Foot care set skin scrub and urea serum

Use a skin scrub and foot care serum to gently and effectively tackle calluses on your feet. However, you should bring a little patience and restraint with you, as prolonged, vigorous rubbing of dry skin also stimulates callus formation. The more and the more intensively you try to remove the callus, the more the body produces it again. To avoid this cycle, use the skin scrub often but gently on damp skin, preferably after every shower or bath. Rub with little pressure to loosen the upper, mostly horny skin cells and open the pores. After drying off, apply a thin layer of the foot care serum. It moisturizes the skin and helps to maintain the skin's protective acid mantle and thus also the moisture and oil content in its natural balance. The foot care serum contains a high proportion of urea, which increases the skin's ability to absorb water. Salicylic acid and lactic acid have a callus-dissolving effect, glycerine binds the moisture, almond oil cares for and nourishes the skin and juniper oil gives the skin a subtle, pleasantly spicy fragrance.

The Sagitta clay skin scrub is turned by hand on the potter's wheel and fired at 1,240 °C. The rubbing surface is only slightly textured, allowing gentle rubbing with minimal skin abrasion, so that the skin scrub can - and should - be used after every bath and shower. The skin is then perfectly prepared for the urea serum.

Urea foot care is a light but rich serum that is absorbed very quickly: Basically, you can put on your socks straight after application - this removes the biggest obstacle to regular foot care: no waiting, no stains, no creamed hands, as the serum is simply applied using a pad. To keep feet supple, it is sufficient to apply a thin layer of urea serum every two days. If calluses have already formed, the serum should be applied in the morning and evening, or in between if the skin is cracked. Moisten the nail bed of the toes with the urea serum too, as the nails can grow more evenly in a soft environment. And be patient, the more callus there is and the more cracked it is, the longer it will take. You should therefore last at least one to two months. If you apply the serum twice a day, it will last for about a month. It is also available to buy separately in our range.

When the Fasching family took over Munich's oldest pharmacy in 1909, they established a new pharmacy tradition. It developed its own line of over-the-counter medicines, which quickly became known and popular under the name Sagitta. After selling the brand to a pharmaceutical company, the family of pharmacists reacquired the rights years later and now once again manufactures body care products according to the proven formulas. However, in combination with new techniques and ingredients, the focus is now entirely on maintaining an intact human microbiome. (The human microbiome is the totality of all microorganisms that live in our bodies). To this end, the family of pharmacists is combining insights from both microbiology and conventional medicine, as well as plant-based medicine, into a concept based on prevention rather than cure. Essential to the uncomplicated but efficient products are natural ingredients and the use of probiotics, i.e. strains of bacteria naturally occurring in the human organism. As useful helpers, these "good" bacteria support our digestion, they strengthen the immune system and are part of the protective shield of our skin. In addition, Sagitta also uses prebiotics: natural sugars on which probiotics feed and which provide them with an adequate environment. This creates prebiotic and probiotic body care products that help maintain the natural microbiome and thus can strengthen the natural skin barrier.
