4.6Cicaplast B5 Serum

  • “It brings more moisture into the skin than Vaseline or Aquaphor does”11:04–11:11
  • “Because of the soothing elements in here, it actually brings a lot of relief to the skin on contact as well”11:33–11:37

  • “You can actually apply this cream throughout the day to get a little bit of relief in between your skin care routines”12:17–12:21

Brand note

French pharmacy skincare built around barrier repair and sun protection.

La Roche-Posay is the French pharmacy brand that creators consistently turn to for reliable, dermatologist-backed skincare — especially when skin is irritated, compromised, or needs serious sun protection. The Cicaplast Baume B5+ is the anchor product here, a thick, balm-like repairing cream that soothes damaged skin and helps restore the barrier, though its heavy texture can feel greasy or cause breakouts for oily types.
