Vitamin E for the skin - beneficial properties and secrets of effective use

What is vitamin E and what is it for?

You know, I was very impressed with the meaning of this word - vitamin E.

Translated from Latin, vitamin E (tocopherol acetate) means - "conducive to birth."

That is why it is actively used in home cosmetology to rejuvenate the skin, it is taken orally in order to strengthen one's health and start rejuvenating processes in the body from the inside.

In fact, it is very difficult to find any other means that would penetrate so effectively and so quickly into all the cells of the body and affect absolutely all the processes that take place there.

Women who know the secret power of vitamin E often use it to care for their face and also take it internally in order to slow down age-related changes and tighten aging skin in order to maintain its firmness and elasticity for as long as possible, smooth out existing wrinkles.

All the means used to prepare anti-aging compositions for yourself and take care of your face at home are quite simple to prepare.

Vitamin E is a completely inexpensive remedy, it is available to everyone, and despite this, its effectiveness in rejuvenating the skin of the face and body is so strong that it is worth talking about it in more detail.

Personally, when I found out about the amazing properties of vitamin E, I could not pass by and not use this remedy for my benefit.

In order for this fat-soluble vitamin to bring the greatest benefit to the skin, it must be used in a complex way, replenishing its content in the body in various ways: together with food, through cosmetic care based on this vitamin and consuming it internally in the form of a vitamin supplement.

How is vitamin E beneficial for facial skin?

Thanks to the use of vitamin E in your "skin rejuvenation program", you can achieve the following results in a fairly short time:

• The condition of the facial skin improves. If our body receives enough vitamin E every day, then problematic moments, such as dry skin, or, conversely, its excessive fat content, go away.
• The flaking and irritation of the skin stops, a very attractive and healthy glow appears, the skin begins to glow from the inside. This is due to the fact that vitamin E promotes the renewal of skin cells, restoring its healthy appearance and restoring its natural structure without the use of any injections and, moreover, surgical intervention.
• Vitamin E is able to increase the skin's UV protection. As a result, age spots, burns and redness from exposure to the sun, various allergic reactions in the form of small pimples, itching, etc. will appear on the skin less often.
• In the female body, with the regular use of vitamin E, the aging process slows down, since tocopherol acetate helps to normalize the work of the ovaries, which produce estrogen. When a woman's body contains the necessary level of estrogen (neither more nor less than is necessary for her health), then the condition of the skin improves significantly: it becomes more elastic, more toned, and the appearance of the first wrinkles is postponed indefinitely. By using vitamin E, it is possible to significantly reduce the appearance of existing wrinkles and prevent the appearance of new ones.
• Any damage to the skin is restored much faster if you use vitamin E. If there is enough vitamin E in the body, then all the regenerating processes are very active, so any scratches, acne marks and scars disappear in a fairly short time. After stress, the skin recovers much faster.
• Applying vitamin E, you can achieve a tangible lifting effect: it is able to tighten the skin, eliminate sagging folds on the face, the so-called "flew" and "double chin". It is most effective for these purposes to use vitamin E in combination with massage lifting procedures.
• With regular use of vitamin E in the skin, the quantitative and qualitative production of elastin and collagen increases, due to which the skin is significantly younger and its firmness and elasticity increase.
• Blood circulation in blood vessels and capillaries is enhanced, which contributes to the penetration of a sufficient amount of oxygen into the skin cells.
• Vitamin E is an excellent antidepressant. Its use gives the body a wonderful charge of vivacity, which improves the complexion, cheeks redden, cell membranes become stronger and the skin becomes more resistant to any psychological influences, recovering much faster after stressful situations or even showing no outwardly any reaction to stimuli. Fatigue is less pronounced on the face.
• Vitamin E is very necessary for our skin, especially during the winter cold, as it perfectly protects the skin of the face from cold and wind, is able to quickly eliminate the effects of being in the cold, removing irritation and tingling on the skin that are after being in the cold.
• Vitamin E is an excellent antioxidant, it protects cells from the invasion and destructive effects of free radicals, which can interfere with the normal and timely formation of sufficient elastin and collagen in the skin.
• Due to the fact that vitamin E effectively and in a very short time removes toxins from skin cells, its condition is significantly improved.
• The foci of inflammation on the skin are eliminated, acne eruptions pass faster, the formation of “black spots” on the skin slows down, acne passes much faster, the skin of the face is whitened, freckles and age spots are lightened.
• Thanks to its remarkable moisturizing effect, the use of vitamin E prevents the evaporation of precious moisture from the skin cells, so that the skin is always hydrated, looks fresh, healthy and radiant.
• Using vitamin E for the skin of the face and body, you can protect yourself from various skin cancers.
• Since vitamin E is able to actively protect red blood cells from destruction, it copes with anemia, thereby saving the skin of the face from excessive pallor.

