Is La Roche Posay Cicaplast Worth The Hype?

- La Roche Posay recently sent me their viral Cicaplast Baume and the spray version of their cicaplast Baume. I had to try it right away and whilst I love the original cream version, the spray version almost felt like a lightweight oil. not something i love for my skin!
wait just to clarify....I think everyone is using cicaplast (or Avene's Cicalfate) as a regular, everyday routine moisturizer. But it's specifically made for irritated skin, like even post chemical treatment skin, or sunburned skin. And the texture might not be to your liking if you're looking for an everyday typical moisturizer (especially Avene Cicalfate).
Yeah, i loved the former version vetter with it being more thicc™️ and more potent(?) I had sometimes horrible horrible open acne wounds. And lrp cicabalm would soothe it completely in one day and a night. I fear they reformatted it after people complaining after using it as a normal moisturiser and not a soothing "balm"
Yeah it’s suuuuuper thick
@@maristar852 yeah its potency has lessened 😭😭 it's still nice but the potency has leveled down
Yes, I saw people recommending it for under makeup. I have mixed feelings about it. Sometimes it actually makes a good base but other times there are some dry "leftovers" of the balm. I use much less than James and it's not visible on my skin, so I often use it throughout the day. There's an SPF version which I'm willing to try as well.
You mean *made for.. ?
This comment is totally unrelated… but I have to tell you- as a hairstylist- your haircut, and the style, is just so perfectly fitting for your overall face shape, bone structure, features, etc.
Folks, this is what it looks like when you’ve got it right. It compliments you.
I've been using it for couple of years and it's great for readness around pimples and i also use it as a lip balm. I avoid putting it on my skin every day since it's very rich and i don't really need that honestly.
Also, people should really watch a bit longer how their skin reacts to products that they are trying out. They put way to much trust into other people and their opinions and then wonder why it doesn't work for them the same.....
La roche posay smoothing one or ultra repairature?
Hi 💜 In France where I live, it’s what ALL tattoo artists recommend for healing and « nourishing » your skin and tattoo :)
What a great idea never thought of that 🙏😁
My boyfriend loves to steal mine for this 🤣
I never thought of this! I'm going to keep this in mind for my next one!
Aquaphor breaks me out anywhere on my body so I will ask about this next time!
I've been using La Roche Posay for ages, it's really good, especially Effaclair line for acne skin. I've been waiting for you to try this brand 💜
Cicaplast baume saved my skin when I was using harsh topical acne products. Now I use it to calm my rosacea, it works wonderfully as a quick calming mask as well! It doesn't feel very moisturizing so I prefer to use it after thinner moisturizer at night.
Hi I'm on accutane for acne, my derm recommended topical retinoid on alternate nights and my skin feel burning after that, can you please tell cicalfate by avene or la roche cicaplast balm will be more suitable for me?
@@memoonasaeed4408la Roche posay could be better, it's easier to spred, Avene is hella thick.. but, it's impossible to know for sure , i have used both with success, but befer LRP. Maybe star with their normal size version and see how it goes.. goof luck to you their both great, at least for my skin 💯🙂
Happy to hear a positive review of the reformulated cicaplast baume, a lot of people have been hating on it since it came out. The old one has been my holy grail for a while.
Is old one available now or not
@@azel9993 Not where I live, if it is anywhere then it is just the old stock they have left, they are not manufacturing it anymore.
The cicaplast have saved my life from severe acne and irritation, together with their effaclar cleanser and effaclar duo; thank you la Roche posay, how much I love you
Absolutely amazing healing balm. I prefer the gel-silicone formula tho. So good.
cicaplast has changed my skin drastically, it’s the only thing that’s gotten rid of stubborn bumps on my forehead and dryness around my cheeks. my absolute holy grail i adore it. it’s made my experience starting Differin gel so smooth too
I wish I had known about this when I started Differin a few years back. I feel like it would have really helped with the adjustment and purge periods. I've been thinking of switching to Tretinoin, just because I'm in my mid 30s now, but that adjustment period was brutal! Maybe now that I have this in my tool belt I can get through it a little easier.
Cicaplast is amazing! When flying I usually just put a thick layer on damp skin and that’s my entire routine, I’m moisturized for the entire trip!
I LOVE the balm at night in the winter. Absolutely saved my dry chapped skin. Also great after any skin treatments that may leave your face a little sensitive, red, whatever… probably the best find since my skin started changing in my 40s ❤
The fix for this i found its mixing my regular moisturizer (cosrx snail cream or cerave lotion) with a bit of cicaplast. Leaves my skin beautiful
I have both of those moisturizers and they aren't helping me much, now should i invest in la roche cicaplast balm or avene cicalfate?
