[@Kikapacino]

I started to use Cicaplast after I destroyed my skin barrier with too much serums, it fixed it in just couple of days. Since that time I use it as moisturiser and I LOVE it. Love the feel of it, consistency, everything. My skin is naturally dry and it can get very dry thru some months as I work outside and this product is a life saver 💙💙💙

[@Marvee78]

I live in Scandinavia and this cream is a lifesaver during winter over my regular moisturiser at night, and a day cream during brutal winter days spent outside.

[@nazibaz1927]

What is your winter cream? I want a good moisturizer for dry skin.

[@a-7886]

I have been mixing a pea size of this with a pea size of Azelaic acid 15% gel, I have acne prone skin with hyperpigmentation and it has made my skin flawless!! I recommend starting from a smaller amount of azelaic acid then slowly increase the quantity. Its such a great combination. I only do this 3 times a week and use other serum and sleeping mask to aid further hydrate and exfoliate the skin. I love how well you do these product reviews!! ♥️

[@cristinitaandco]

Ehat serum do you use, thanks for your idea

[@rennahalim5401]

Mind share which brand u use Azelaic Acid 15% gel? do u use the B5 first the following by Azelaic? Or just completely mixing them pea size? Do u put all over ur face or just ur redness and scars? thank u 🙏🏻 and how often do u use (every other day/ everyday?) thank u very much 💙💖

[@a-7886]

@@cristinitaandco I use the Aveeno Calm + restore triple oat serum it hydrates skin very well and affordable. I apply it then tap in to skin it absorbs quickly then I apply a moisturiser it can be any that your skin is happy with. And on days that I feel like my skin is on the dry side I apply this Aveeno serum, followed by day moisturiser with SPF in it gives a nice glow under foundation but also hydrates my skin and allows it to recover. sorry for late reply! I just saw your comment .

[@a-7886]

@@rennahalim5401 Sure, so azelaic acid gel at 15% is prescription only, so I bought mine of an online pharmacy ( I live in UK) when requesting the Azelaic acid gel I basically explained that I had used azelaic acid at 10% its from Paula’s choice which is pricy and my skin had built up tolerance, so I told them I will be using it for acne hyperpigmentation , its also used as an acne treatment in dermatology. So they actually approved it and sent me the Azelaic acid gel its the Finacea 15% gel azelaic acid . But make sure its from a trusted pharmacy and its more cost effective than using a cream version at low dose from skincare brands which is not as effective as the gel. In terms of use I first made the mistake of directly applying it to my face it stings and dried my face out the first 3 times I used it within a week span. So I the best approach I found is to directly mix a small amount of the Azelaic acid gel with the +B5 cream on the back of the hand . So a pea size of +B5 then on top of that pea size add a small amount of azelaic maybe a little less than a pea size on the first few nights, mix with finger till you know you’ve mixed up the two then apply all over face and neck , avoid eye area, I apply B5+ alone to under eye these nights . for protection. I would say start by doing this twice a week for the first two weeks then change to three times a week. But no more than three times a week. Use the following nights as recovery phase, apply hydrating sleeping masks and moisturisers that will calm and protect your skin and allows turn over . Always at night. And make sure you use SPF50 to protect your face during the day.

[@specialtwice4975]

I think it's great if you want to calm the skin/heal your moisture barrier. It's cheap too. The one downside I have though is it isn't hydrating. If you have dry to very dry skin then this lotion will last only a few hours.

Ya, not moisturizing at all on my dry face. But I didnt find any LRP lotions to be very good. Maybe its just me. Their 'hydrating' face wash was horrible too.

As a mom living in Central Europe who's dealt with the dry and wet winters, with nasty diaper rash on my babies' bottoms (I have 3 kids!), and who's has been using Cicaplast Baume B5 (night moisturiser) for years and the Cicaplast Baume B5+ SPF50 (as a daytime moisturiser) for more than a year now, I would NOT recommend using Cicaplast to treat diaper rash. My best bet for treating my baby's diaper rash is Weleda Baby Calendula Wundschutzcreme - it contains all the ingredients essential to treat rashes and protect your baby's bottoms: zinc oxide, almond oi, calendula flower extract, chamomile flower extract, and beeswax! I still use it to my now 7yo daughter for her skin rashes and itchy, dry skin!

Echoing someone else's comment, it leaves a cast, I mean a pale white cast which will be whiter or less white depending on how much is used. For this reason, I tend to use it in the evening at home.
