Description
Walker's ULTRA 25% Urea with Ceramides – 100g Travel Tube – Cracked Heel Treatment
The clinical-strength heel repair formula in its most portable form. Walker's ULTRA combines 25% urea — the therapeutic concentration for genuinely cracked, callused heels — with three skin-identical ceramides (NP, AP and EOP) that rebuild the moisture barrier itself rather than just coating the surface. Australian-made and cruelty-free, the 100g tube is the ideal way to trial the formula, keep treatment going while travelling, or stash a backup in the gym bag.
Why podiatrists recommend it
- 25% urea, therapeutic strength — softens thick callus and hydrates deep, dry cracks that everyday moisturisers can't shift
- Triple ceramide barrier repair — NP, AP and EOP ceramides restore the skin's own moisture-retention system, addressing why heels crack rather than only the symptom
- Fragrance-free, non-allergenic — suitable for sensitive skin and cautious use in diabetic foot routines
- Australian made and cruelty-free — the range stocked in podiatry clinics nationwide
How to use
Apply to clean, dry heels 1–2 times daily; once cracks improve, drop to once daily for maintenance. For stubborn thick cracks, gently exfoliate on dry skin (pumice or foot file) before applying — never on broken or bleeding skin. The complete repair routine is in our guide: Cracked Heels: Why They Happen and How to Fix Them. For external use only — always follow the directions for use.
100g or 500ml — and where ULTRA fits in the range
This 100g tube suits first-time users, travel, and single-area treatment; the 500ml size is substantially better value for ongoing daily use or households treating more than one pair of heels. Within the wider urea ladder: ULTRA 25% with ceramides is the premium repair option (urea + barrier rebuild); Urea 25 PLUS is the straightforward 25% workhorse; and the 15% products handle everyday maintenance once repair is done.
Frequently asked questions
What do ceramides actually add over plain urea?
Urea softens and hydrates; ceramides are the lipids that hold your skin barrier together. Cracked heels usually have a depleted barrier, so replacing ceramides helps skin hold its own moisture — meaning results that last beyond the treatment period.
How long does the 100g tube last?
Applied twice daily to both heels, roughly 3–4 weeks — conveniently, about one full repair cycle for moderately cracked heels.
Is it carry-on friendly for flights?
Yes — at 100g/ml it sits right at the typical carry-on liquid limit, so it can travel in your cabin bag.
Can I use it anywhere other than heels?
It's formulated for heels and soles but works on any thick, dry, callused skin — avoid thin, delicate skin, broken skin, and between the toes.
How quickly will cracked heels improve?
Softer skin within days; visible crack repair typically over 2–4 weeks of consistent use. Deep fissures respond fastest with night application plus weekly gentle filing.
