Pro-Vitamins Role In Cosmetic Products

One of the most popular words on the cosmetic and toiletries market today is Pro-vitamins. It is very easy to pronounce and sounds healthy. Pro-retinol or Pro-retinol-A sounds even better. Retinol is actually a chemical name for vitamin A. Which means that Pro-retinol-A is probably Pro-vitamin A that is beta-carotene natural colorant found in many roots of carrots. Manufacturers and beauticians might probably tell you that pro-vitamins will nourish the skin and so on.. The truth is, they add little to the quality of the products and have no discernible biological effect unless if you eat them as part of balance diet. Pro-vitamins are substaces in our diet that are absorbed by the body and converted into vitamins.
