What is La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+Max used for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLipikar AP+Max is a rich daily moisturising balm for ultra-dry, sensitive and atopic eczema-prone skin. It is formulated for both the face and body and is suitable from newborn through to adulthood. Its role is to provide long-lasting moisturisation, support the skin barrier and reduce the discomfort associated with very dry skin. It is a cosmetic moisturiser and does not replace prescribed eczema treatment. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2. Is Lipikar AP+Max suitable for eczema-prone skin?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. La Roche-Posay specifically positions Lipikar AP+Max for ultra-dry to atopic eczema-prone skin. It can be used as part of a regular emollient routine to maintain hydration and support the skin barrier. Active, severe, infected or worsening eczema may still require appropriate medical treatment, so seek pharmacist or GP advice when necessary. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3. Can newborn babies use Lipikar AP+Max?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The current AP+Max formulation is described as suitable for sensitive skin from newborn to mature age. For babies, apply gently to clean skin and avoid the eye area. Persistent, widespread or severe skin irritation in a newborn should always be discussed with an appropriate healthcare professional. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e4. Can Lipikar AP+Max be used on the face?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. It is formulated for both face and body use. Because it has a rich balm texture, people with very dry facial skin may find it particularly useful. If your facial skin is oily or blemish-prone, a lighter moisturiser may feel more comfortable depending on your individual skin type. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e5. How long does Lipikar AP+Max moisturise the skin?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLa Roche-Posay reports up to 72 hours of hydration based on cosmetoclinical testing after regular once-daily use. Individual experience can vary depending on skin condition, bathing habits, climate and other skincare products used alongside the balm. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e6. Does Lipikar AP+Max help itchy skin?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLa Roche-Posay describes the balm as helping control sensations of itchiness associated with very dry and atopic eczema-prone skin. Persistent or severe itching can have several causes, however, and itching accompanied by infection, broken skin or worsening inflammation should be assessed professionally. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e7. How often should I apply Lipikar AP+Max?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe current manufacturer's instructions recommend applying it once daily to the entire face and body as required. Many people find application after bathing particularly convenient because the skin has just been cleansed and can be moisturised before it dries out further. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e8. Does Lipikar AP+Max contain niacinamide?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Niacinamide is listed high in the current ingredient list. It is combined with ingredients including shea butter, glycerin and dimethicone in the barrier-focused formula. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e9. Does Lipikar AP+Max contain shea butter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Shea butter is the second ingredient after water in the current formula. It is an emollient widely used in skincare for dry skin because it helps soften and nourish the skin surface. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e10. What is Neurobioma technology?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeurobioma is the name La Roche-Posay uses for technology incorporated into the updated AP+Max formulation. The balm includes microbiome-focused ingredients such as Ophiopogon japonicus root extract and Vitreoscilla ferment. For an Irish pharmacy page, it is safest to describe this as formulation technology rather than attributing unapproved medicinal effects to it. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e11. What is the difference between Lipikar AP+Max and Lipikar AP+M?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAP+Max is the newer triple-action balm formulation and is positioned with up to 72-hour hydration and Neurobioma technology. Lipikar AP+M is the previous generation within the same family of moisturising balms. Customers should check the exact pack name because both formulations may still appear in retail channels. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e12. What cleanser should I use with Lipikar AP+Max?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLa Roche-Posay recommends pairing the balm with Lipikar Syndet AP+ Cream Wash. Using a gentle cleanser can be particularly helpful for ultra-dry and eczema-prone skin because harsh soaps and very hot water may increase dryness and discomfort. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: La Roche-Posay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRange: Lipikar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct: Lipikar AP+Max Triple-Action Balm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 400ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Face \u0026amp; Body Balm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkin Type: Ultra-Dry, Sensitive \u0026amp; Atopic Eczema-Prone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable For: Newborns, Babies, Children \u0026amp; Adults\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKey Ingredients: Shea Butter, Glycerin, Niacinamide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTechnology: Neurobioma\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydration: Up to 72 Hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of Origin: France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"La Roche Posay","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57959378780504,"sku":null,"price":22.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0403\/2394\/0514\/files\/skin-care-la-roche-posay-lipikar-ap-max-triple-action-balm-400ml-la-roche-posay-lipikar-ap-max-balm-400ml-lir-pharmacy-1254108479.webp?v=1786647613","url":"https:\/\/lirpharmacy.com\/en-gb\/products\/la-roche-posay-lipikar-ap-max-triple-action-balm-400ml","provider":"Lir Pharmacy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
