"The La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ moisturizer is one that you'll really enjoy if you have more mature, dry skin. It comes in a huge size, which is a good option. This can be a little thick for people's faces, but if you have really dry skin, I think you will actually quite like this one a lot."

"We're going to go with the La Roche-Posay Lipikar Balm AP+M Triple Repair Moisturizing Cream. What do I like about that? Minimalistic, extremely hydrating, it's a bit of a thicker base. I feel like the wax esters are particularly prominent. That's a top tier one."

"Considering La Roche-Posay Lipikar Balm AP+M, that's a great moisturizer that looks at the microbiome. It's very hydrating, it's very moisturizing, and it actually has been shown in studies to help supplement your biologics or systemic oral medications for your atopic dermatitis. I saw a TikTok the other day of someone with really bad hand eczema, and she said she went through all the hand moisturizers and showed all the different ones, but the one that worked best for her, that helped heal her eczema, was the Lipikar Balm AP+M by La Roche-Posay. So I stand by that one, that's a great one."

"If you're dealing with eczema or atopic dermatitis, there is this nice moisturizer by La Roche-Posay. They have great thermal spring water, I've been to the town of La Roche-Posay in France, it's a really cute little town, and they harvest their spring water from below and it's rich in these great minerals, especially selenium, selenium being soothing and anti-inflammatory. So they use that water in their great skincare products. The Lipikar AP+M really helps with restoring the microbiome of your skin, so all the billions of bacteria that's on your skin, it will help rebalance it, because when things are off you can get into bad things like psoriasis. Now the AP+M Lipikar moisturizing cream has evidence behind it, it has shown to help with quality of life measures, itch scales can be improved if you're using this in conjunction with systemic medications like a jak inhibitor or dupilumab, a biologic to help with eczema on face or body. They have shown in a study that this can help itch scores by adding that into a regimen, so having a moisturizer along with these systemic medications, which are very expensive at times."

"The La Roche-Posay Lipikar line is great, the lotion, the moisturizer, you can use it on the face. The Lipikar moisturizer is great. But the thing about it that gets on my nerves is the packaging, because once you get down to about a third left of the product, it starts to wall out, the pump has tunneled and it's like a dud, and all the remaining product is just holding on for dear life to the sides of the bottle."

"The triple repair moisturizing cream, I really like it. It has niacinamide, which is good for the moisture barrier. It's really good if you have atopic dermatitis because it helps with barrier replenishment. It has ceramides as well, lipids which are naturally found in your skin barrier. It's not greasy, and it's great if you've got raw, rashy eczema that's flared up. It's not sticky."

"This is one of La Roche-Posay's best products, and it's really good if you have windburn. I only use it situationally, to cut down on chafing from running, and it's great in that regard. But it's also great if you get any kind of irritation on the face. When you're putting it on, it's almost like putting on a zinc sunscreen, but it does rub in and doesn't leave any kind of white cast, maybe a little bit of white film, but it definitely creates a nice protective layer. The thing about this, though, you will likely have a hard time if you put this on the face in the morning as a skin protectant and then try to put sunscreen on over it. It's balmy, so you may get quite a bit of peeling, and sunscreen may not set up over it. But it's great to use at night, and if you're starting to get sentinel sign on your finger, consider giving this a try. Sentinel sign is basically a hallmark finding of when your hand is about to get really dry, cracked, and irritated. It's a little bit of redness and flaking right in the web spaces between your fingers."

"La Roche-Posay Lipikar Balm AP+M Triple Repair Moisturizing Cream is really good. You can use this on the face and the body. It has niacinamide in it, which is good for redness and hyperpigmentation. It's a little more lightweight in comparison to that Avino Itch Relief Balm, but it's very rich, and I always suggest this as a product to use for people who are dealing with a lot of discoloration in the skin folds, like under the arms, maybe under the breast, because it will help cut down on irritants penetrating the skin that can worsen that hyperpigmentation. The niacinamide can help slow down the spread of pigment packets from the pigment producing cells, melanocytes, to neighboring keratinocytes, so it helps to lighten some types of discoloration. But it's also helpful for the moisture barrier. It's not irritating, so this formula is really good, it's a really good face and body moisturizer. For $29.99 you get the full size bottle and you get a travel size."

"I purchased the La Roche-Posay Lipikar Balm AP+M Triple Repair Moisturizing Cream. This is a dimethicone based skin protectant which I love, but I was curious to see how this performed around the eyes. This is great for reducing chapping, so I've been trying it out and it's not bad at all. The dimethicone, it's a skin protectant, so it helps limit penetration of irritating things, it reduces transepidermal water loss, and it definitely has a smoothing effect. It also has like a pore blurring effect. This has a definite powder finish to it. It's not as amazing as the glycerin skin protectant around the eyes, but it's definitely impressive, and if you have eyelid irritation this is a great thing to use around the eyes to protect eyelids from irritants that drive flares of eyelid dermatitis. This is a great option. This is great and it's under seven bucks. It's meant for chafing so you can put it under your arms as a side note, if you get underarm irritation from shaving or from an antiperspirant, put this under your arms."

