Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the difference between D-Panthenol and DL-Panthenol?
D-Panthenol is the biologically active form that the body can use. DL-Panthenol is a racemic mixture (50% D, 50% L), and the L-form is inactive. For cosmetic and pharmaceutical efficacy, always use D-Panthenol.
Yes, D-Panthenol is highly soluble in water and can be used in clear serums, toners, and shampoos without affecting clarity.
Can it be used in clear formulations?
D-Panthenol is a precursor to Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5), which is essential for coenzyme A. This coenzyme plays a critical role in fibroblast proliferation and epithelialization, which are key processes in skin regeneration and wound repair.
How does it help in wound healing?
D-Panthenol is known for its anti-inflammatory and soothing properties and is generally very well-tolerated, even by sensitive skin. It is considered non-irritating and non-sensitizing.
Is there a risk of irritation with D-Panthenol?
Absolutely. Its humectant properties help hair retain moisture, reducing dryness and frizz. Its ability to improve hair's elasticity also makes it less prone to breakage and flyaways.
