La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5+ is designed to provide immediate soothing and long-term repair for your skin. Upon application, its rich balm texture creates a protective layer that helps to calm irritation and reduce redness associated with dryness or chapping. The combination of Panthenol (Vitamin B5) and Madecassoside works synergistically to accelerate the skin's natural recovery process, reinforcing the skin barrier against external aggressors.
For Dry Patches: Apply a small amount to severely dry areas on the face or body to alleviate flakiness and tightness.
For Chapped Lips/Skin: Gently dab onto chapped lips, nose, or other areas affected by cold weather or dehydration for quick relief and repair.
For Minor Irritations: Use on minor scrapes, superficial burns (e.g., from cooking), or post-procedure redness (like after shaving or mild exfoliation) to soothe and promote healing. Always ensure skin is clean and intact.
Daily Barrier Support: Integrate into your evening routine to support skin barrier health, especially if you have sensitive or compromised skin.
Application Tip: A little goes a long way. Gently massage the balm into the affected area until absorbed. For a protective layer, apply a slightly thicker amount without rubbing it in completely.
Setup (Application):
Ensure the skin area is clean and dry before application.
Squeeze a small amount of Cicaplast Baume B5+ onto your fingertip.
Gently apply a thin layer to the affected area. Avoid rubbing too vigorously.
Reapply as needed, typically once or twice daily, or as advised by a skincare professional.
