Why it matters
Panthenol is a form of provitamin B5. 'Provitamin' means the body turns it into a vitamin - here, pantothenic acid, which your cells need for normal metabolism. In cosmetics it's added to moisturizers, shampoos, sunscreens, and after-sun products because it helps skin hold onto water and can calm irritation. It's also used orally and in some medical products for wound healing and gut health. Almost nobody needs to worry about this ingredient; it's one of the gentler, more beneficial additives you'll see on a label.
