About Chapcure 1 mg Cream

Chapcure 1 mg Cream contains Lanolin. It is also known as wool wax which is a natural substance made from sheep’s wool. It works by forming an oily layer on the top of the skin that traps in the water. Thereby moisturizing the outermost layer of skin and making it smoother and softer.
