Shampoo with urea – everything you need to know about urea
Urea is the Latin name for the waste product produced by the body’s metabolism that is excreted through urine and sweat. It’s stored in the upper layers of the skin and helps to improve the skin's moisture absorption and retention properties.
Washing your skin and scalp with shampoo, shower gel and soap on a regular basis can remove the skin's natural layer of urea. Urea shampoo helps your body maintain and restore the skin's natural protective barrier.
Urea in shampoo? Not entirely convinced? There’s no need to worry. We realise it may sound a little odd at first, but rest assured: It's completely hygienic. Nowadays we no longer use natural urea. The urea found in our products is instead produced synthetically. Instead of being derived from plant-based or animal sources, we now obtain urea from natural gas, air and water.
Is urea shampoo considered a natural cosmetic?
Due to how it's made, urea shampoo isn’t technically considered a purely natural cosmetic product – but that’s not to say it’s any less effective or compatible. At Yours Truly, we aim to offer hair care that unites natural ingredients and optimal effectiveness without causing any harm to humans, animals or the environment. That's why urea is one of the very few synthetic ingredients used in our vegan, animal-friendly hair care products, which are up to 100 %* natural origin, depending on the formula, and adhere to clean beauty standards.
