La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5+ Review: A Dry-Season Staple

By the Store Manager

After washing your face on a changing-season morning, your cheeks feel tight and your mask line is a bit red.

Key points first

Many people reach for the small blue-and-white tube: La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5+.

Per the brand, the upgraded B5+ has 5% panthenol, centella and TRIBIOMA, plus shea butter and glycerin.

Cicaplast Baume B5+ key features & specs

It's listed as free of fragrance, alcohol and parabens, for face and body, babies included.

This is the 40ml tube, easy to keep in a bag or desk drawer.

The texture is a rich cream that leaves a protective layer.

Because it's rich, oily skin should use less; PTT users suggest a thin layer or spot use.

In use: everyday scenarios

One user found a thick full-face layer occlusive and broke out, then switched to spot use.

Some apply a thick layer at night and wipe it off later; adjust to your skin.

A PTT user repurchased many tubes and found the upgrade slightly lighter.

Skincare isn't medicine; see a dermatologist for eczema, wounds or serious redness.

Store manager's take

Patch test first behind the ear or on the wrist.

This is the official La Roche-Posay store; check expiry and gifts.

It's a dry-season multipurpose balm for face, hands and elbows.
