Information
Panthenol, also known as provitamin B5, is a highly regarded ingredient in skincare due to its hydrating, soothing, and cell renewal properties. When applied to the skin, panthenol is converted into pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), an essential nutrient that supports skin vibrance. It is a popular ingredient in various skincare and hair care products for its ability to contribute to skin barrier function and moisture retention.
Where does it come from?
Panthenol is derived from pantothenic acid, which is a water-soluble vitamin found in all living cells and essential for maintaining vibrant skin. It can be naturally sourced from foods like eggs, fish, meat, whole grains, and certain vegetables. It is purified for use in skincare formulations for stability and effectiveness.
Moisturizing: Panthenol is a powerful humectant, meaning it attracts and retains moisture in the skin. This can keep the skin hydrated, soft, and smooth.
Soothing: It has soothing properties that can calm irritated or sensitive skin.
Repair: Panthenol supports the skin’s natural cell renewal processes. It also contributes to strengthening the skin barrier, minimizing water loss and protecting the skin from environmental factors.
Rejuvenating: By contributing to skin hydration and elasticity, panthenol can minimize the appearance of mature skin, contributing to a more youthful complexion.
Improved Skin Texture: Regular use of products containing panthenol can lead to smoother, more resilient skin with better texture and tone.
