Vitamin E for your skin

This skin saviour ensures the flexibility and fluidity of cell membranes and is critical in maintaining the suppleness and elasticity of the skin. It's also a part of the essential anti-ageing molecules, and can protect against sun exposure and pollution. Plus it has a hydrating and nourishing action and helps microcirculation. Phew, that's a lot of benefits. This is why you'll see vitamin E in a large variety of oils and moisturisers for the face, as well as for the body, hair and nails. In fact, not taking on board enough vitamin E can cause acne. The Revitalift Moisturizing Day Cream by L’Oréal Paris harnesses the power of Vitamin E to reduce fine lines and wrinkles and boost skin firmness, youthfulness and radiance. The Revitalift day cream also re-firms, restores, and replumps the skin.

Source of vitamin E

The principal source of vitamin E is our food. It's in grain, nut and seed oils, especially wheatgerm oil. If you're on a weight-loss regime, be careful not to limit your consumption of vitamin E. Your skin will become dry and uncomfortable very quickly and fine lines will appear and deepen.
