Panthenol is a common ingredient that helps hydrate and soothe the skin. It can be found naturally in our skin and hair.

This ingredient is also referred to as pro-vitamin B5 or dexpanthenol in dermatology.

Once oxidized, panthenol converts to pantothenic acid. Panthothenic acid is found in all living cells.
