Panthenol and citric acid: work well together

Work well together

Use them in the same routine by applying panthenol after citric acid, because panthenol helps calm any irritation caused by the acid. Panthenol soothes the skin and helps it recover, reducing the redness that citric acid might cause. If your skin feels sensitive, you can apply them on alternate nights or use a gentler acid product.
