I have no idea what the problem is with it though...could someone enlighten me?

Hmmm, what type of products are you referring to? From what I gather panthenol is used in hair products - shampoo and conditioner - which isn't much of a concern when shaving ;)
FWIW I'm fairly certain none of my shaving products contain it.

As far as I can see there's nothing really harmful about. It's use in aftershave balms makes sense though, due to its emollient properties. Perhaps one of our resident chemists could elaborate.
Here's a link I found that expains a bit more: COSMETICSINFO.ORG - Your source for safety information about cosmetics and personal care products
Thanks Ryan!
