La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ MAX is the body balm your dry, itchy skin needs. It delivers 48 hours of deep hydration and rebalances your skin's microbiome. From the first use, your skin feels soothed and more comfortable. Formulated for very dry and atopic-prone skin, it helps reduce recurring dry episodes.

Key Benefits

  • 48-Hour Hydration: Keeps your skin deeply moisturized for a full day and night.
  • 24-Hour Anti-Scratch Action: Reduces the urge to scratch and soothes irritated skin.
  • Microbiome Rebalancing: Restores your skin's natural bacterial balance to reduce dry-skin recurrence.
  • Lipid Barrier Repair: La Roche-Posay's formula strengthens and replenishes your skin's protective barrier.
  • Fragrance-Free: High-tolerance formula safe for the whole family, including babies.

Key Ingredients

Aqua Posae Filiformis: A patented complex of thermal spring water and Vitreoscilla Filiformis bacteria. It rebalances the skin microbiome and reduces dry-skin recurrence. Microresyl: Helps space out severe dryness peaks and supports lasting skin comfort. Shea Butter: A naturally nourishing fat that strengthens the skin barrier and relieves tightness. Niacinamide: A form of vitamin B3 that reduces redness and calms irritation. Glycerine: Draws moisture into skin cells and locks it in for extended hydration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Lipikar AP+ MAX safe for babies and young children?

Yes, the formula is fragrance-free and tested on sensitive and atopic skin. It is designed for the whole family, including babies, and is safe for daily use from infancy onward.

How long before I see a real difference in my skin?

Soothing and itch relief begin with the first application. Visible microbiome rebalancing and fewer dry episodes typically develop after two to four weeks of consistent daily use.

Can I layer this over a prescription eczema cream?

Yes, this balm is commonly used alongside prescription treatments as a daily moisturizer. Apply your prescription cream first. Once absorbed, apply Lipikar AP+ MAX on top. Confirm layering order with your dermatologist.

Is this safe to use during pregnancy?

La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ MAX Lipid-Replenishing Body Balm does not contain ingredients commonly flagged for pregnancy or breastfeeding, and many customers use it during that time. La Roche-Posay does not make a specific pregnancy claim, so please check with your physician or midwife if you have any doubt.

How is this different from a standard drugstore body lotion?

Standard body lotions moisturize only. Lipikar AP+ MAX also targets the skin microbiome with Aqua Posae Filiformis and delivers clinically tested 48-hour hydration plus anti-scratch action built specifically for atopic-prone skin.
