A: Hello there! The Cicaplast B5 OTC Soothing Cream is exactly the same formula as our standard 1.35 ounce Cicaplast Balm B5, providing a multi-purpose barrier with 5% Panthenol and Madecassoside. The primary difference is simply the product packaging and the labeling required for its over-the-counter therapeutic claims, allowing for more specific uses like skin protection and relief. A helpful tip for achieve the best results with this soothing cream is to apply a very small, pea-sized amount to clean, dry skin on the affected areas and gently massage until absorbed. Because this formula is highly concentrated and provides deep, long-wear hydration, it works best when used on the most irritated areas to provide a more visible improvement in your skin's texture and comfort.
