Panthenol is a common ingredient that helps hydrate and soothe the skin. It is found naturally in our skin and hair.
There are two forms of panthenol: D and L.
D-panthenol is also known as dexpanthenol. Most cosmetics use dexpanthenol or a mixture of D and L-panthenol.
Panthenol is famous due to its ability to go deeper into the skin's layers. Using this ingredient has numerous pros (and no cons):
Like hyaluronic acid, panthenol is a humectant. Humectants are able to bind and hold large amounts of water to keep skin hydrated.
This ingredient works well for wound healing. It works by increasing tissue in the wound and helps close open wounds.
Once oxidized, panthenol converts to pantothenic acid. Panthothenic acid is found in all living cells.
This ingredient is also referred to as pro-vitamin B5.

Does it help with damage skin barrier? Certainly.
Is it good for balancing out oily and sensitive skin? Definitely.
Is it worth it? Itβs a small bottle that you use up in a week at most and costs around 20EUR. Not for me. I think I rather buy centella essence jumbo bottle and refill it in a spray bottle for the day. Costs way less and is pure in ingredients π€·π»ββοΈ
