Pro-Vitamin B5
Pro-Vitamin B5 (panthenol) is a water-soluble precursor to Vitamin B5 used for its soothing, hydrating and barrier-repairing properties. Panthenol is a humectant: it binds water to the skin to increase its moisture content and also in the cracks, ensuring that no moisture is lost. As a result, it improves skin elasticity, plumpness and smoothness. Panthenol also has anti-inflammatory properties which soothe the skin and prevent irritation.
Benefits:
- Hydrates the skin
- Heals and protects the skin
- Improves the skin barrier and reduces irritation