This product really helped my skin, I’ve been using it for a few months and it’s better than any other product I have tried. I have sensitive skin and I get lots of pimples, this really helps with it, this may not be the ideal product for everyone but it is for me.
the balm is the BOOOOOOMB!!! i swear by it, recommended it to several people, it's like a little soothing, protecting vial of magic. And even though it's rich in texture, it doesn't bother me one bit, just don't slather it on.
I keep trying to tell my customers that this is a great skin balm for these New York winters. Some have loved it, but many are reluctant to try new things. La Roche has a ton of really great products and their triple moisture lotion has worked wonders in a few days. I almost never put on lotion, so my skin is cracked like a crocodile. Just 3 days of that lotion, you would think I'm slugging my legs at night.
Jesus loves you so much more than you think repent and stay blessed❤❤
It's amazing on my sister's skin, she's has a topical allergy and her skin is very dry and irritated so it's saves her when it's very bad
I use the balm as my night cream after my retinoid and it has been the most helpful part of my routine. I’m super sensitive and this keeps my skin calm and happy. I’m eager to try the spray, but I’m not confident based on your experience. I love their toleraine line of cleansers and lotions and their sensitive skin micellar water is similar to bioderma’s pink one. Oh, and the ciciplast hand cream and lip ointment are top tier.
Love to see review of product I can easily buy in my country for once 😭
Me too!
Honestly I need to start buying skincare from the actual country I live in more haha
I have dry skin and I turn on the AC at night. After trying so many night creams, this is the one that actually works to lock in moisture.
I also suffer from rosacea and this was my go to for the longest time but I tried the la Roche posay Lipikar and LOVE it, it's so moisturising and calming for my skin, it's my fave and perfect for anyone who has eczema prone skin too
I didn’t know what use in this range format roscea skin - after watching this video I’m defo gonna check it out now ! I have dry skin too
i loooove this product so much for the sides of my nose, especially when it gets dry and cracked 10/10💕💕
So glad you reviewed these. I've never bought the Cica-Plast because it's tested on animals, but I've been tempted, I'll be honest. I was also inclined to try the new spray... not so much now. Thanks James!
The balm is not tested on animals, neither is most of their range except for the sunscreens, they allow the sunscreens to be tested on animals by third parties in China for approval to be sold there.
You teach me something new everyday 😊 TYSVM ☮️💕
For me, Avene's Cicalfate+ is more moisturizing and soothing. I have La Roche-Possay's Cicaplast Balm as well. I dealt with a really bad episode of perioral dermatitis from the end of September to mid December. It was awful! I usually stick to a pretty strict skincare routine, but every once in a while I get an itch to change it up, and I did too much too fast and completely screwed up my skin barrier. I usually deal with it a couple of times a year, usually when the weather changes, but this was 100% my fault and I paid the price. It was a rough couple of months, but I made it to the other side. I had gotten the Cicaplast when it first started appearing, but it wasn't soothing enough for me. I switched to Avene's and it was a game changer for me. It was so soothing and just made my skin feel so much better. I still use it daily because I live in Michigan and my skin really goes through it during the harsh winter months. I dab a little on my cheeks and it really help with the redness from the wind, and I dab a little under and around my nose to help clear up the redness and irritation from constantly having to blow my nose. I also put some on any blemishes I get that need extra TLC besides my daily Differin treatment. I still have the Cicabalm and will use it occasionally, but it just doesn't seem as moisturizing on my skin as the Cicaplast+. It almost feels like it leaves a chalky layer on my skin. It does help with redness though! I'm thinking that during the warmer months it will work better for me because it doesn't feel as heavy on my skin as Avene's does.
Noted.
Btw is there a prune smell to the B5..?
I was using old version LRP Cicaplast baume b5 as my night moisturiser during autumn/winter and my skin improved drastically. My acne disappeared and the texture really got better. The thickness of it made me buy Avene cicalfate that is even thicker (in Europe) and it doesn't moisturize the skin as a LRP, so for us with dry skin LRP is a better choice. Now I'm getting sceptical about new formulation and should I buy it
Thanks for Information. Is there any Update? Did you try the new formula or switched back to cicalfate? I cant decide what to buy, Never tried baume so far.
I have dry sensitive skin (normally i dont like cremes at all cause the risk for breaking out is high) but i Need something for heal the barrier).
Tend to cicalfate cause less ingredients but the Feedback for LRP is so good
You should try the one for the lips too! Especially the one in the tube, it's my favourite to repair my lips when I wear lipstick often.
Omg name??
@@emyf9197 "La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Lips", I put it on right before bed and my lips feel great again the next morning! Very underrated product imo.
