How does a shower gel with D-panthenol differ from an ordinary shower gel? — Shower gel with D-panthenol, 250 ml "AromaSaules"

Most shower gels solve one task — cleansing. A gel with D-panthenol combines cleansing with an additional action on the skin barrier — the natural protective layer that reduces water loss and keeps the skin soft.

D-panthenol (provitamin B5) helps retain moisture in the upper layers of the skin after application and takes part in restoring the skin barrier. According to the manufacturer's description, the gel increases the firmness and elasticity of the skin.

In practice this means the following: if, after your usual gel or soap, the skin feels “over-dried” and immediately needs cream, a gel with panthenol can soften this effect.

This kind of product is especially relevant in situations when the skin is already under strain: in the heating season (dry air increases moisture loss), after a long time in the sun, with a tendency to irritation or dehydration.
