La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Balm B5+ - 5% Panthenol
Published on 09/24/2026 at 06:07 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Balm B5+ is a 1.35-fl-oz fragrance-free skin barrier balm with 5% panthenol, shea butter, glycerin, and madecassoside. The current US formula also includes Tribioma, a prebiotic complex highlighted by the brand for barrier support.
Formula And Skin Uses
The balm is designed for dry, cracked, chapped, and chafed skin on the face and body. La Roche-Posay lists it for adults, children, and babies 1 week and up, and identifies the formula as suitable for post-procedure use.
In the United States, dimethicone at 1% is the active ingredient. The formula is built around panthenol, shea butter, glycerin, madecassoside, zinc, manganese, and copper gluconate, with no fragrance listed for the 1.35-fl-oz cream.
Size And Current Price
The US tube contains 1.35 fl oz, also listed as 40 milliliters. Ulta lists the 1.3-oz size at $20.99, while Target lists the 1.35-oz tube at $15.79, or $11.70 per fluid ounce, as of 09/23/2026.
The price spread reflects different retailers and promotions rather than a different treatment category. The closest comparison within the line is the 100-milliliter tube, while the 40-milliliter tube keeps the same named B5+ formula in a smaller format.
What Sets B5+ Apart
Compared with the earlier Baume B5 naming, the current US B5+ formula adds Tribioma to the ingredient story while retaining 5% panthenol and madecassoside. The US formula also identifies 1% dimethicone as its active skin protectant.
The product sits between a moisturizer and a protective balm. Its cataloged use covers dry irritation, chafing, cracked areas, and diaper rash, giving it a broader brief than a face-only cream but a narrower role than a sunscreen or medicated acne treatment.
Manufacturer And Brand Ownership
La Roche-Posay is part of L'Oréal's Dermatological Beauty division, not Beiersdorf. L'Oréal's brand page identifies La Roche-Posay within that division, while the US consumer site presents Cicaplast Balm B5+ for American shoppers.

Best Fit And Limits
Cicaplast Balm B5+ fits users seeking a fragrance-free face-and-body balm for dry, irritated, cracked, or chafed skin. The 1.35-fl-oz tube provides the same named formula as the larger size, while the smaller package is easier to place in a travel or personal-care kit.
Its 1% dimethicone active ingredient and 5% panthenol distinguish it from a basic body lotion. It does not replace a sunscreen, acne treatment, or prescription product, and its cataloged role is topical barrier protection rather than treatment of a diagnosed skin disease.
