What Causes Callus?
Callus is caused by repeated friction, pressure, or irritation on the skin. This triggers the skin to thicken and harden as a protective response. Calluses and hardened skin don't just look rough, they can also cause discomfort when walking or standing for long hours.

What It Does
Stainless Steel Foot File (dual-sided: coarse + fine)
The coarse side removes thick, hardened callus and dead skin. The fine side smooths and polishes to a soft finish. High-grade stainless steel, autoclavable, rust-resistant, and built to last for years. Lightweight ergonomic design for comfortable use.
Urea Foot Balm 150ml / 5.07 fl oz
Applied after filing. The 10% Urea formula deeply moisturises freshly exfoliated skin AND continues gently exfoliating over time, preventing new callus from building up. Contains Lactic Acid (AHA for cell renewal) and Piroctone Olamine (antifungal and antibacterial protection).
Note: This kit does not include the Callus Softener Spray. If you want to add a chemical softener as a pre-filing step, the Callus Softener Spray is available separately or choose the Premium Callus Repair Kit XL which includes all three products.
Why Urea Foot Balm + Stainless Steel Foot File Work Better Together
Imperial Feet's Stainless Steel Foot File is designed for optimal performance and long-lasting use. Its dual-sided surface offers both coarse and fine options for gentle exfoliation and smoothing. Lightweight yet sturdy, the ergonomic design ensures a comfortable grip and precise control. It's perfect for pairing with Imperial Feet Callus Softener or Foot Soak to achieve salon-quality callus removal at home.
Urea is a powerful, dermatologically approved ingredient known for its ability to deeply moisturize and exfoliate the skin. It helps break down dry, rough, and thickened areas, making it ideal for treating cracked heels, calluses, and dehydrated feet. Urea also enhances the skin's ability to retain moisture, leaving it soft, smooth, and healthy-looking. The Urea Foot Balm also contains Lactic Acid for enhanced skin cell renewal and Piroctone Olamine. An antifungal and antibacterial active that protects freshly exfoliated skin from fungal colonisation.
Together, they form a highly effective routine that transforms rough, tired feet into smooth, nourished, and comfortable ones you'll be proud to show off.

How to Use the Callus Cure Kit
Soften the Skin
Soak feet in warm water or use after a shower to soften skin. Or use Imperial Feet Callus Softener.
Use the Coarse Side
Use the coarse side to gently remove thick calluses or rough skin.
Smooth & Polish
Switch to the fine side to smooth and polish the skin.
Rinse the File
Rinse the file under warm water after use and allow it to air dry.
Apply Urea Foot Balm
For best results, use 1–2 times per week and follow with Urea Foot Balm.
For the thickest, most stubborn calluses, apply the Callus Softener Spray before filing and wait 30–60 seconds. The chemical softener breaks down the keratin layer so the file removes it with far less effort. This optional Step 0 is available separately or in the Premium Callus Repair Kit XL.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in the Callus Cure Kit?
The kit includes a Stainless Steel Foot File (dual-sided, coarse and fine) and a 150ml Urea Foot Balm. It does not include the Callus Softener Spray. If you want to add the Callus Softener as a pre-filing step, it is available separately, or choose the Premium Callus Repair Kit XL which includes all three products.
How does the callus removal routine work?
It includes three steps. Soften first by soaking in warm water or applying the Callus Softener Spray. Then, file using the coarse side of the Stainless Steel Foot File to remove thickened skin, then the fine side to smooth. And finally apply Urea Foot Balm generously to clean, dry feet. The Urea continues softening and moisturising between sessions.
How often should I use the foot file?
1–2 times per week for most people. For very thick or stubborn calluses, start at twice weekly until the callus reduces, then move to once weekly for maintenance. Always apply the Urea Foot Balm after filing.
What is the difference between this kit and the Premium Callus Repair Kit XL?
The Callus Cure Kit (€30.97) includes the Stainless Steel Foot File and Urea Foot Balm, the two core products. The Premium Callus Repair Kit XL (€52.97) adds the Callus Softener Spray for a complete 3-step chemical + physical callus removal system.
Is this kit safe for diabetics?
Yes. Both the Urea Foot Balm and the Stainless Steel Foot File are suitable for diabetic skin. Diabetics should be especially diligent about regular callus care thick calluses create pressure points that can lead to skin breakdown. If you have neuropathy or active wounds, consult your doctor or podiatrist before using any callus removal product.
Can I use this kit after soaking my feet?
Yes, and this is the recommended approach. Soak feet in warm water for 10–15 minutes (or use the Anti-Fungal Foot Soak) before filing. Softened skin files away far more easily and comfortably than dry skin.