Scientists have experimentally proven that vitamin E has such a beneficial, effective and complex effect on all processes occurring in cells that it literally "makes" them work in the mode of a twenty-year-old organism, even if you are over 35 years old!

Therefore, it is very important to learn how to properly apply tocopherol for our skin, because, thus, we can literally automatically start all the processes of rejuvenation every time, and this will be reflected in the most favorable way on our appearance.

How to use vitamin E in facial skin care?

The use of vitamin E to improve skin condition can be divided into external use and internal use:

1. Internal use is the consumption of vitamin E in the form of vitamin supplements and the consumption of food that contains a sufficient amount of tocopherol.
2. External use of vitamin E is its pure use for rubbing into the skin or adding to masks or creams.
3. In order to saturate your skin with tocopherol acetate, keep it youthful as long as possible and improve the appearance of the skin, you can use the following recipes.

Rubbing vitamin E into the skin

This is the easiest, fastest and most effective way.

I use it a lot, especially when there is no time.

I especially like this method to apply to the area around the eyes, according to my observations, the skin around the eyes smoothes and becomes more youthful.

Using this method, it is necessary to strictly observe the dosage and rules for applying the product, then you can not only intensively moisturize and nourish your skin, but also reduce or prevent skin aging.

• How to use?

Vitamin E can be used in oil or in an aqueous solution. You can use vitamin E capsules for this, just gently piercing them with a needle.

Perfectly heals wounds, smoothes the skin.

It is necessary to apply in a very thin layer, and in the area around the eyes it is necessary to apply especially carefully, not rubbing, but simply tapping with your fingers, as if driving in a small amount of the product.

It is very important to apply a small amount of vitamin E, literally a drop, without exceeding the dosage, otherwise the effect will be the opposite: irritation, peeling may appear, the skin may turn red.

Cream with vitamin E and glycerin

At home, you can make your own cream that will contain vitamin E and glycerin.

Such a simple cream can actually work wonders! In addition, it is much safer than the store counterpart, since it does not contain any preservatives or fragrances.

This cream is universal, it is suitable for almost all skin types, including sensitive.

Such a cream is used not only for the face, but also for the skin of the hands and body. In winter, it's just a salvation, girls!

To prepare it, you need to mix 50 ml. decoction of herbs (chamomile, linden, sage, mint - you can choose), 50 ml. vegetable glycerin and 5 drops of vitamin E.

You need to store such a mixture in the refrigerator for no more than 3 days, and then prepare a new cream.

Shake the mixture thoroughly before applying.

During the day, you can apply any day cream that you use to your face, and in the evening - this is the composition. The skin will be grateful to you!

Adding vitamin E to various oils and creams

Vitamin E can be added to a variety of vegetable oils and any creams you use. Can be added to body milk.

As vegetable oils (base), olive oil, almond oil, sesame oil are suitable - they are universal.

In the oil + vitamin E composition, you can add a couple of drops of essential oils that match your skin type, so the effect will be better.

It is very important not to exceed the dosage in order to avoid the opposite effect, as described above.

Therefore, a few drops in a jar of cream will be enough to moisturize the skin well and accelerate collagen production.

The areas around the eyes should be lubricated with tocopherol oil very carefully. In order to achieve the effect, you need regularity, so you need to do this every evening before going to bed, removing the excess mixture after 15-20 minutes with a cotton pad.

Each of these masks is suitable for a particular skin type or helps to achieve a specific effect. You can choose according to your needs.

