Grahams Natural Alternatives Grahams Natural Diabetic Foot Cream 75g

Grahams Natural Diabetic Foot Cream has been scientifically formulated with clinically proven ingredients, specifically to complement and nurture diabetic skin. This cream is formulated to be easily applied, non greasy and to provide penetrating moisture and a very soft, low friction powder-soft finish, that helps to prevent friction and physical stresses on the skin surface.
