Benefits Of Vitamin E For Skin
An icon since the 70s, there’s a reason our Vitamin E range is so beloved. It’s a hydration hero, packed full of skin-loving ingredients, that’s suitable for every skin type, tone and texture.
And the skin benefits of our Vitamin E range stand out. Enriched with hyaluronic acid and vitamin E, it doesn’t just replenish skin’s moisture, it restores vital hydration, leaving it feeling smoother and plump with moisture.
What is Vitamin E?
There’s a reason we have an entire range dedicated to it. We use it in every product in our Vitamin E range, which helps to maintain and protect the skin’s natural moisture barrier. It also helps to protect against daily environmental aggressors too and it offers long-lasting moisture, keeping skin hydrated every step of your routine.
Why is Vitamin E good for skin?
Vitamin E is a naturally occurring component in healthy skin, offering potent antioxidant benefits which help your skin prevent pollutants and environmental stressors from weakening your skin. This also provides potent anti-ageing benefits for your skin, as well as soothing it.
5 Vitamin E Benefits for Skin
When it comes to caring for your complexion, vitamin E for skin is one of nature’s most trusted allies. Loved for its nourishing and protective qualities, vitamin E for skin works to strengthen the natural barrier, helping it stay soft, smooth and hydrated throughout the day.
Skin Barrier Support
Vitamin E supports the skin barrier repair, reducing water loss and helping it stay moisturised. This makes it especially beneficial for dry or dehydrated skin, leaving it feeling soft and comfortable.
Antioxidant Protection
One of the most powerful benefits of vitamin E for skin is its ability to help neutralise free radicals from pollution and UV exposure. By protecting against these everyday stressors, vitamin E helps your skin look healthier, brighter and more radiant, making it a perfect choice for those looking at pollution protection skincare.
Smoother, Youthful-Looking Skin
By supporting your skin’s defences against oxidative stress, vitamin E can help reduce the appearance of fine lines, dullness and other early signs of ageing — giving skin a smoother, more revitalised look.
Reduce redness
Vitamin E is known for its calming touch. It can help ease redness, reduce irritation and support skin recovery, making it a comforting choice as skincare for sensitive skin.
Vitamin E and breakouts or acne
Some research has shown that people who experience frequent breakouts often have a deficiency of vitamin E in their skin. While the link between vitamin E levels and breakouts isn’t fully understood yet, researchers suspect that reduced vitamin E levels can lead to increased inflammation in the body. This paired with the antioxidant properties of vitamin E make it a good option for skincare for anyone who is prone to breakouts.
Layering Vitamin E
Using Vitamin E and Vitamin C together
Vitamin C and Vitamin E used together create a powerful approach to holistic skincare. While vitamin E is oil soluble, meaning it can penetrate the skin deeper, vitamin C is water soluble, meaning it works best at the surface of your skin. Using them together creates a powerful antioxidant and skin health combination which can help the skin prevent environmental and pollutant impacts, improve skin tone, improve the appearance of dark spots and brighten a duller complexion. Definitely a powerful combination!
Using Vitamin E and Hyaluronic Acid together
Using vitamin E and hyaluronic acid together is a simple way to give your skin lasting hydration and protection. Hyaluronic acid draws water into the skin, leaving it feeling plump and refreshed, while vitamin E helps strengthen the skin’s barrier and lock in that moisture. At the same time, vitamin E provides antioxidant protection against everyday stressors like pollution, helping your complexion stay soft, smooth and radiant. This pairing is gentle enough for daily use and makes an ideal choice for anyone looking to keep their skin nourished and healthy.
