What it is

La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume B5+ 40ml is a balm-format option for a moisture finish over dry-feeling areas. B5 Cream and B5 Gel recipes are not transferred from the shared range. Choose texture and application needs before assuming a thick layer everywhere.

Read the balm base and B5-related materials

Water, Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Dimethicone, Glycerin, Shea Butter and Panthenol lead the list. Centella Leaf Extract, Yacon Root Juice, Zinc Gluconate, Madecassoside, Manganese Gluconate, Alpha-Glucan Oligosaccharide and Vitreoscilla Ferment are also disclosed. Plant-part names and Zinc Gluconate versus Zinc PCA retain distinct identities. Overlapping materials do not mean another B5 product has the same recipe.

Check skin condition and actual packaging

Adjust moisture finishing to need; discomfort is not a reason to keep adding a care-named balm. Avoid open wounds and reacting areas, and check procedure-specific instructions where relevant. No treatment result or recovery timeline is promised. The Korean notice identifies French manufacture and expiry on the pack. Remaining dispatch shelf life is not an opening period; follow the actual 40ml unit.

A buying question answered

Adjust the amount by areas needing a balm finish versus those already comfortable. B5+ Baume and Cicaplast B5 Cream are different products. The Korean notice marks no functional category; Titanium Dioxide does not create an SPF rating. Panthenol and Madecassoside are not expanded into a medicine or wound-treatment claim. Avoid eyes and reacting areas, and check the actual expiry. Separate the 40ml main unit from larger sizes and gifts.

Use and comparison choices

Spread an appropriate amount gently along the skin texture. Adjust the amount on areas still feeling dry, avoiding eye contact. Assess absorption and finish, then close the cap after use.

LANEIGE Water Bank Emulsion is a lotion-stage alternative after toner. Compare a balm finish against a spreadable lotion stage.

For daytime, compare NUMBUZIN sunscreen as a separate final sun-care stage. Moisturizer or mask use does not replace UV protection. Apply evenly over exposed areas after earlier steps absorb.

Key ingredients

PanthenolEWG 1
A precursor to vitamin B5 that converts to pantothenic acid once absorbed. It works in two directions at once, holding water and helping settle the skin barrier, which is why it appears in both calming skincare and hair care. Its low irritation profile makes it a regular in sensitive-skin formulas.
MadecassosideEWG 1
A saponin from centella, structurally madecassic acid with a sugar attached. Of the cica compounds it has attracted the most research on calming and recovery, and it is widely used in products meant for skin recovering from irritation. It is usually listed together with asiaticoside.
Shea Butter
A plant butter from the nuts of the West African shea tree, solid at room temperature and laying down a substantial occlusive layer. It is the backbone of balms and rich creams for very dry areas. Its unmistakable richness means oily-skin formulas keep the level down.
Glycerin
The most widely used humectant in skincare, drawing water toward the skin and holding it in the upper layers. Its interaction with the skin's own water channels has been studied for decades, and it is mild enough to appear across a very wide concentration range. At high levels it turns tacky, so formulas usually pair it with lighter humectants.