"This moisturizer makes a great complement because of the rich and nourishing formula, it really helps to reduce the irritation and dryness that retinoids often impart on our skin. This is La Roche-Posay Lipikar Balm AP+M Triple Repair Moisturizing Cream, and it retails for 20 bucks. I first mentioned it probably a couple years back when I first recommended moisturizers for eczema and dry skin, and to this day it's still one of the products we use regularly in my household, especially during the wintertime. I love the cream formula, it's really suitable to use in the winter, especially if you, your kids, or a family member struggle with dry and eczema-prone skin. I love that it comes in a pump, it's really easy to dispense, making bathtime routines much more doable if you have little ones. It's actually approved for babies two weeks and older, and it also has the National Eczema Association seal of approval, so it's fragrance-free and really ideal on eczema-prone and sensitive skin. And lastly, it's just versatile in the sense that you can use it on face and body, so it really helps to simplify your skincare routine, especially for parents who want to make bedtime manageable and easy while making sure your kid's skin stays hydrated and supported."

"I am a huge fan of the Lipikar line in general. The Lipikar AP+M is our go to moisturizer for the entire family during the winter. I love it for a few reasons. It's a big bottle in a pump style, so really easy to dispense. I literally pump a couple handfuls after bathing my kids and just lather them in the moisturizer. But it has wonderful ingredients, including La Roche-Posay's thermal spring water, which we know is soothing and calming, glycerin, shea butter, and niacinamide."

"Next is the La Roche-Posay Lipikar Balm, so this is a triple action balm with anti-itching, repairing, and immediate soothing properties. All of that is 100% true. This really helps to relieve itch, dryness, irritation. It really calms your skin if it's a little angry. I love using this on my legs and my arms and my chest because of how moisturizing it is. It does give a little bit of a greasiness to the skin, but it's not super greasy where you couldn't wear this during the day. You will have a little bit of a shine to your skin, which I think looks really nice if you have like a sleeveless top on or you're wearing shorts. But if your skin is itchy and it's dry, this is amazing, you have to try it. About a week and a half ago I had a mosquito bite and I didn't have any after bite, that stuff that you can put on mosquito bites to stop the itch. I thought I would try this because this is anti-itch, and you know what, it actually worked. I didn't think it was going to work but it really did, so that was also really impressive. But I just love how moisturizing it is and it really gives your skin this nice soft feel. If you have any scaliness on your legs or your arms, this gets rid of that. So if you're looking for a really good, rich, repairing, soothing body lotion or body cream or body balm, which is what it's called, then you need to look into this."

"This is my current go-to moisturizer at night time, the La Roche-Posay Lipikar triple repair moisturizing cream. I always found this bottle to be kind of weird, but it's really nice. I get out of the shower, apply a serum, give it a minute to soak in, then I apply this. It's kind of sticky though, I'm not exactly sure why, my pajama pants get stuck to it and the sheets get stuck to it, but it's still super hydrating and moisturizing. Shea butter, water, ceramide, rapeseed oil. It's great for sensitive skin, but it is kind of tacky. I still want to repurchase it, I've bought it multiple times."

"My number one product that I use to moisturize my body, for years now, and I have not found anything better, honestly I'm not even looking, is the La Roche-Posay Lipikar Balm AP+M Triple Repair Moisturizing Cream, the cream form of this product, not the lotion. Lotions are the thinnest, least hydrating. Creams are more thick and more hydrating. Then you have balms and ointments, which are the heaviest. I usually go for a cream, it is the most user-friendly but gives the best hydration. This has ceramides, shea butter, glycerin, and niacinamide in it, so it is beautiful at repairing the body and then getting hydration in there and keeping it there. You cannot beat this product."

"I really like this one, the La Roche-Posay Lipikar Balm AP+M Triple Repair Moisturizing Cream. It's quite fatty, which is nice, so it's really great for children as well, a lot of kids have eczema, so I would highly, highly recommend this product. It is a bit expensive, I think, but it's a big bottle. It's really nice on the skin and it's not sticky."

"Something I've been doing a lot this winter is mixing in a little small amount of the Triple Repair Moisturizing Cream from La Roche-Posay. This is such a nourishing, really moisturizing, quite thick and heavy cream that feels so good when my skin is really, really dry. It's not always the most appropriate for my skin, which fluctuates with the seasons, so sometimes I like to just balance out that really heavier texture with a more medium texture. This cream also seems to help give a little bit more occlusivity to my skin, which I can't emphasize enough how windy it is and that can make my skin feel a little bit irritated. This just feels the right amount of moisture, the right amount of thickness, to just seal everything in. That feels amazing."