For me the lip balm was pretty meh, the handcream however is the only thing that saved my hands from drying out to the point if bleeding in winters.
@@morgianasartre6709 Do you mean the tube or the stick? Because the lip balm (the stick), while my go to, is indeed very average for me; but I specifically mean the cicaplast one in a tube being great!
@@Yorea I've only tried the one in the tube as I saw good reviews and was underwhelmed, in fact was pretty happy for it to finally end. 🙈
I have a lot of cuts, burns etc… as a clumsy person this balm is my go to! It’s quite amazing, I burned a big patch of skin on my skin and the scar is barely visible; just some light discolouration all thanks to that balm. I’m now using it on some surgery scar and it’s not doing wonders but it helps to smooth it out and helps to keep the irritation away. It’s a life saver.
I get contact dermatitis and this is the ONLY cream that clears it up in 3-4 days! Soooo refreshing when left in the fridge too before application
LP is my all time fav skin care product and I’ve been using it for years… can’t believe you’re late to Game for this 1.
Uhhh the only skincare thing I actually feel working love the baume thingy 💓
Yes it is absolutely worth it. I love this stuff I always have a backup!!
I personally prefer the Bioderma Atoderm intensive Baume, really affordable, it has ceramides, niacinamide, prebiotics, fragrance, alcohol and essential oil free.
I don’t know if this is still super popular like a few months ago, but god I hated when it became trendy. I have eczema, this is the only product I’ve found that helps and prevents my facial skin from peeling. I know it’s not other people’s problem but gosh I wish people without sensitive or damaged skin would just use normal moisturizers so I could find this in stores 😭
Try there hand cream as well its amazing. But this cream is my fave product in years I have found the hydration it gives my face is like nothing else I have tried 🥰
its not an everyday moisturizer but its great for healing and soothing truly would buy again and again
I discovered this cream years ago when my dermatologist recommended it to use it after laser treatment. It literally heals the skin in just a few days.
I still use this cream, locally on post acne scars. I noticed they heal much faster and leave no marks.
But I cannot use it as a moisturiser alone, I find it to heavy and sits a lot on the top of the skin. The purpose of the cream is to create a protective layer, so probably that's why it doesn't sink in as fast as normal moisturiser.
I personally wouldn't use this as a moisturiser if you have oily, acne prone skin.
I love la roche posay products. The only affordable brand that has worked for me.
If any of y’all have struggles with eczema, try the lipikar eczema soothing relief cream. It’s a life saver and the only non prescription product that stops my eczema from becoming a full blown rash. I use it when i’m in the very beginning stages- itchy/dry but no visible rash/red bumps yet. If you know, you know. 😒
Jesus loves you so much more than you think repent and stay blessed❤❤
I'm a chronic plucker and picker. Often tear up my chin going crazy with tweezers. this is the only thing I've found that helps with that soreness
I love it I use it on my face everyday my skin has never look better looks younger as well I'm onlove very glowy too I also use the serum too its amazing im 41 makes me look younger for sure I use to have red patchy skin now I don't
Question, are you working it in with your tretinoin routine? If so, how would that go?
Finally!! Can you review more La Roche Posay? :)
This is the only skin product I have been able to get my husband to use everyday...he loves it!
I'd be really interested in seeing more about this brand!
I love this balm. During the winter I had horrible eczema all over my face. I was at my wits end, it looked awful and it was so embarrassing. I used this and it cleared up in under a week. It was amazing. 😅
Which bioderma products are good for oily combination skin.
Thank you for clarify it.
I use the gel after retinol burn because my doctor was insisted I have to use every single day but I have extremely sensitive skin. And it worked wonders. I also used Midnight Blue cream and serum from Klairs (kbeauty) with it but Cicaplast did the healing i tried without it nothing worked
It’s also REALLY GOOD for mosquito bites ! It stops the itch
This is completely sold out in Canada 🇨🇦. Nothing of the B5 Cicaplast left on the shelves. That is enough said about how great they all are!
How does it feel on skin Jamie? Does this feel like cerave moisturizing cream? Kinda thick n heavy ?
This works wonders for me as a spot treatment for breakouts, I’ll dab it onto pimples and the next morning they’re flat or completely gone!
Wow your skin is beautiful ❤❤❤
Do you use this during the day or only at night? I’m currently facing a mild damaged skin barrier due to a product reaction and my skin feels dry but looks oily
Just wondering - you don't put a cream on your beard? Should we bood this area or was it just for video purpose?
Do you know if the balm is safe for fungal acne ? Or seb derm prone skin
No, it's not sadly ; ~ ;)
But careve healing ointment is!
