D-Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5)

Add to the water phase with mixing until uniform. Suitable for cold-process and heated systems.

• Compatible with most cosmetic ingredients
• Works well with humectants and barrier-support actives
• Suitable for both skin and hair formulations

Panthenol contributes a smooth, conditioned feel and can enhance formulation softness. At higher levels, it may slightly increase viscosity and leave a light film. Sensory outcome is formulation-dependent; bench testing is recommended.

Hydrating serum

• Panthenol: 2–5%
• Humectants (e.g. glycerin, propanediol): 3–6%
• Actives as required
• Preserved aqueous base to 100%

Supports hydration and barrier-focused formulations.

Lotion or cream (emulsion)

• Panthenol: 1–3% (water phase)
• Emollients and emulsifier system as required
• Preserved to finished formula

Improves skin feel and formulation balance.

Hair care system

• Panthenol: 1–3%
• Conditioning agents as required
• Surfactant or emulsion system

Supports conditioning and formulation performance

• Too sticky / heavy feel → reduce level or balance with lighter humectants
• Viscosity increase → adjust thickener system
• Cloudiness → review compatibility and system balance

• Store in a cool, dry place
• Keep container sealed
• Shelf life: 2 years when properly stored
• Refer to MSDS.
