di*******Dry SkinSensitive SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityDead Skin CellsRecommendedApr 5, 2024I feel like all La Roche-Posay products are truly amazing. When applied to dry skin, they provide just the right balance of hydration and richness. However, they can be hard to find. Occasionally, when they're on sale, the prices are good. - ma******Oily SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinRecommendedMar 21, 2024
The hydration is excellent, and personally, I'm not a fan of unscented products, so I love that this emulsion has a subtle, pleasant fragrance. While it's not comparable to a cream formulation, I felt it took a bit of time to fully absorb into the skin. Perhaps I noticed this because the product I was using just before was an emulsion that would drip when dispensed into my hand. Nevertheless, once it's completely absorbed, it feels clean on the skin. - qo**********Combination SkinSensitive SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRednessDead Skin CellsRecommendedMar 12, 2024
This product was recommended to me by an expert at Ol*ay. I have super sensitive skin that easily turns red, and after showering, I used to get stressed because my skin would become flaky with dead skin cells and itchy. I believe this product has addressed all those issues. Since it's an international product, the discounts aren't very substantial, which makes the price a bit hesitant for me. It's great to use as a body oil right after showering to lock in moisture, then follow up with an emulsion. - Hwahae UserDehydrated SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinAtopic SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRecommendedMar 4, 2024
I'm using this on my child with atopic dermatitis, as recommended by our dermatologist. The hydration it provides is more than sufficient. It's a bit inconvenient that the cream tends to get on the lid. Also, it's not widely available in many stores. Other than that, no complaints. - Hwahae UserDry SkinSensitive SkinInner DrynessRecommendedDec 10, 2023
As someone with extremely dry skin, I can feel the high level of hydration provided by the shea butter ingredient. It offers medium to high moisturization. Compared to the Bioderma Intensive Balm I used before, this is less heavy and absorbs better. It comes in a 200ml tube and a 400ml pump bottle. The tube version on the official website is fragrance-free, while the pump version sold at Olive Young has a subtle powdery scent due to the shea butter, which I personally find satisfying. If you prefer unscented products, I'd recommend getting the tube version from the official website. La Roche-Posay doesn't offer significant discounts, so it can't be considered budget-friendly. It's disappointing that the 200ml and 400ml versions aren't sold simultaneously in offline stores, making it impossible to try before buying the full size. - Hwahae UserCombination SkinAcne SkinRecommendedApr 1, 2023
I've been using this since my study abroad days in France, and I absolutely love the scent and how it absorbs! The fragrance is especially delightful. It has this comforting, cozy aroma... It's disappointing that the opening tends to crust over. I use the pump version, and I have to remove the hardened part at the nozzle every day. 
ke******Dry SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDark CirclesInner DrynessWrinkles/ElasticityEnlarged PoresRecommendedMar 14, 2023★★☆☆☆ (high) Would be perfect if it didn't contain mineral oil Gives a slight plumping sensation when applied to the face Adds a subtle glow to the skin Perfect oil and moisture balance (by my dry skin standards) It might be because I applied it to my face, but after some time it starts to pill and little balls form on the skin :( It would have been perfect if not for this... such a shame.. (Could have been due to applying too much) Thought it would be good to use before makeup → Never mind.. - ek*****Combination SkinSensitive SkinAcne SkinRecommendedOct 23, 2022
It's not sticky and great for sensitive skin types The price is painfully high! If it weren't for the cost, I'd be stocking up on this product - ti*******Dry SkinSensitive SkinAtopic SkinMay 31, 2022
Perfect lightweight formula for summer use. The generous size allows for liberal application on both face and body. It absorbs quickly, leaving skin feeling hydrated. The scent is quite strong. It's not purely powdery, with hints of citrus, but it can be overwhelming. I can't seem to get used to it no matter how often I apply. As someone with extremely dry skin, I often experience tingling with products, and this one is no exception - there's a slight burning sensation after application. 
oi****Normal SkinBrightening/Dark SpotsSebum/BlackheadsDead Skin CellsMay 5, 20221. Doesn't cause any allergic reactions and is quite gentle on the skin. 2. Provides a decent level of hydration. It has a slightly thick but easily spreadable matte milk texture that feels moist and absorbs quickly. 3. Recommended for those who prefer a mild moisturizer with adequate hydration that clings to the body, and for those who need less oiliness. 1. Among all the body creams I've used, the only memorable feature is its overwhelmingly strong powder scent, which can cause nausea. I'm not usually sensitive to fragrances, but this one is intensely potent every time I apply it, sometimes causing dizziness. 2. While it does have a sinking-in feeling when applied, in my opinion, the moisturizing power is below average, lasting power is low, skin soothing effect is poor to below average, and it can cause a slight burning sensation on sensitive or irritated areas. 3. It seems to focus on being 'inoffensive', which might suit those looking for a mild daily body cream. However, for those seeking significant moisture, skin softening, clear soothing effects, and relief from various dry skin conditions, eczema, or hives, I wouldn't strongly recommend this as the best option. 4. Recently, when I ran out of my usual body cream, I reluctantly used a NiveaX Intensive Body Emulsion that was lying around unused. Surprisingly, despite the different texture (NiveaX being less thick and easier to squeeze out), the moisturizing power was similar, but with much less fragrance and irritation. It also had better softening effects and longer-lasting hydration. As someone with extremely sensitive and typically dry to very dry skin, I usually avoid Johnson's, Neutrogena, or CetaphilX-like emulsions, preferring cosmeceutical brands. However, experiences like this remind me why well-known, long-established brands have their reputation. Even though my skin condition has improved from extremely dry, and I can now use products with moderate hydration comfortably, I found Replika to be really disappointing for its price. Don't expect too much in terms of hydration. It's all relative - even products with the lowest moisturizing power often have reviews saying they're great for hydration. Those are just from people who happen to find the product suitable for them. The truly exceptional creams are less mainstream and more likely to be shared through word-of-mouth in patient forums, with reviews that sound almost like testimonials. When you look at reviews overall, you can get a general idea, but this cream was a hasty purchase... and unsurprisingly, the satisfaction level is low. For those like me with problematic skin, we need to test various products ourselves, discontinuing use immediately if something doesn't suit us (a dermatologist told me there's no such thing as a 'purging period'), and switch to different products. Through multiple tests, we develop an eye for what works for us and what ingredients to avoid. What's a miracle cream for one person could be a hellish experience for another. Just because a product is vegan, natural, or 'free-from' doesn't mean it won't cause allergies or irritation, and conversely, a product with a few supposedly harmful ingredients might work perfectly for you.
