What it does: Antioxidant, Masking, Skin Conditioning
Community Rating: Liked

Tocopherol (also known as Vitamin E) is a common antioxidant used to help protect the skin from free-radicals and strengthen the skin barrier. It's also fat soluble - this means our skin is great at absorbing it.

Vitamin E also helps keep your natural skin lipids healthy. Your lipid skin barrier naturally consists of lipids, ceramides, and fatty acids. Vitamin E offers extra protection for your skin’s lipid barrier, keeping your skin healthy and nourished.

Another benefit is a bit of UV protection. Vitamin E helps reduce the damage caused by UVB rays. (It should not replace your sunscreen). Combining it with Vitamin C can decrease sunburned cells and hyperpigmentation after UV exposure.

You might have noticed Vitamin E + C often paired together. This is because it is great at stabilizing Vitamin C. Using the two together helps increase the effectiveness of both ingredients.

There are often claims that Vitamin E can reduce/prevent scarring, but these claims haven't been confirmed by scientific research.

Breaks down on oily skin
I wanted to love this one because it had really good coverage for my acne & PIH and was a good color match for me. Unfortunately on my very oily skin it melted as the day goes on with obvious cracking around the T zone. TBF it's a common problem with tinted products and foundations for me so it's not just this product's fault.

Also to note because of the good coverage, it's not enough as a solo SPF because the 1/4-1/2 tsp you need to apply for SPF 50 would not spread well so a regular sunscreen is needed in addition.
