Why Urea Cream Must be Part of Any Diabetes Care Kit
5 Things Every Diabetic Needs to Know About Cracked Heels (Before It’s Too Late)
You might think it’s just dry skin. But for people with diabetes, cracked heels can turn into something far worse — infections, ulcers, even surgery.
Here’s what most people don’t know… and what saved my feet.
Thing #1: Cracked heels aren’t just dry skin — they’re a doorway for infection
For diabetics, dry skin doesn’t just flake. It splits. Bleeds. Gets infected.
These cracks can silently develop into diabetic ulcers, especially if you have neuropathy.
“I had no idea a cracked heel could become life-threatening. Buffology helped me stop it before it got worse.”— Karen S., 58, Type 2 Diabetic
Thing #2: Most foot creams don’t penetrate — they just coat.
Cheap lotions and drugstore balms leave a film — but do nothing for deep cracks.
What you need is urea. It’s the gold-standard ingredient proven to break down thick skin and hydrate deep inside.
Buffology is powered by 42% urea — the same concentration used in clinical settings. It’s safe, sting-free, and doesn’t leave you slippery or greasy.
Thing #3: Neuropathy hides the damage until it’s too late.
By the time you feel a cracked heel, it may already be infected.
That’s why proactive care is key — daily use of a urea-based cream can prevent issues before they spiral.
“I’m on my feet 12 hours a day. I didn’t even notice how bad it got until my heel bled through my sock. Buffology reversed it in a few days.”— Dawn, 51, Nurse
Thing #4: Urea is clinically proven. Your feet don’t need gimmicks — they need results.
Forget foot peels, socks, or mystery oils.
Urea is dermatologist-backed for diabetic skin because it exfoliates and moisturizes without damage or sting.
Buffology is built specifically for cracked diabetic heels.No perfume. No fluff. Just what your skin actually needs.
Real People. Real Results.
Frequently Asked Questions
What causes cracked heels in people with diabetes?
What causes cracked heels in people with diabetes?
Cracked heels often start with dry, callused skin — but in diabetics, reduced circulation and nerve damage make it worse. You may not feel small injuries, which can lead to deeper cracks, infections, or even ulcers if untreated. Walking barefoot or standing for long hours increases the risk.
How is Buffology different from regular foot creams?
How is Buffology different from regular foot creams?
Most creams just coat the skin. Buffology is powered by 40% urea, a dermatologist-recommended ingredient for diabetic skin. It exfoliates thick calluses while deeply hydrating at the same time — without sting, grease, or irritation. It’s real repair, not just moisture.

Yes. Buffology is specially formulated to be safe for damaged, sensitive diabetic skin. It’s free from alcohol, acids, and fragrances. Instead, we use urea, allantoin, and shea butter to gently soothe and heal. If your heels are severely cracked, apply a thick layer and cover with socks overnight.
