Frequently Asked Questions
Is this body wash safe for newborns and infants with eczema-prone skin?
Yes, absolutely. La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ is safe for babies as young as 2 weeks old. It's fragrance-free, soap-free, and hypoallergenic—making it one of the gentlest options for newborn and infant skin. The National Eczema Association acceptance gives parents added confidence when bathing sensitive infants.
Will this wash trigger my child's eczema flare-ups during bath time?
No. Unlike standard soaps that strip natural oils and trigger flare-ups, this formula is soap-free and contains Colloidal Oatmeal and Shea Butter to protect and soothe reactive skin. Parents of children with eczema report that bath time becomes calmer and flare-ups decrease when switching to this dermatologist-recommended cleanser.
Can I use the same body wash for my entire family—from baby to older kids?
Yes. This is one of the few body washes safe for the entire family, from newborns through school-age children. Many parents love simplifying their household routine by using one trusted, dermatologist-approved cleanser for everyone's bath time, especially when managing eczema across multiple family members.
Does this wash leave my child's skin feeling dry or tight after bathing?
No. The formula includes Glycerin and Shea Butter specifically to lock in moisture and prevent the tight, dry feeling that can trigger eczema in children. Instead, most kids' skin feels soft, hydrated, and calm after using it—even those with sensitive or eczema-prone skin.
Is this available in a smaller size so I can try it before committing to a full bottle for my family?
Yes. La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ comes in a 3.38 fl oz trial size, perfect for testing with your child before investing in the larger 13.5 fl oz bottle. This is especially helpful if your child has had reactions to other products in the past.
How should I use La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ for best results on dry or eczema-prone skin?
Apply to damp skin during shower or bath, lather gently, and rinse thoroughly with warm (not hot) water. For best results, use daily as your primary body and face cleanser. Hot water can strip natural oils, so warm water helps preserve your skin barrier. Pat dry gently and follow with your regular moisturizer if needed, though many users find 24-hour hydration from the wash alone is sufficient.
Can I use this body wash on my face if I have sensitive or eczema-prone facial skin?
Yes. La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ is gentle enough for facial cleansing and is often recommended by dermatologists for patients with eczema on the face and neck. Its fragrance-free, soap-free formula makes it suitable for full-body and facial use, simplifying your routine if you prefer a single, multi-use cleanser.
Is this body wash safe to use during pregnancy or while nursing?
Yes. La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ is fragrance-free and formulated without harsh chemicals, making it safe during pregnancy and nursing. Many expectant and new mothers choose this cleanser because it's gentle for their own sensitive skin and safe for bathing newborns from day one, allowing the entire family to use one trusted product.
What's included in the box when I order La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+?
You'll receive the La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ body wash in your chosen size (3.38 fl oz, 6.76 fl oz, 13.5 fl oz, or 13.5 fl oz two-pack). The product ships ready to use—no additional items or setup required. If you prefer a loofah or washcloth for application, those are sold separately.
How does this body wash compare to other eczema-friendly cleansers on the market?
La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ stands out because it's the #1 body care brand in European pharmacies, dermatologist-tested, and accepted by the National Eczema Association. Many competitors claim to be eczema-friendly but lack third-party validation. Lipikar AP+ combines clinical credibility, 24-hour hydration, and a soap-free formula that most competing brands don't offer at this price point. It's also safe for newborns through adults, making it more versatile than many alternatives.
Will La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ work well if I have both eczema and acne-prone skin?
Yes. The formula is non-comedogenic, meaning it won't clog pores or trigger acne breakouts while cleansing eczema-prone areas. The gentle, barrier-supporting ingredients actually help stabilize compromised skin that may experience both conditions. However, if you have significant acne, consult your dermatologist about a comprehensive routine that may include targeted acne treatment alongside this cleanser.
Is the fragrance-free formula really fragrance-free, or does it have a light scent?
It's genuinely fragrance-free with no added perfume or fragrance compounds. You may notice a very subtle natural scent from the Shea Butter and other botanical ingredients, but there are no artificial or synthetic fragrances. This is especially important for eczema sufferers, as even 'light' fragrances can trigger reactions in reactive skin.
Can I use this body wash if I have other skin conditions besides eczema, like psoriasis or atopic dermatitis?
Yes. The dermatologist-tested formula is suitable for all types of eczema, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and clinically dry skin conditions. The combination of Colloidal Oatmeal, Shea Butter, Prebiotic Thermal Water, and barrier-supporting ingredients (Niacinamide and Glycerin) benefits any chronic skin condition characterized by dryness and sensitivity. Always consult your dermatologist if you have active lesions or severe flare-ups.
Does this body wash lather or foam, or is it a creamy cleanser?
It's formulated as a gentle foaming wash that produces a light, airy lather without the harsh sulfates found in traditional soaps. The soft foam cleanses effectively while being far gentler on eczema-prone and sensitive skin than heavy, creamy cleansers that may feel occlusive or irritating to some users.
