What is Vitamin E?

Thanks to its healing, soothing and nourishing benefits, Vitamin E has become one of the most popular ingredients for maintaining healthy skin.

But what exactly is Vitamin E?

You’ll find Vitamin E in everything from skin moisturisers and face masks to whole-foods, dietary supplements, and everything in between.

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin that works as an antioxidant to maintain the health and condition of your skin. It protects skin by fighting off free radicals and preventing oxidative damage to leave you with soothed, nourished and hydrated skin.

There are eight different forms of Vitamin E. Tocopheryl acetate and tocopherol are the most common variants found in everyday skincare products. So, if you see these terms show up on an ingredients list, you can rest assured that they mean ‘Vitamin E’.

Making Vitamin E part of your daily routine – whether it’s through your diet or skincare routine – means you’ll get all the antioxidant benefits. In fact, our Vitamin E baseplates only take 15mins for the Vitamin E to be released into the skin. It also continues to benefit the skin for up to 72 hours.*
