In Athlete's foot: Lulicute 1% clears the itchy, peeling, cracked skin between the toes and on the soles, and helps stop the infection returning.
In Dandruff: Lulicute 1% controls the yeast that drives flaking and itching of the scalp, so dandruff clears and the scalp settles.
In Nail fungal infection: Lulicute 1%, applied to the nail, slowly clears a mild fungal nail infection as the healthy nail grows out.

How to use
