La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Repair Sun Cream SPF50+ PA++++
La Roche-Posay's Cicaplast Repair Sun Cream (시카플라스트 리페어 선크림, 40ml, SPF50+ PA++++) launched via Olive Young Korea on 2026-01-20 at a ₩35,000 list price, discounted to around ₩28,000 with a stacked sale and to a ₩34,000 brand-stated consumer price on other Korean retail listings; the product is also sold on La Roche-Posay's own Korean site, checked 2026-09-04. The formula is built around six declared UV filters (not individually itemized on any listing this session could access) plus Panthenol 5%, Madecassoside, and a Trybioma prebiotic extract complex, with brand-reported clinical results claiming a 1.46x reduction in UV-induced redness/irritation over two weeks and a 1.36x barrier-repair effect within one hour. No retailer or brand storefront outside Korea was found selling a product under this exact "Cicaplast Repair Sun Cream" name — this appears to be a separately-named, cream-format SKU distinct from La Roche-Posay's long-running international "Cicaplast Balm B5 UV" SPF50 line, which is a balm-format product containing Petrolatum and FDA-monograph organic filters.

| Korea vs export | Sold as a separate product/SKU in export markets — see product page. La Roche-Posay's Cicaplast line has long included an SPF product outside Korea — "Cicaplast Balm B5 UV" (marketed in some markets as "Cicaplast Baume B5+ SPF50"), sold in the US (around US$22.99 at Ulta, CVS, Walgreens, Amazon) as a balm-format, multi-purpose SPF50 product whose US ingredient disclosure lists Water, Glycerin, Propanediol, Petrolatum, Butyloctyl Salicylate, Panthenol, Dimethicone, and Shea Butter among its ingredients, using FDA-monograph organic UV filters. Korea's "Cicaplast Repair Sun Cream," launched via Olive Young on 2026-01-20, is a separately-named, cream-format SKU (SPF50+ PA++++, 40ml, ₩35,000 list) built around six declared UV filters (count confirmed via brand press coverage, but not individually named on any listing accessible this session) plus Panthenol 5%, Madecassoside, and a Trybioma prebiotic extract complex. No retailer or brand storefront outside Korea (US, Singapore official sites, Hong Kong resellers checked) was found selling a product under this exact "Repair Sun Cream"/"Repair Sunscreen" name as of 2026-09-04, and Olive Young Korea's own mandatory ingredient disclosure for this specific SKU could not be retrieved — oliveyoung.co.kr repeatedly returned a Cloudflare bot-check page across many attempts in this session, so the two products' exact UV-filter overlap could not be directly confirmed. Given the different product name, different texture/format (cream vs. balm), and no matching international listing found anywhere, this reads as a Korea/APAC-specific new SKU distinct from the long-running global Cicaplast Balm SPF50 line rather than the same formula sold under a new name — but this verdict rests on absence of a matching listing abroad plus a differing sibling formula, not on a direct side-by-side INCI comparison, since Korea's own full ingredient list could not be sourced. |

Is the Korean version of La Roche-Posay's Cicaplast Repair Sun Cream different from what's sold outside Korea?
Likely yes, though this couldn't be confirmed with a direct ingredient-by-ingredient comparison. No retailer or brand site outside Korea was found selling a product under this exact "Cicaplast Repair Sun Cream" name as of 2026-09-04. The closest international relative, "Cicaplast Balm B5 UV" (sold in the US and elsewhere, ~US$22.99), is a differently-named balm-format product containing Petrolatum and FDA-monograph organic UV filters — a different texture and formula category from Korea's cream-format SKU. Olive Young Korea's own full ingredient disclosure for this specific product could not be retrieved (the site's bot-check blocked repeated access attempts this session), so the exact UV filters used in the Korea version remain unconfirmed.
Is La Roche-Posay a Korean brand?
No — La Roche-Posay is a French brand owned by L'Oréal; this page covers the version sold in Korea via Olive Young.
Is it vegan?
No vegan certification mark was found for this product on any retailer listing, brand press coverage, or La Roche-Posay's own Korean site, checked 2026-09-04.
Does it contain petrolatum?
Not confirmed either way — Olive Young Korea's mandatory full ingredient disclosure for this specific product could not be retrieved (the site's bot-check blocked repeated access attempts this session), and no third-party ingredient decoder listing was found for it. For comparison, La Roche-Posay's related international "Cicaplast Balm B5 UV" SPF50 product does list Petrolatum in its US ingredient disclosure, but that is a differently-formulated balm, not this cream, so it can't be used to answer for the Korea SKU.
