Benefits of Vitamin E Oil For Skin and Hair

  • Protection against UV rays:

Vitamin E  protects the skin and hair from UV radiation. Vitamin E is often referred to as the “lightning rod” of the cell because it allows reactive molecules to hit the cells like lightning, without producing any damaging effect. Many studies have shown that Vitamin E applied topically can help prevent UV damage. Vitamin E can travel to the skin cell membranes and exert this same protective effect when a diet containing Vitamin E-rich foods like almond is consumed.

  • Prevents from aging:

Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant and it prevents oxidative stress which has a damaging effect on the cells. Vitamin E works together with other nutrients like selenium, Vitamin B3, Vitamin C, and glutathione and helps against the aging of the skin cells. Its antioxidant properties help in the elimination of wrinkles and also prevent further formation of wrinkles. Another important benefit of vitamin E oil

for women is that it helps in the production of collagen, which in turn helps in making you look younger, by maintaining the elasticity of the skin.
  • Enriches your skin and softens it:

Vitamin E is a good hydrant for dry skins. You can use it during the night (mix it in night cream / use Vitamin E oil with your moisturizer) to hydrate your skin.

  • Remove age spots, brown spots and stretch marks:

The most important benefits of Vitamin E oil for skin and hair is its spot removal ability. It helps in the removal of spots that appear due to poor liver function, aging and from pollution and free radicals.  It also takes care of stretch marks. Application of Vitamin E over these spots lightens them and unveils fairer looking skin.

  • Helps in healing burns and burn marks:

Its spot removal ability is so strong that it can help in the removal of burn marks as well as in healing burns.

  • Smooth and shiny hair:

Styling, pollution, lack of nourishment can lead to dull and rough hair. Not to forget dandruff and hair loss problems. Mixing Vitamin E oil with your regular hair oil and applying it to your hair will help in getting the shine and smoothness you need. It will also help in nourishing your hair and will take care of the hair loss problem and will make your hair grow evenly and healthily.

Sources of Vitamin E:

To avail benefits of Vitamin E oil for skin and hair, you need to incorporate Vitamin E in your diet too.

Vitamin E is found in the following foods: Seeds (like sunflower seeds), nuts (like almonds), mustard greens, turnip greens, spinach, collard greens, olives, kiwi, asparagus, blueberries, and vegetable oils like corn, soybean, sunflower, and cottonseed.

Most of the Vitamin E supplements contain a single form of the vitamin, alpha-tocopherol. However, as Vitamin E is actually a family of vitamins, some practitioners recommend vitamin E supplements containing other forms. Supplements containing this wide variety of Vitamin E forms are typically referred to as “mixed tocopherol” or “mixed tocotrienol” supplements.

EndNote:

    • Hi Dhivys ,

      can you please specify your skin issue ? do you mean pigmentation ? pigmentation and hairfall is common post pregnancy , specially after you reduce or stop breast feeding . This is because of hormonal changes occuring in your body . just eat well, include lot of protein foods and take good care by following a proper cleaning routine. a good skin care therapy at night is important . yu can add a capsule of vit E in your night cream and apply to your face.