How to properly apply masks in vitamin E for the face?

In order to get the desired effect, it is imperative to follow the rules.

They are simple, straightforward and quite feasible:

1. For the first time using a mask with vitamin E, I advise you to reduce the dosage of this vitamin in the composition, in order to see how your skin will react to this vitamin. This precaution is especially true for those with very sensitive skin.
2. Some kind of ambiguous and especially strong allergic reaction to tocopherol is extremely rare, but still, you should not risk it.
3. Do not exceed a dosage of two to three drops per mask composition at a time.
4. The mask is always applied to a clean face and after 15-20 minutes it is washed off with warm water, after which it is applied to a still wet (this is important!) Face with a nourishing or moisturizing cream.
5. You can significantly enhance the rejuvenating effect of masks by pre-steaming your face.
6. Using a scrub after washing will help the mask achieve the effect that we put on it most strongly.
7. Adding to the composition according to your skin type significantly increases the effectiveness of masks with vitamin E.
8. It is best to apply face masks in the evening, from 17 to 20-21 hours, at which time our skin is most susceptible to all our "youth manipulations".
9. Before that, it will be useful to cleanse the skin with a scrub.
10. It is necessary to apply the mask carefully, carefully, rinse off - just rub and stretch the skin - taboo!
11. While the mask is working, which is 15-20 minutes, you need to lie down, close your eyes and rest, forgetting about all the problems and urgent matters. Maximum relaxation of facial muscles during cosmetic manipulations significantly increases the rejuvenating effect of them!
12. You can make masks from one to three times a week. It is advisable to choose for yourself various two or three masks with vitamin E in the composition and alternate them.

When is it necessary to use vitamin masks and why?

Face masks with vitamin E in sotava, various oil mixtures and rubbing pure vitamin E into the skin are most effective in the following cases:

1. the age of 20-30 years is an excellent prophylactic agent for young skin to prevent the early manifestation of signs of aging;
2. from 30 to 40 years old, when the skin is more mature, tocopherol is an excellent drug against the first age-related changes, which appear in the form of small wrinkles, age spots, grayness and yellowness of the skin;
3. after 40 years, vitamin E is simply vital for skin care as the most effective anti-aging agent;
4. vitamin E can and should always be used to tone tired skin, skin after stressful situations, when it has lost its freshness and healthy appearance;
5. if there is a need in adolescence to get rid of inflammation and skin rashes;
6. use effectively and prudently during periods of high solar activity to prevent the appearance of age spots.

Where to Buy Quality Vitamin E?

I used to buy vitamin E capsules for the face at the pharmacy, but to be honest, I was so tired of constantly piercing and squeezing them out that I had to look for another option.

I am buying now this is such a vitamin e and I like it very much, it is convenient to use.

Over time, the body's resources are depleted, and the skin needs special care to maintain its excellent condition: protection, additional nutrition, hydration, renewal.

One of the ways to maintain beauty and youth on your own is the use of vitamins for the skin of the face.

What specific vitamins are necessary for the skin of the face

Violation of natural biochemical processes that occur in skin cells leads to the appearance of such troubles as sagging facial contours, the formation of skin creases (wrinkles), the appearance of acne and acne, peeling. To restore its functions, problematic or flabby skin needs vitamins, special substances, coenzymes.

They enter the human body with food, but this is not enough to satisfy all the needs of the body. It is on this basis that it is possible and necessary to nourish the skin from the outside, through aqueous and oily solutions of the most important vitamins.

What vitamins are specifically needed for facial skin? Most of the open by man:

vitamin A, or retinol;

vitamin E, or tocopherol;

vitamin C or ascorbic acid;

B vitamins;

vitamin H or biotin;

vitamin F (a couple of substances are hiding under this name).

Depending on the state of the body and the needs of the skin, it is imperative to drink good vitamin and mineral complexes at least every six months. In February, it is necessary to start taking beauty vitamins, so that by spring the hair shines with health, the face is beautiful, and the nails are strong and strong.

But it is possible and necessary to use beauty vitamins externally all year round. Inexpensive pharmaceutical solutions can solve virtually any skin problem.

