The Vitamin B5 10% Moisturizer is a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer formulated specifically for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin. Vitamin B5 (Panthenol) at 10% is a clinically supported soothing and barrier-supporting concentration - it calms inflammation around active breakouts, accelerates barrier recovery, and adds hydration without the heaviness of ceramide-rich creams. The result is comfortable, balanced skin that does not feel weighed down.
This is the recommended moisturizer pair for the Salicylic Acid 2% Face Serum - it offsets the dryness that SA can cause while supporting the acne treatment. The formula also includes Snail Mucin (anti-inflammatory and recovery support), Centella Asiatica (calming for stressed skin), and a trace of Salicylic Acid for gentle anti-acne support. For oily-but-dehydrated skin in Pakistan's humid climate, this is the right finishing step. Explore the full face moisturizer range.

Best For: Daily moisturizing on oily skin, post-Salicylic Acid hydration, calming irritated skin, lightweight moisture for acne-prone routines
Use If: You have oily or combination skin that needs hydration without heaviness, you use Salicylic Acid or other actives that dry the skin, or you find ceramide-rich moisturizers too rich for your skin type
Go Slow If: Never - well-tolerated by all skin types
Avoid If: Very dry or severely barrier-compromised skin needs the richer Ceramides and HA Moisturizer instead.
Age: 16 years and above
Pregnancy / Lactation: Safe.
pH Level: 5.0 to 6.0
Free From: Fragrance, Paraben, SLS, Alcohol
Steps:1 - Cleanse with the Salicylic Acid 2% Gel Cleanser (oily/acne-prone) or appropriate cleanser.
2 - If using a treatment serum, apply it first. Most common pairings: Salicylic Acid 2% Serum (acne, night), Niacinamide 10% Serum (pores, AM or PM).
3 - Allow the serum 30 seconds to absorb.
4 - Take a pea-sized amount of Vitamin B5 10% Moisturizer onto fingertips.
5 - Gently spread across the face and neck. The lightweight texture absorbs quickly without residue.
6 - In the morning, finish with the SPF 50 Sunscreen.
When to Use: Morning and evening, every day.
Tip: If you have oily skin and feel like your acne products are drying you out, this moisturizer is the right pair. Oily skin still needs daily moisturizing - skipping it triggers more oil production, not less, and worsens breakouts over time.
