What is Vitamin E?
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble compound that has been used in dermatology for more than fivedecades. Naturally occurring vitamin E encompasses eight chemical forms. The body utilizes α-tocopherol, which is formulated into a variety of skincare products in concentrations of 1 to 5percent.
Vitamin E for skin has numerous benefits. Studies have proven that this potent antioxidant:
- Hydrates the outer skin layer and improves water-binding capacity
- Protects skin against UV damage
- Improves wound healing
- Strengthens the skin barrier function
- Delivers up to 16 hours of moisture
- Soothes skin inflammation and redness from sun exposure and pollutants
- Softens the appearance of fine lines and photo-aging
- Reduces hyperpigmentation
Helps with these environmental & lifestyle factors:
Vitamin E reduces the effects of the following lifestyle and environmental factors on your skin.
High UV Exposure
Keeps your skin healthy even if you spend a lot of time in the sun. The sun's heat dries out areas of unprotected skin and ultraviolet (UV) radiation can cause burning and photoaging.
Low Humidity Level
Keeps your skin hydrated and supple by locking in moisture even if you live in a region with dry air. Air that lacks humidity tends to dry skin out and cause itching, flaking or cracking of the skin.
Pollution Protection
Helps fight the effects of pollution on your skin. Polluted air contains small nanoparticles which cause premature aging. Clinical studies show that people with low pollution exposure levels have brighter, healthier, more radiant looking skin.
Dry skin
Vitamin E delivers up to 16 hours of moisture and is a boon for dry skin.
Normal skin
Vitamin E softens the appearance of fine lines and photo-aging.
Vitamin E is beneficial for people in the following age ranges.
AGES 20 AND BELOW
It refines the skin, making it smoother, creating a more even skin tone, a brighter appearance, and gives you radiant skin from within.
AGES 21 - 33
It is a perfect fit to address the primary skin care concerns for people in their 20s and early 30s. Make it a part of your regular skin care routine for healthy, beautiful skin.
AGES 34 - 46
This is a great time to make it a part of your skincare routine as you start thinking about incorporating more ingredients with anti-aging benefits.
AGES 47 - 64
It is a great bet for consistent, everyday incorporation in your skincare routine as it not only will tighten up your anti-aging regimen but also help you achieve firmer, more youthful skin.
AGES 65 AND ABOVE
As skin matures, it tends to lose hydration and feel dry. This helps hydrate and plump the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Vitamin E works well with these other ingredients
Studies have found that Vitamin E offers better photoprotection against free radical damage when combined with Vitamin C and Ferulic Acid and is less prone to oxidation. It also pairs well with ingredients like resveratrol, vitamin B, peptides, and green tea extract.
