Antioxidant, Masking, Skin Conditioning

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.

It’s not better than any other cheap(er) lip balm. It didn’t particularly help with hydration longer than few hours.
Also the cap is horrible to put on! Overall I can’t imagine that all product can be squeezed out of it. And since you can’t place it upside down (due horrible cap), pretty sure most of it will not come out at some point.

Disappointing. Doesn’t do much for my lips. No noticeable improvement. No healing. Then the applicator tip fell off and made application messy and inconvenient. I threw it away and won’t buy it again.
