About this deal

Centella Asiatica Extract, Panthenol(10%), Squalane, Butylene Glycol, Water, 1,2-Hexanediol, Niacinamide, Hydrolyzed Jojoba Esters, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer, Hydroxyacetophenone, Tromethamine, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Disodium EDTA, Xanthan Gum, Sodium Hyaluronate, Madecassoside, Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid, Copper Tripeptide-1, Madecassic Acid The Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel has reviewed the safety of panethol and panethoic acid. The Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel is a group responsible for independent review of safety and efficacy of skincare and cosmetic ingredients. Based on the available data , the Expert Panel has concluded that it is safe in its current uses and concentrations. This moisturizer also contains Peptides (copper tripeptide-1 0.05% - 0.10%). Peptides are a very big group of ingredients. They all consist of a different combination of aminoacids. Our skin produces Peptides naturally. Some of them work as natural antibiotics, promote wound-healing and production of collagen. The scientists are still studying how effective the topical application of Peptides is, but it is very likely that they are helpful. Peptides might be able to support skin barrier restoration and even have an anti-aging benefit. At the very least, they certainly help attract water to the skin and support the hydration in this way. Panethol’s main benefit is that it helps to draw water into the skin. Acting as a humectant, panthenol binds to water molecules and holds them in the skin. Hydrated skin is able to function properly and is responsible for dewy, plumped-looking skin. This makes panthenol great for skin types that endure harsh climates or air conditioning and heating as it is able to compensate for some of the transepidermal water loss that occurs in these environments. Transepidermal water loss refers to the loss of moisture that occurs from our skin to the environment. As we age our skin’s ability to minimize water loss reduces, resulting in dehydrated skin. Dehydrated skin is often responsible for that dullness and matte look.

There are a number of benefits to using products that contain panthenol, but there are several misconceptions about it because it’s used in a wide variety of applications. The most common misnomer is that it causes a heavy buildup in hair that may contribute to dandruff and oily hair. However, hair care experts dispute this rumor and say that the elements of panthenol could not cause this problem. Camargo, F, Gaspar, L & Maia Campos, P, 2011. ‘Skin moisturizing effects of panethnol-based formulations’, Journal of Cosmetic Science, vol. 62, is. 4, pp. 361-370.Panthenol is considered to be safe for its indicated uses. Given that panthenol is generally well tolerated for most skin types and rarely causes irritation or sensitivity it is safe for use in most formulations. If you have a wound or irritated skin, panthenol can help. It plays a crucial role in promoting the growth of fibroblasts (the type of cells in the skin that produce skin-strengthening and wound-healing proteins).

This depends on the source. Squalane can be derived from both plants and animals. Most squalane used in skincare comes from plants. Panthenol may have anti-inflammatory benefits to the skin as well. There have been some studies that suggest that it may help reduce the appearance of UV-induced redness and may alleviate the itching associated with dermatitis. What Are The Misconceptions About Panethnol? Niacinamide is a form of Vitamin B-3 that has a range of benefits from preserving skin hydration and even protecting skin from environmental stressors. It also helps gently balance oil production and inflammatory responses, supporting the skin barrier and improving its texture. Please note: the source of squalane is only known if disclosed by the brand. We recommend reaching out to the brand if you have any questions about their squalane. The source of squalane may impact malassezia / fungal acne. This is because olive oil derived squalane can contain impurities such as fatty acids and plant waxes. Sugarcane derived squalane is recommended for anyone with malassezia concerns.Camargo FB Jr, Gaspar LR, Maia Campos PM. Skin moisturizing effects of panthenol-based formulations. J Cosmet Sci. 2011 Jul-Aug;62(4):361-70. PMID: 21982351. Squalane comes from squalene, which occurs naturally within the sebum of our skin. It is one of the oils our skin produces to keep itself hydrated. Squalane is the hydrogenated version of squalene and has a longer shelf life.

In general, it's a fantastic ingredient. It does a great job at hydrating the skin, and it's suitable for those with sensitive skin.

You can see the detailed formula review with the breakdown of all actives in the product and the full ingredient list with estimated concentrations in the tables below.

Cosmetic Ingredient Review, 1987. ‘Final Report on the Safety Assessment of Panthenol and Pantothenic Acid’, Journal of the American College of Toxicology, vol. 6, no.1. It contains 10% Panthenol that helps moisturize, protect and strengthen the skin barrier. This formula also contains Centella Asiatica Extract to soothe the skin, Squalane to soften the skin, providing hydrating and calming effects. Lastly, our superhero Niacinamide (vitamin B3) will work on brightening the skin. Keep an eye on: Look out for the concentration of panthenol in the product, most effective formulations will have around 5% panthenol in their product. What Are Panthenol’s Benefits?This product contains ingredients that could be beneficial, but their concentrations are too low in this formulation: dipotassium glycyrrhizate Irritation risk Panthenol is a compound derived from pantothenic acid, an essential nutrient the body requires for various functions (like converting food into energy). When applied to the skin, it transforms into vitamin B5 and works as a humectant to attract and retain moisture. Just like hyaluronic acid. However, compared to its counterpart, panthenol is also an emollient, which means it works to soften the skin surface, reduce redness, and restore the skin’s barrier function. [1]
