What Is Pentavitin, Exactly?

Pentavitinis a 100% natural, plant-derived carbohydrate complex, with its INCI name listed as Saccharide Isomerate. It is produced through the isomerization of D-glucose from plant sources, resulting in a blend of sugars—primarily glucose and fructose—that is structurally identical to the carbohydrates found in the skin’ s Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF). The NMF is the skin’ s built-in hydration system, composed of water-soluble compounds that attract and retain moisture in the outermost layer of the skin. However, the NMF is easily washed away with water, soap, or harsh cleansers, leading to dryness, tightness, and flakiness—a problem Pentavitin is specifically designed to solve.

Key Features and Advantages of Pentavitin

• 72-Hour Long-Lasting Hydration

As proven in multiple clinical studies, Pentavitin provides hydration that lasts up to 72 hours after a single application. This is a significant improvement over most humectants, which typically last 4-8 hours. Its ability to bind covalently to keratin means it stays on the skin even through washing, making it ideal for people with busy lifestyles, those who wash their hands frequently, or those living in dry climates where moisture loss is accelerated.

• Skin-Identical and Gentle for All Skin Types

Pentavitin‘ s structure is identical to the carbohydrates in the skin’ s NMF, making it hypoallergenic and well-tolerated by all skin types—including sensitive, irritated, or acne-prone skin. It does not clog pores, cause greasiness, or trigger irritation, even in high concentrations. In fact, its calming properties help alleviate redness and discomfort in Sensitive Skin, making it suitable for use in products targeted at people with eczema, rosacea, or post-inflammatory redness.

• 100% Natural, Preservative-Free, and Certified Sustainable

Pentavitinis derived entirely from plant sources, making it a natural alternative to synthetic moisturizers. It is preservative-free, with its stability maintained by citric acid and sodium citrate rather than harsh preservatives. Additionally, Pentavitin is certified by Ecocert, Cosmos, and Natrue conFirming its sustainability and environmental friendliness. Its production process is also low-impact, using renewable plant sources and minimal energy.

• Strengthens the Skin Barrier

Unlike many moisturizers that only provide surface hydration, Pentavitin actively strengthens the skin’ s barrier function by reducing TEWL and supporting the production of lipids in the stratum corneum. A strong skin barrier is essential for protecting the skin from environmental aggressors like pollution, UV rays, and harsh weather, as well as preventing moisture loss. The 2023 Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology study confirmed that Pentavitin reduces TEWL by 28%, while the DSM-Firmenich 2022 study showed it rapidly restores the skin barrier even after damage from cleansing or harsh products.

Pentavitin’s Applications in the Cosmetics Industry

• Facial Skincare

Moisturizers and day creams: Recommended concentration of 2-5% to deliver long-lasting hydration and barrier support. These products are ideal for dry, normal, or sensitive skin types, providing all-day moisture without greasiness.

Serums and ampoules: Concentration of 3-5% for targeted deep hydration. Pentavitin’ s lightweight texture makes it suitable for serums, which penetrate quickly into the skin to address severe dehydration, dullness, or tightness.

Cleansers: Concentration of 1-3% to prevent moisture loss during cleansing.

Eye creams: Concentration of 2-3% to hydrate the delicate eye area, which is prone to dryness and fine lines. Pentavitin’ s gentle, skin-identical formula is safe for use around the eyes, reducing the appearance of dry, crepey skin.

Sensitive skin products: Concentration of 2-4% to soothe irritation and hydrate without triggering reactions. Pentavitin’ s calming properties make it ideal for products designed for sensitive, reactive, or post-procedure skin.

• Body Care

Body lotions and creams: Concentration of 2-5% to provide 24-hour hydration for the entire body. These products are particularly effective for people with dry, rough skin, reducing flakiness and improving skin texture.

Hand creams: Concentration of 3-5% to combat dryness from frequent hand washing, sanitizing, or exposure to water and chemicals. Pentavitin’ s wash-resistant formula ensures that the hands remain hydrated even after multiple washes, reducing chapping and cracking.

Shower gels and body washes: Concentration of 1-3% to hydrate while cleansing. Unlike traditional body washes that strip the skin of moisture, those containing Pentavitin leave the skin feeling soft and supple, not tight or dry.

• Hair Care

Shampoos: Concentration of 1-3% to hydrate the scalp and hair while cleansing. Pentavitin reduces scalp dryness and itchiness, and helps retain moisture in the hair shaft, preventing frizz and breakage.

Conditioners and hair masks: Concentration of 2-5% to deeply hydrate and nourish dry, damaged hair. It smooths the hair cuticle, reducing frizz and improving shine, while also soothing a dry scalp.

Leave-in conditioners and serums: Concentration of 2-4% to provide long-lasting hydration for curly, coily, or dry hair. Pentavitin’ s lightweight formula does not weigh hair down, making it suitable for all hair types.

• Other Cosmetic Products

Soap bars: Concentration of 1-3% to maintain skin hydration even in high-pH soap formulations. Traditional soap bars often dry out the skin, but those with Pentavitin provide 24-hour moisture boost and lock in hydration.

Sunscreens: Concentration of 2-3% to add hydration to sunscreen formulations, which can sometimes be drying. Pentavitin’ s barrier-strengthening properties also help protect the skin from UV-induced dryness and damage.

Makeup: Concentration of 1-2% in foundations, tinted moisturizers, and lip balms to provide hydration while delivering color or coverage. Pentavitin prevents makeup from looking cakey or drying out the skin, creating a smooth, dewy finish.
