Help For Winter Skin

La Roche PosayWatching the snowfall outside my window certainly makes spring seem far away. Feeling my dry skin each morning definitely reminds me that we are nowhere near the humid (skin-quenching) weather of July. We’ll get there, just not anytime soon!

In our family, the winter weather adds another element of ‘fun’ because of the dry skin the winds leave behind.  While my son has suffered from eczema all his life, both the winter cold and summer heat creating eczema prone skin, the winter weather causes the most grief with my seven-year-old daughter.  Her skin is almost always dry and her poor hands are so red and extra-dry every night after her bath. So, given the opportunity by La Roche-Posay to try Lipikar Baume AP+, I knew our family was a great candidate!

Lipikar Baume AP+ is described as a lipid-replenishing balm. It’s perfect for sensitive eczema-prone skin because it’s fragrance-free, paraben-free and works especially well on skin that’s prone to itching. You know how sometimes you can put a lotion on sensitive skin and then feel more itchy-scratchy than you were before you put it on? Yes, it combats that feeling!

We’ve been using Lipikar Baume AP+ each night after the kid’s baths, on my son’s eczema prone skin and on my daughter’s red and super-dry winter skin. A little goes a long way, and after applying neither child feels itchy or sore. I noticed that it takes a little longer to absorb than our usual lotion, but that’s because this product is more of a protective balm. I’m willing to wait a few extra minutes for the results Lipikar Baume AP+ brings!

 

Our family is among hundreds of families helped by Lipikar Baume AP+ and I can say that for a fact because I know about the 100 Families program with La Roche-Posay! What is it? Every year, with the support of dermatologists, La Roche-Posay Canada helps 100 Canadian families live a better life with eczema. How? By providing information and advice from dermatologists along with a one-year supply of Lipikar products to fight against dry skin due to eczema. You can learn more about the 100 Families Program here (need link!) and you can also print a coupon for $5 off  La Roche-Posay Lipikar Baume AP+ so you can try it out for your family too!