What are the benefits of vitamin A for the face

Retinol, or vitamin A, is most important for mature or problem skin. It is this content of this vitamin that depends on the condition of the skin cells. The most responsible are the following properties of retinol:

the property to stimulate the production of its own collagen, thereby increasing the elasticity and smoothness of the dermis (it is not in vain that this wonderful substance is called the vitamin of beauty);

the ability to restore the production of its own hyaluronic acid, in other words, to practically fill the skin from the inside with freshness, elasticity, health and restore the structure of the dermis;

the property to protect the body from the harmful effects of free radicals, thereby inhibiting the aging process. Thanks to the antioxidant properties of retinol, the elasticity of the skin remains for a long time.

If there is enough vitamin A for the body, it is possible to forget about small wrinkles, dry skin, sagging and flabbiness. If there is a lack of retinol, then the face will age early, the skin will become dry, comedones and acne will appear on it. The diet must include seafood, meat, beef liver, egg yolks, orange fruits and vegetables, and herbs. All of these foods are sources of natural vitamin A.

Retinol remarkably protects the dermis from the aggressive action of solar ultraviolet radiation, strong winds, frost, high humidity on the face. It prevents the breakdown of collagen fibers, preventing the formation of small and deep wrinkles. Cosmetics with retinol remarkably smooth skin color, relieve inflammation, and erase small wrinkles from the face.

Vitamin A for the face works best on mature skin. For a young face, it may turn out to be heavy, since in the young dermis, the processes of active production of collagen and hyaluronic acid are already excellent. But for rapid rejuvenation, regeneration of skin tissue, restoration of the usual level of moisture and collagen reserves, this vitamin is simply irreplaceable.

It is necessary to use creams with retinol correctly. It is imperative to take into account the following conditions:

has the essence of starting to use cosmetics with vitamin A at the end of 35 years. It can be both creams and masks, serums, lipsticks;

It is imperative to understand , that an excess of vitamin A for the face is terrible, especially when it comes to youthful skin. Based on this, it is necessary to use a cream with retinol in courses, not longer than two months. After that, the skin must be given time to rest, having stopped using products with vitamin A. for three months.

secondly, it is possible to apply an oil solution to the skin in the form of a mask, removing the remaining oil after half an hour with a dry napkin;

thirdly, on the basis of a solution of retinol or vitamin A, it is possible to prepare excellent homemade masks, mixing them with suitable components (cottage cheese, eggs, etc.).

Retinol belongs to the group of fat-soluble substances, therefore it must be mixed with oils. Because the excellent vitamin has a low melting point, you cannot add it to homemade masks, which are prepared in a water bath and are generally heated.

It is extremely necessary to use pure vitamin A solution with extreme caution. Bare application without mixing with oil or cream can cause a strong negative skin reaction (burning, tingling, redness), and after a while peeling.

Here are the recipes for the most simple and effective retinol masks:

Three tablespoons of almond oil are heated in a water bath (the oil should not boil). Vitamin E is injected into the liquid in oil form, no more than a teaspoon. The composition is mixed until smooth. It can be applied to the entire face or only to areas prone to peeling. After 15 minutes, the remnants of the drug must be blotted with a paper towel, do not rinse with water.

Two tablespoons of chamomile and nettle are mixed, the collection is poured with a glass of boiling water, covered with a lid and infused for at least half an hour. After the specified time, the infusion is filtered and stale rye bread is soaked in the resulting liquid. You should get a thick gruel. The contents of one ampoule of tocopherol are added to it, the product is stirred and distributed over the skin of the face. After a quarter of an hour, the mass must be removed, and the skin should be rinsed with cool water. With regular use of the method, you can get rid of not only wrinkles, but also acne and oily skin.

Egg mask for normal skin

Two tablespoons of burdock oil are heated in a water bath until warm and mixed with the yolk of one egg. Vitamin E is added to the mass - an ampoule or a teaspoon of an oil solution. If additional skin hydration is needed, a little retinol can be injected. The mass can be used in two ways. It can be smeared on the face and left until the composition dries - this will lead to an increase in the elasticity of the epidermis and get rid of fine wrinkles. If the product is used as a gommage (roll), it will refresh the color and even out the skin relief.
