La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5

I’ve been using this as moisturizer for years. It has a little odd scent but very effective for my combination skin. It does feel a little thick so it’s best used at night if you have oily skin.

I first tried Cicaplast Baume B5 after persistent prodding from my bestfriend that this product does wonders to her skin (she sent me this on my birthday). Now I have been using it for the past 2 years as part of my skin care routine, as a gal who travels a lot for work, I always have my Cicaplast Baume with me to treat and soothe my skin from dryness (i have dry skin), redness from sun exposure (i am an engineer and usually out on field), and prevention from blemishes. It has no smell and very tipid a small pea size can go a long way. Overall it is effective for me and i would recommend it for people with the same skin type 🙂

I can honestly say that this healed my skin barrier. I have oily acne-prone skin and it got to the point where my face got so many marks and scars that I didn't want to use any other product to disrupt my skin barrier other than a face wash and a moisturizer. I used the Senka Moisturizing Face Wash and this together for 3-5 days and saw great improvements in my skin, even though I was an oily face girl, and this was a bit heavy. But I didn't mind it as I wanted something super moisturizing to heal my skin. And it did.

I don’t really spend a lot in skin care because I can’t stay consistent with the routine. But this product really changed my perspective on skin care overall! I have a combination type skin so I only use this twice a week and it has worked miracles! (Especially on my red days when my skin is at its worst). It makes my skin look and feel healthier. This is probably my favorite purchase of the year!

I've been hesitant to try Western skincare products ever since I had some bad experiences and stuck solely to Asian brands. But La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5 completely changed my mind. It proved that I just needed to find the right products that truly deliver on their promises. This balm has been a lifesaver for my damaged skin barrier. It's soothing, and hydrating, and helped my skin heal and feel strong again. I refuse to settle for less now.
