La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+M Triple Repair Body Moisturizer for Extra Dry Skin 28 ingredients
I’ve been using this moisturizer since last year; it’s the thickest product I’ve ever tried. My one complaint is how badly it pills. I can only use this at night now. I found myself rubbing my face to get rid of the pilling throughout the day, and to lessen how oily my face was. Three stars still because of how great it is when used at night on top of tret. I wake up with a calm and moisturized Show more
This is the only moisturizer that works for me. I have super dry skin and really sensitive skin but I’ve never broken out with this. In fact it helped me clear up my acne.
