Vitamin E
Ingredient Overview

Vitamin E, specifically in its purest and most active fat-soluble form as alpha-tocopherol, is a highly potent antioxidant that neutralizes cell-damaging free radicals, strengthens the natural skin barrier, and deeply moisturizes to soothe dryness and reduce visible signs of aging.
For best results, apply it daily in the morning combined directly with Vitamin C and Ferulic Acid to dramatically multiply their environmental defense and brightening benefits, or use it overnight to support deep barrier repair.
You can find this essential, nourishing antioxidant formulated in daily clinical skin treatments like SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic®, SkinCeuticals Resveratrol B E, SkinCeuticals Face Cream, and SkinCeuticals Daily Moisture.

What is Vitamin E (Alpha-tocopherol)?

The most abundant and purest form of vitamin E, this powerful antioxidant can be derived synthetically or sourced naturally from a variety of foods including vegetable oils. Alpha-tocopherol plays an important role in neutralizing free radicals, moisturizing skin, and improving the appearance of visible skin aging.

What are Free Radicals and How Vitamin E Neutralizes

Free radicals are unstable molecules produced by factors like UV exposure and pollution that damage skin cells through oxidative stress. This damage accelerates visible signs of aging such as fine lines, dullness, and skin laxity or sagging skin. Vitamin E neutralizes free radicals and reinforces the skin barrier, supporting an overall smoother, more youthful looking complexion.
