The Science of Skin Care – Smart Ingredient Selection in Callusan Products
Share
At Callusan, each mousse formula is crafted with skin-health in mind, combining scientifically supported ingredients with dermatologist-level precision. Here’s a breakdown of the core active ingredients that make our creams effective, lightweight, and trusted by professionals.
Urea
An essential natural moisturiser, urea strengthens the skin’s hydration foundation by drawing water deep into the epidermis. In Callusan products, it ranges from **5% to over 15%**, providing intensive relief for dry skin and promoting a smooth barrier effect. For instance, Callusan Extra uses **10% urea**, while Callusan Forte delivers **more than 15% urea** along with shea butter for deep crack and callus care :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}.
Shea Butter & Avocado Oil
These natural lipids restore elasticity and reinforce the protective barrier of the skin. In the high-strength Callusan Forte, they work alongside urea to deeply nourish hard, cracked areas :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}.
Panthenol & Allantoin
Known for their soothing and regenerative properties, panthenol and allantoin support skin repair and calm irritation—especially beneficial in Callusan Fresh and sensitive formulations to boost hydration and comfort :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}.
Natural Extracts (Menthol, Grape Leaf, Horse Chestnut)
Forms such as Callusan Vinum infuse refreshing extracts including red vine leaf, horse chestnut, and menthol for cooling relief and improved circulation in tired legs :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}.
Odor-Controlling Agents (Icelandic Moss & Black Currant)
