Key Benefits of Vitamin E (Mixed Tocopherols) in Skincare and Cosmetic Formulations:

  • Natural Antioxidant Power: Protects oils and butters from oxidation, helping maintain product freshness and stability.

  • Extends Shelf Life of Lipids: Adding as little as 0.5% to carrier oils or butters helps prevent rancidity and degradation over time. (Note: For products containing water, a broad spectrum preservative system is still required.)

  • Supports Skin Health: Rich in D-alpha-tocopherol, Vitamin E is known to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and protect skin from environmental stressors such as UV rays and pollution.

  • Versatile Use: Ideal for formulating lotions, creams, balms, oils, and serums, especially those that are oil-based.

Vitamin E vs. Rosemary Oleoresin Extract (ROE)

For even more antioxidant protection, Vitamin E and Rosemary Oleoresin Extract (ROE) can be used together or separately as part of a natural preservative system in oil-based products. Both help maintain product quality and extend shelf life without synthetic preservatives.

Appearance & Formulation Notes:

  • Form: Reddish, viscous oil with a mild, characteristic vegetable oil aroma.

  • Color Impact: May add a slight tint to skincare products.

  • Oxidation Note: Vitamin E may darken slightly when exposed to air and light, this is a natural characteristic.

  • GMO-Free & Gluten-Free: Clean, ethical, and suitable for natural formulations.

  • For External Use Only: This cosmetic-grade Vitamin E is not intended for direct skin application or ingestion. Always incorporate it into formulated products as directed.

How to Use Vitamin E in Your Formulations:

  • Recommended Usage Rate: 0.1%–2% in oil-based products

  • Compatible With: Carrier oils, butters, balms, serums, emulsions (oil phase)

  • Incompatible With: Direct skin application without dilution

Vitamin E Oil is widely valued in skincare formulations for its dual benefits:

  • Supporting skin health

  • Enhancing product stability

Rich in natural antioxidants, Vitamin E oil may help reduce the appearance of scars, stretch marks, and discoloration. Environmental free radicals can slow scar healing, but applying formulations containing Vitamin E Oil may assist in diminishing visible marks while keeping the skin moisturized and soft.

While its primary role in creams and lotions is as a powerful antioxidant, Vitamin E oil also contributes to skin-softening and moisturizing properties, making it an essential ingredient in both professional skincare formulations and DIY cosmetic products.

Why Add Vitamin E Oil to Your Formulations?

  1.  Protects Against Oxidation – Helps stabilize formulations that contain sensitive actives like:

2 .Supports Skin Repair – May help fade scars, stretch marks, and uneven skin tone.

3.   Moisturizing & Softening – Enhances hydration and improves skin texture when incorporated into lotions, creams, balms, and body butters.

4.  GMO-Free & Palm-Free – Sourced from natural, plant-based mixed tocopherols, perfect for clean beauty brands and conscious formulators.

 

 

Cautions: Keep tightly closed in a cool, dark, dry place as Vitamin E is prone to oxidization.
