This product is a concentrated 75% solution of D-Panthenol, also known as Provitamin B5, supplied in a 4 oz (118 mL) bottle by Talsen Chemicals. D-Panthenol is a stable, water-soluble form of vitamin B5 commonly used in cosmetic and personal care formulations. When applied, it converts into pantothenic acid, a component naturally present in skin and hair, supporting moisture retention and barrier function.

The 75% concentration offers a high level of active ingredient, suitable for formulators and DIY enthusiasts looking to incorporate provitamin B5 into creams, lotions, serums, shampoos, conditioners, and leave-on treatments. The liquid form allows for easy blending into both oil and water phases of formulations, depending on the specific recipe requirements. It is compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients and can be added at recommended usage rates, typically between 1% and 5% of the total formulation.

This solution is designed to function as a humectant and emollient, helping to attract and hold moisture in the skin and hair. In skin care products, it may contribute to a smoother feel and improved hydration levels. For hair care, it is often included to help reduce frizz, enhance shine, and improve manageability by coating the hair shaft. The ingredient is generally well-tolerated across various skin types, including sensitive and dry skin, due to its mild nature.

Talsen Chemicals provides this ingredient in a straightforward, no-frills packaging, focusing on purity and concentration. The product is intended for external use only and should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Users should follow standard formulation guidelines and perform patch tests when incorporating into new products. This offering is a practical choice for those seeking a reliable source of provitamin B5 for custom cosmetic creations.
