D-panthenol – Skin and hair moisture boost
What is D-panthenol?
D-panthenol, also known as provitamin B5, is a common ingredient in both skin and hair care products. It is a provitamin, meaning it is converted into vitamin B5 in the skin and hair. Vitamin B5 plays an important role in cell renewal and helps retain moisture in the skin and hair.
Why is D-panthenol good for the skin?
- Deep hydration: D-panthenol penetrates deeply into the skin and binds moisture, making it ideal for dry and irritated skin.
- Soothes and protects: It has a calming effect on the skin and helps strengthen the skin barrier, which protects against external stressors.
- Accelerates healing: D-panthenol promotes the skin's natural healing process and can be helpful for wounds, eczema and other skin problems.
- Softens and gives radiance: By moisturizing the skin, D-panthenol makes it softer and gives a healthy glow.

- Gives shine: It gives the hair a natural shine and makes it more vibrant.
