Vitamin B5 from Cravter American lotion

D,L-Panthenol, also known as Pro-Vitamin B5, is a stable racemic mixture of D-Panthenol and L-Panthenol. The human body easily absorbs DL-Panthenol through the skin and quickly converts D-Panthenol into pantothenic acid (Vitamin B5), a natural component of healthy hair and a substance present in all living cells. When it comes to moisturizing properties—improving hydration, reducing water loss, and maintaining skin elasticity and softness—this racemic mixture is 100% active. When applied to the epidermis (wound healing), only D-Panthenol is converted into Vitamin B5, not L-Panthenol, so D,L-Panthenol has half the physiological activity of D-Panthenol alone. Studies have shown that D-Panthenol promotes epithelial stimulation and granulation, relieves itching, and has anti-inflammatory effects. When used in formulations over three to four weeks, it has the ability to improve the appearance of the skin, including dryness, roughness, flaking, itching, and redness. This raw material is cosmetic and intended for external use only in cosmetic formulations. End: 2027/1M
