  • Dermatologist-recommended, sensitive-skin formulations
  • Effective acne-fighting effaclar treatments
  • Gentle, thorough toleriane cleansers
  • Soothing, reparative cicaplast balms
  • Sunscreen shine and white cast
  • Occasional heavy, occlusive textures
  • Notable fragrance in some serums
  • Inconsistent results for rosacea

La Roche-Posay earns strong reviews as effective, dermatologist-trusted care for sensitive and acne‑prone skin, with standouts like Effaclar Duo, Toleriane cleansers/moisturizers, Cicaplast B5, and Anthelios sunscreens delivering clearer, calmer, well‑hydrated skin. Reviews also flag drawbacks: some sunscreens leave shine or a temporary white cast, certain formulas feel heavy or cause breakouts, occasional noticeable fragrance, and mixed results for rosacea.

  • LRP is my #1 go to. I believe they can address any skin concerns and you just need to figure out which line to use for your concerns. It is so good.

  • I've tried many LRP products over the years. Nothing fancy, just simple ingredients that are gentle on the skin.

  • My favorite product is the Cicaplast Balm B5. I use it as a hand cream before bed and it makes them sooooo hydrated in the morning.

  • Their sunscreen is absolutely amazing. Works wonders to block UV rays and goes on extremely light. Does not feel thick, sticky, nor have a strong sunscreen scent. Literally feels like putting on lotion.

  • Their gentle cleanser is the best in the market. I won't use anything else and I love they have a travel version of it <3

  • My staple everyday sunscreen. Definitely works for the Texas heat. I use the Anthelios 50 Mineral Ultra-Light Sunscreen Fluid SPF 50. It tends to leave a white cast, so I make sure to use only a little bit at a time and I wait for it to absorb before I leave the house.

  • The Toleriane Double Repair Facial Moisturizer is one of my favorite lightweight moisturizers. It almost has a gel-like feeling which makes it feel cooling on the skin, especially during the summer.

  • I have tried the triple moisturizer and I loved it! This product left my face feeling so refreshed I felt like I could take on the world!

  • My review is specifically for their "Lipikar AP+ Triple Repair Moisturizing Cream", my dermatologist recommended this when I was struggling with eczema on the back of my hands that kept coming back after I stopped using steroid eczema treatments. This seemed to help more than any lotion I tried, I used it in addition to the steroid cream, but after I completed my prescription I kept using this and it seems to help prevent it from returning. I use it when ever I start getting patches again and it seems to help. It also has the National Eczema Association seal of approval.

  • Across the whole line, I have not found anything that irritates my sensitive skin. Although the product is on the expensive side, it is effective and long-lasting with serums and eye creams applied 2x a day lasting up to 8 months.

  • As someone with extremely sensitive skin, this brand is huge for me. I use their prebiotic cicaplast moisturizer in the AM and PM and have noticed a significant decrease in my skin sensitivity.

  • Bought this as a recommendation for a 4 month old with eczema. This cleared the under chin eczema within a week. Also love their eco friendly packaging.

  • I started using the Cicaplast Baume when my old moisturizer stopped being sold. I was exctatic to find a new mouistrizer that didn't irritate my skin and didn't leave my skin feeling sticky. I recently started using their sunscreen and equally love that product as well. I look forward to the next La Roche-Posay product I try.

  • As an active biker during summer and winter my skin is sensitive against cold and warmth. Since last year I have been using La Roche-Posay skin products Lipikar shower oil and Lipikar Baume AP+M. Since I started using it my skin doesn't tend to react to the cold anymore and no more discomforts of it. Lipikar AP+M is not greasy and has no smell. I'm happy with the products.

  • FAVORITE skincare brand. Love ever single product the company has, they have the best face moisture. I have extremely sensitive skin and their balm in my all time favorite to heal my skin. AMAZING brand

  • TOLERIANE PURIFYING FOAMING FACIAL WASH is my favorite face wash for my oily to sensitive skin. I use this everyday and it thoroughly cleanses my skin
