NOW CLOSED

We are looking for 120 UK Mumsnetters who have a child aged 3 months - 6 years who suffers with dry, itchy, or eczema-prone skin to test out La Roche-Posay’s LIPIKAR AP+ 3 step skincare routine. Selected testers will be sent LIPIKAR Syndet AP+ hair & body wash, LIPIKAR Balm AP+ soothing body balm, and LIPIKAR Stick AP+ on-the-go itch relief for their children to test over a month and see if it helps improve their dry, itchy or eczema-prone skin.

Here’s what La Roche-Posay have to say: “We are excited for Mumsnetters to try our LIPIKAR AP+ range, soothing skincare for dry, itchy skin, also suitable for eczema. We know one of the struggles of children suffering from dry, itchy skin is having a good night's sleep, which affects the whole family. We want parents and their little ones to have a restful night with the La Roche-Posay LIPIKAR AP+ skincare routine. Use this soothing skincare routine on your child before bedtime for up to 2 x less scratching for longer nights... and better days. We hope you enjoy the products!”

Here’s more info on the products to be tested below:

LIPIKAR Syndet AP+ hair & body wash
A gentle cream wash with Shea Butter and Glycerin to help protect your child’s skin from the drying effects of water and lock in moisture from the bath or shower. Provides 24h hydration and 24h itch protection. Suitable for new-borns. Use every evening as part of your child bath time routine. Apply to wet skin and rinse after use.

LIPIKAR Balm AP+ soothing body balm
The formula enriched with Shea Butter immediately soothes and hydrates your little one’s dry skin. Used after the LIPIKAR Syndet AP+ body wash, this bath time routine is clinically proven to help your child have a more restful night’s sleep by providing 2 x less scratching at night for children who suffer from dry, itchy skin. Suitable for new-borns. Use every evening after the bath or shower. Can be applied to face and body, and used as often as required throughout the day.

LIPIKAR Stick AP+ on-the-go itch relief
Instantly relieves scratching urges and calms skin. Easy to use pocket-stick format that can be used anytime, anywhere to soothe dry skin flare-ups. Perfect to keep in your handbag or for your child to take to school or nursery. Suitable for babies from 3 months. Use on dry and/or itchy patches or flare-ups as often as needed. Try to encourage your child to use the LIPIKAR Stick rather than their nails to soothe the urge to scratch to avoid further damage to the skin.

Please sign up here if you are interested in taking part.

All testers will be required to use the hair & body wash and soothing body balm daily and the on-the-go itch relief stick when needed for dry skin flare-ups for a month with their child. We will then ask testers to leave their feedback for each of the three products in the LIPIKAR AP+ 3 step skincare routine on a thread on Mumsnet and by filling out a short survey. Everyone that leaves feedback as required will be entered into a prize draw to win a £300 voucher of their choice (from a list).

Thanks and good luck

Have received mine and have started using it, I will have to see but I think I can already see an improvement!

We have started using our kit already and the most impressive one is the on-the-go stick! So useful! Looking forward to seeing the amazing results I've read about and now have a chance to experience ourselves.

Could someone from the company let me know what would be best to use on a 2.5 years olds face and eye area! Desperate after another flair up...

I got mine today. Absolutely fab products.

I've never tried any of their range before but Dd really loved it and her skin felt so soft after. She usually hates getting creams on but not tonight!

We have been using the wash, lotion and stick (great idea) for about a week now on my DS (2.5). I must say I'm very impressed. I can already see an improvement in his itching and the dry patches. He is starting to get that shiny smooth baby skin on his cheeks that he never had! His overall scratching at night is also considerably less. The look and feel of the products are also good, the lotion is thick and creamy without being oily and the stick is great in the bag when we're out. I love it!

I loved the lotion but it hasn't worked for DS. Flare up areas threaten to flare up again (red and dry) after using it... we've had to go back to the old cream Sad

I have been using the LA ROCHE-POSAY set for 9 days. The pump dispensers are great and generous size at 400ml. I like that the cream wash is for hair and body. Very moisturising without over loading and left skin very softened, lathered well and very light and clean. Skin left so hydrated after the wash. The replenishment balm very soothing and hydrateing without being greasy or oily. Although a thicker texture it massaged in well and skin seemed to absorb the balm leaving a smoothing softness after application.

I have find myself using the anti irritation stick alot because its so handy and was suprised that it doese calm the itching and has made it less intense especially on elbows.

Very good on dry/sensitive skin so far and hope to see an improvement on dry patches with continued use. I am so pleased that these are not heavily scented or smelling of oats and very unisex in look and fragrance. Smile

I have been using the products for nearly one month now on my 18 month old and I have found them really fantastic!
The bottles of wash and cream are great value for money and even though I have been using the wash every night and the cream sometimes twice a day there is still so much left, great value for money!
I like that the wash can be used as a shampoo and treats cradle cap. I have found this effective for my babies cradle cap.
I like the pump dispenser as it dispenses a small amount and is easy to use.

The stick is absolutely fantastic and by far my favourite bit. I will absolutely be continuing to purchase this on an ongoing basis. It is small and compact and I take it with me in the change bag. I find it works immediately and relieves his itching.
Highly recommend.
