4 Reasons Why You Should Add Vitamin E To Your Skincare Routine

Eesha Kokane

Currently, the skincare industry is all about vitamin C, retinoids, and chemical exfoliants. However, there is one underdog ingredient that no one is really paying attention to—vitamin E. You’re probably even unknowingly benefitting from this particular vitamin since it’s found in many creams, serums and other skincare ingredients, and with good reason. It’s is full of antioxidants and it can do wonders for your skin. So without any further ado, here’s why you should add this miracle skincare ingredient to your routine, STAT:

1. Hello Hydration

Vitamin E is fat-soluble and it comes in many forms like oils or creams when it comes to topical application. It’s moisturising and easily absorbed by the skin. So if you’re someone with very dry skin, then you should definitely consider adding this ingredient to your skincare routine.

2. Anti-Ageing

Whenever you go out into the sun, you face the risks of UV rays and pollution. Hence, your skin will produce free-radicles which in turn will cause damage to your skin’s collagen. This will cause wrinkles and fine lines in your skin. Fortunately for you, if you’ve used vitamin E in your skincare routine then it’ll help fight and neutralise these free-radicals. Hence it’s a great anti-ageing ingredient.

3. Anti-Inflammatory

Vitamin E has anti-inflammatory properties that help your skin stay supple and moisturised. It also reduces any redness or itchiness of the skin. So if you’re someone with sensitive skin, then you should definitely consider adding this ingredient to your skincare routine.

4. Reduce Dark Spots

Free radicals can cause damage to the skin and cause pigmentation. Hence, using vitamin E (which effectively neutralizes free radicals) will help you reduce the appearance of any dark spots.
