Collection: Vitamin E

Vitamin E is the general name for a family of oil-soluble antioxidants. The types of vitamin E usually used in skincare ingredients are tocopheryl acetate and tocopherol.

Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant and often sought after for its cell restoration abilities. This vitamin helps heal acne scars and burns, as well as damage caused by UV-rays and pollution. Additionally, vitamin E is hydrating and a natural anti-inflammatory that calms irritated skin.

Vitamin E can be beneficial for all skin types, however, it is ideal for dry skin since it provides ample moisture and helps the skin retain water. Generally, the concentration of vitamin E in most moisturizers, toners, etc. is just fine for oily skin types. That being said, a heavy oil-based vitamin E product is not ideal for oily or acne-prone skin, as it can clog pores and make acne worse.
