Ingredient

Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5)

A hydrating, barrier-supportive ingredient that soothes and calms irritated or reactive skin.

  • All skin types
  • Sensitive
  • Dry

What it does

Panthenol draws in and holds moisture while supporting the skin's barrier, making it a common calming ingredient in creams and a useful pairing alongside stronger actives like retinoids and acids.

How it works

Once absorbed, panthenol converts to pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), which supports the skin's natural moisture-retention and repair processes.

Take care

Low-irritation profile and generally suitable for reactive skin; still patch test on first use and discontinue on irritation.
