This week, we have decided to dedicate our article to a key ingredient: Panthenol, used in particular in our Regenerating Nail & Cuticle Wax.
This ingredient, with its many properties, is familiar even to people who take no interest in cosmetic products, their composition or how they are applied.
Like hyaluronic acid, panthenol occurs naturally in the skin, hair and nails. As a provitamin, panthenol is a precursor of vitamin B5 and can penetrate the skin more easily and nourish it quickly.
Panthenol is a friend to sensitive and weakened skin, thanks to its good skin tolerance and soothing properties. It is also suited to mature skin: it is found in anti-wrinkle and anti-ageing face creams, where it stimulates cell renewal without weighing the skin down.
Widely used in hand and nail creams, panthenol is a building block of skin tissue: it nourishes, strengthens and moisturises, leaving nails strong and skin smooth and soft. Our winter favourite helps painful chapped skin to heal when caused by cold, temperature changes, the use of detergents or hand sanitiser, or the application of semi-permanent nail polish.
Let’s ask the experts at the Belweder Laboratory for a scientific definition of this ingredient:
‘Panthenol is readily absorbed through the barrier of the stratum corneum; it activates cell division in the epidermis, speeds up healing and soothes irritation. It has anti-inflammatory properties, increases skin hydration and makes the skin more supple’.
The formula of our Wax is particularly rich in Panthenol (10%), Vitamin E, Lavender, Jojoba, Sesame and Castor Oils, as well as Shea Butter and Beeswax.
This regenerating treatment is particularly suited to split, brittle, ridged, slow-growing nails and dehydrated cuticles.
We suggest two rituals for using it:
Remember to massage until fully absorbed.
