D-Panthenol, a nutrient from the B vitamin family, helps manage the effects of oxidative stress on the skin by strengthening the skin's outer barrier, fighting environmental toxins, and promoting hydration.
D-Panthenol is a nutrient from the B vitamin family that helps manage the negative results that oxidative stress can have on our skin, such as redness, fine lines, skin roughness and more. Pantothenic acid, also known as vitamin B5, works to support skin in numerous ways, first by maintaining the strength of the skin’s outer barrier, then by infusing skin cells with nutrients that go to work to fight the environmental toxins that are also stressors to our skin.
D-Panthenol helps nourish and add vital moisture to skin, first by sealing in hydration by boosting the skin barrier, but also by helping to rejuvenate and revitalize skin cells, helping to defy the aging process.
One of the most important ways D-Panthenol is believed to be effective as a skin-friendly nutrient is its ability to manage the healthy levels of fibroblasts – the cells that are most prolific in our skin’s connective tissue – which in turn boosts collagen and elastin, the proteins that help keep skin luminous, elastic and even toned.
This form of vitamin B5 easily penetrates the skin, allowing it to promote recovery and revitalization of skin cells.
Our Kanapa skincare philosophy is all about uncompromising quality which is why we have made D-Panthenol a key ingredient across the range of dermatologically tested products.
In addition to skin care, D-Panthenol is often used in hair care products because its humectant properties help increase elasticity while boosting the moisture content to keep strands looking healthy and radiant with deep shine.
Because D-Panthenol is derived from pantothenic acid (known as vitamin B5), which is often extracted from honey, it is a sustainable, environmentally friendly product.
