scent of eucalyptus but is also a bit reminiscent of Helosan ointment in the smell. Helosan smells a bit of a cow, I think haha, because my grandmother always lubricated her cows' teats with Helosan when I was little, which was often helped, so I do not feel directly "fresh" from that smell so I'm glad it is a little eucalyptus in the ointment as well. I do not want to smell "team yard" after the shower :)<\/p>\n

As I said, it gets quite greasy and sticky if you have it on your whole feet, so I use it thin on selected areas only. A little goes a long way!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Mousse<\/strong>
\nThe foot mousse is very lovely! It also contains 10% urea but is not as oily and sinks into the skin quickly. It is also odorless, which I like. Simple and nice simply!<\/p>\n

Summary:<\/strong> These are not the most luxurious products on the bathroom shelf, but when it comes to the feet, you want to see fast results (and not a really fun body part to spend expensive money on?) And then these are definitely a recommendation from me! The mousse without the ointment will not be as effective and the ointment without the mousse makes the procedure more messy and cumbersome - and if it becomes too difficult, it will not end at all. So these work best together I would say! I am really pleased!<\/p>\n

And spring is soon here, then it's wonderful with well-groomed feet in the spring shoes! :)<\/p>\n
