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.

Pyunkang Yul Calming Deep Moisture Toner 31 ingredients
This toner is light and layers easily. I personally found it stung and irritated my sensitive skin, so I ended up passing it off to my husband. He has oily skin and said it's a nice toner but it doesn't feel like it does anything. I haven't had much luck with this brand and its products.
It feels nice on the skin and is soothing but doesn’t really do anything.
