DL-Panthenol, also known as Pro-Vitamin B5, is a colorless to pale yellow liquid that is well loved in both skin and hair care. Once applied, it converts into Vitamin B5, which helps deeply moisturize and soften skin and hair. This makes it a popular choice for products meant to comfort dry, tired-looking skin or dull, damaged hair.

Beyond moisture, this ingredient is also known for its calming effect on redness and irritation, which is why it often appears in after-sun care and baby products. In hair care, it adds shine and smoothness to strands. It blends easily into most formulas and has a shelf life of 24 months when kept away from heat and direct sunlight.
