We all love a skincare superhero, don't we? So, when an exciting new breakthrough emerges, the eagerness to give it a shot is undeniable. Enter PENTAVITIN® - the latest sensation in hydration. But what exactly is PENTAVITIN®? What's the science fueling its magic? And why should it be a sought-after ingredient in our skincare and self tanning products? Let's delve into the details.
So, what is PENTAVITIN® exactly?
PENTAVITIN® (otherwise known as Saccharide Isomerate) is a 100% naturally derived plant extract that’s bursting with hydrating properties, and gives improved skin protection against dehydration and sensitivity with every use. Its secret weapon? It binds deep within the outer layers of skin, meaning hydration continues long after application. And, unlike Hyaluronic Acid, it can’t be washed away.
5 Skin-loving reasons to incorporate PENTAVITIN® into your skincare:
There are compelling reasons why beauty editors are featuring PENTAVITIN® in their pages and personal skincare routines. Here's why you should consider joining them:
- It boosts your skin’s natural moisturisers for supple, dewy-fresh skin
- Hydration is instant and lasts for up to 72 hours!
- It keeps skin strong by improving and maintaining the skin’s barrier, protecting it against the damaging effects of environmental factors like pollution, cold weather, and heat
- It can’t be washed away, meaning it keeps working even after you have rinsed off your tanning developer after 8 hours! It can only be removed through the natural shedding of dead skin cells.
- It relieves itchy, flaky, sensitive skin, helping it to feel soft and smooth and works on improving our skins natural microbiome over time.
How does PENTAVITIN® work?
Want to know a little more about the science behind the magic? Here’s how it works.
- It’s a fraction of the size of most other hydrating ingredients, meaning it can penetrate deep into outer layers of skin
- It mimics the natural hydration process, boosting the skin’s moisture retention capabilities
- Its structure allows it to bind to the outer layers of skin, giving it instant and long-lasting hydration abilities
The secret to resolving dry skin involves not only having enough moisture, but also keeping that moisture where it’s needed. Unlike other ingredients, PENTAVITIN® connects perfectly with the skin’s surface layers and doesn’t easily wash off, locking in moisture like a magnet. It also strengthens the skin’s natural defenses and preventing further dehydration.