You can check if things are fungal acne safe with scincarisma ingredient analyzer ^w^
the balm can burn my skin sometimes if it's super irritated :( i have to use gool ol vaseline instead but the balm is good for areas that need more hydration since it dries down a bit so it's not sticky like vaseline
It's definitely a night cream!!
I use that at night, its amazing for my dry skin. But now I cant find it in stores and online...
And there is the spf50 version that I use during the winter, its very good.
I discovered that a while ago after looking up recommended products for scars and butt rash 🤫 works wonders on the bum and helps with scar healing 😊
Love the hair today!
Is it only me that both this and any cerave moisturisers cause milia to me? Been trying the LRP efaclar for dry skin from tretinoins and seems a bit better
yes!
Had no idea about the spray and thanks to your review will skip. 😅 👍
The balm is Goated
I won't be without the baume I love it
Avene cica range vs La Roche cica range - who wins?
Sooo please enlighten me, is it best to use as a standalone moisturiser? Or use another moisturiser underneath and use this over the top as a more occlusive layer? I couldn't get my hands on the laroche so I've been using the avene alternative as an occlusive layer in the evening over the top of a lighter moisturiser.
Yeah, it's totally better to be used as an occlusive layer!
I really loved this product, my top 5 best actually, but then I got the new + version and it’s sucks. My skin feels dry after I use it and I don’t know what can cause this. So sad😢
James Not sure if you have ever tried One Skin face & body lotions but they are better than a lot of products on the market it’s like that is all you need to use just the one product instead of multiple products on your face and or on your body
What's the name of the spray? The only spray I've seen from that brand is their "toner".
Love it and hate it in the same time. Rapidly sooth the skin but sadly provoke acne for me. I'm searching for an alternative as effective but doesn't make me breakout.
I love the cicaplast GEL
Is it okay if use this because my skin was super redness,cystic acne,irritation.
After enzyme peeling, perfecr
Does it have fragrance?
Damn James, went to Boots today to get it and they've told me it's been selling FO FAST. So I am obviously blaming you, lol
My very irritated skin is looking forward to try it xx
Where is everyone finding big sizes? Mine are always smaller. Both me and kiddo use it for lip balm at night, on our acne/psoriasis on our face and for cracked hands that are irritated. I go through it pretty quickly. Would love bigger sizes
On internet
I love the cream, recently started using but it's so soothing. The spray sounds strange tho
I like it, trying skin food by weleda next and then Egyptian magic cream
Tried this brand and the cleanser burned my skin, definitely not for me. Honestly finding it so hard to find a brand that doesn't irritate my skin.
Do you get rosacea I cannot seem to get rid of my red cheeks :(
Where to buy La Roche Posay that ships internationally?
My skin like this one
I’m trying this but their effaclair range is amazing especially the AHA face wash. Only thing that’s made my skin consistently clear and smooth.
So this is safe for acne prone skin?
Can I use this as a moisturizer?
I wanna try that spray but I've never seen it in my country 😢
I love this in winter when my skins irritated or tretinoin dry.
What can i use it with please???
Hey, I'm looking for some advice (not on this product) from people that use La Roche Posay, particularly the foundation sunscreen. I've tried using it and it just cracks and looks awful if anyone in the comments has a suggestion on how to use it that would be awesome, I don't think James uses a tinted sunscreen. I should probably ask Robert but I've never seen him use La Roshe Posay 😅
his recent favorite tinted sunscreen is from undefined beauty r&r serum in the blue bottle. he shared it in his previous videos.
@@louiegraphy so I should throw out the $50 la Roche Posay one out and get that one?
@@nicolorange have you tried layering hydrating products underneath the LRP tinted sunscreen to prevent cracking? if a product doesn’t work well on the face, i either use it on different areas of the body i.e. neck, arms, legs, etc or give the product to family/friends instead of throwing it away.
I've been using Cicaplast for years now every day, and no matter how many moisturizers I try, this is the best. I've got eczema and acne, and this product saved my skin from flareup, irritation and breakouts. Is the best product that I ever used.
I use this around my bikini area after I shave and I have no irritation
For some reason it had like a white casty look on me
The balm is incredible! But I also dislike the spray. It IS sticky and makes me feel like I didn’t wash my face.
I wish I could find the spray
How do you manage to review so many products though… don’t you have to use them for a while to even see the effects.
Hi dose b5 clogged pore ? Cos I have oily skin
There is one pore-clogging ingredient... But I have oily skin, and it works just fine! So it really depends..! I recommend to buy the smallest version if you want to give it a try. But you can switch it for cerave healing ointment, which doesn't seem to have any comedogenic ingredients and supposed to work the same!
❤❤
I love it for scars
