Panthenol (Provitamin B5)
Panthenol moisturizes, repairs sensitive or damaged skin, relieves redness, dryness and itching, and strengthens the skin barrier.
Teaching notes:
• Skin barrier: protective layer of the skin that retains water and blocks aggressions.
• Sensitive skin: skin that reacts to external aggressions, that reddens or itches easily.
• Dryness and itching: lack of water leading to discomfort and irritation.
