Vitamin E is a fat soluble vitamin. The antioxidant properties of the Vitamin E molecule are vital to skin health because they help it fight off free radicals. Free radicals are in the oxygen that surrounds us and damage the connective tissue of the dermis, contributing to skin aging. Vitamin E molecules have the ability to bind to free radicals, neutralizing them and therefore preventing them from deteriorating the skin.

Vitamin E is often confused with vitamin D. Although both are essential to the healthy functioning of the body, their roles are totally different. Vitamin E acts primarily as an antioxidant, while Vitamin D promotes calcium absorption. And, contrary to vitamin D, Vitamin E cannot be synthesized by the human body under the ultraviolet action of light.

Vitamin E is abundant in vegetable oils. Applying a product containing natural vitamin E helps the skin in its battle against free radicals. Using Vitamin E is the natural way to slow down skin aging.
