Others like D and E penetrate into the lower levels of the skin and are used by the cells in the skin.

Vitamin B5 (Panthenol) This vitamin plays a fundamental role in the metabolism of all cells. Panthenol readily absorbs into the hair. It imparts lustre, and provides benefits such as long-lasting moisturisation. It's conditioning effect results in easily manageable hair and it considerably reduces the formation of split ends. It serves to repair damaged hair and can thicken undamaged hair by up to 10%. You will find panthenol in all deep aromatherapy hair conditioners.

Panthenol also has beneficial skin effects. It is moisturising, anti-inflammatory, improves wound-healing times and is effective in preventing sunburn.

Vitamin E is a strong anti-oxidant and is necessary for oxygenation of cells and tissues. Vitamin E is an excellent moisturiser; it improves skin hydration by preventing water loss with a subsequent softening of the skin. Vitamin E greatly reduces the per oxidation reaction and therefore may be an excellent addition for helping to reduce the effects of the aging process of the skin. Vitamin E is effective in reducing irritation and reddening of the skin making it helpful in preventing sunburn.

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine). Many researchers have described skin symptoms including psoriasis and eczema as being directly associated with Vitamin B6 deficiency. This is related to the body's inability to metabolise essential fatty acids. Vitamin B6 is involved in the correction of this metabolism and will act directly of sebaceous glands preventing severe losses of skin lipids. You will find Vitamin B6 an essential ingredient of deep aromatherapy eczema treatment.
