La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ Gentle Foaming Cleansing Oil — Fragrance-Free Oil-to-Foam Cleanser for Face & Body, 24H Hydration

La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ Gentle Foaming Cleansing Oil is a fragrance-free oil-to-foam cleanser designed to gently wash and hydrate dry, sensitive skin on the face and body while delivering up to 24 hours of moisture.

This lightweight cleansing oil transforms into a soft foam to remove dirt and impurities without stripping natural oils. Formulated with niacinamide (vitamin B3), shea butter and prebiotic thermal water, it targets dryness and soothes sensitive skin immediately in the shower. The product is fragrance-free, soap-free, dermatologist-tested and accepted by the National Eczema Association, and it comes in an eco-friendlier refill pouch that reduces plastic waste.

How does this cleansing oil clean without drying my skin?

The oil-to-foam texture captures sebum and debris, then rinses away while leaving a protective lipid film. Ingredients like shea butter replenish moisture and niacinamide supports the skin barrier, limiting the dehydrating effects of water and surfactants. The formula avoids harsh soaps and fragrances to reduce irritation risk.

• Oil-to-foam action removes dirt but preserves natural oils
• Shea butter provides immediate emollient replenishment
• Niacinamide helps maintain barrier function
• Soap-free and fragrance-free for lower irritation potential

Can I use this on both face and body, including on babies?

Yes — this gentle cleanser is formulated for the face and body and is suitable for dry to extra-dry, sensitive skin across age groups. It’s been tested for tolerance and accepted by the National Eczema Association, and the label indicates safe use on infants from two weeks old when applied to intact skin. For compromised or open skin, consult a healthcare professional before use.

• Approved for face and full-body cleansing
• Suitable for babies from two weeks on intact skin
• Accepted by the National Eczema Association
• Recommended to avoid broken skin or consult a professional

What kind of hydration can I expect and how long does it last?

The formula delivers immediate soothing and helps retain moisture, with clinical feedback showing high percentages of users reporting gentleness, soothing effect and improved hydration over a study period. While individual needs vary, the product is designed to provide up to 24-hour hydration after use, supporting comfort between showers.

• Instant soothing on contact in the shower
• Clinically reported improvement in hydration and comfort
• Designed to help skin hold moisture up to 24 hours
• Supports reduced tightness and roughness after cleansing

How does the refill pouch reduce environmental impact and how do I use it?

The refill pouch contains the same cleansing formula while using significantly less plastic than the standard 400 ml bottle, lowering single-use plastic waste. Refilling is simple: remove the pump from your original bottle, pour the pouch contents into the empty bottle, and the original bottle can be refilled multiple times.

• Refill pouch uses approximately 73% less plastic than the 400 ml bottle
• Twist off the pump to pour into the original bottle
• Original bottle designed to be refilled up to three times
• Same gentle formula as the standard bottle format

Who is this for? If you have dry, sensitive or eczema-prone skin—or you care for infants with delicate skin—this La Roche-Posay Lipikar AP+ cleansing oil offers a low-irritant, hydrating wash suitable for daily use on face and body. It’s also a practical option for households that prefer refillable packaging and want a fragrance-free, dermatologist-tested cleanser that soothes and protects the skin barrier during and after cleansing.
