An extraction-free methodology is proposed for quantifying urea in cosmetics, which relies on urea-mediated decrease of methyl red decoloration by sodium hypochlorite. The method is applied directly to the cosmetic formulation and the resulting color intensity is captured by a smartphone camera. We demonstrate a linear relationship between color intensity and urea concentration in O/W emulsions and a shampoo. This quantification methodology is fully validated by determining its technical characteristics in an O/W cosmetic emulsion: The standard curve is linear over 2.5-30.0 % w/w urea (R<sup>2</sup> ≥ 0.985). The coefficient of variation (CV %) on all quality control levels is ≤ 12.54 % for intermediate precision, indicating acceptable precision. Bias is up to ±4.93 % in the emulsion, indicating acceptable accuracy and a countable matrix effect. The proposed analysis setup in combination with a standard addition methodology is applied to verify urea content in purpose-made emulsions: bias is ≤±10.9 %, even in the presence of interfering ammonia. We finally demonstrate that the camera-captured color intensity of an O/W emulsion is proportional to different colorant concentrations in the formulation. This opens the route for further applications of the proposed setup to other ingredients capable of generating a colored product upon suitable reaction inside the formulation matrix.
