Skincare: 5 Amazing Benefits Of Vitamin E Oil In Monsoons

While monsoon season is all about beautiful weather, it also comes with oily skin and host of other skin issues. Vitamin E is known for its magical benefits for skin and beauty and the same stands true during the monsoon. Vitamin E oil is both a nutrient and an antioxidant. In fact, as per the National Institutes of Health Office of Dietary Supplements, it helps fight free radicals, which damage cells and lead to other ailments including cancer. As per experts, Vitamin E oil is a great fat-soluble antioxidant that can rejuvenate your skin and when it is in its purest form it can prove to be extremely versatile. There could be several ways to use vitamin E oil but some of the most popular ones are to slather it on your skin as is or swallow it in a capsule. It is easily available on a general pharmacy.  

But before you head out to buy some, here are some health benefits of vitamin E oil for your skin you must know.

1. Nourishes Skin From Within

Many dermatologists and skin experts have boasted about Vitamin E’s ability to nourish our skin from inside. You can simply burst a Vitamin E capsule with a pin and apply it onto the face for a soft, supple and radiant skin.

2. Treat and Lightens Scars

Vitamin E oil can also help in regenerating new skin cells which lead to lightening stubborn marks and spots or scars on the face.

3. Anti-Ageing

Application of Vitamin E oil two-three times a week with a moisturiser can help reverse signs of premature ageing such as wrinkles around the eyes or fine lines.

4. Treats Sunburns

A few drops of vitamin E oil can do wonders for those summer sunburns you’ve got. All you need to do is rub it gently over the area. The antioxidants tend to neutralize the effects of free radicals due to the ultraviolet radiation and soothe the sunburns.

5. Cleanser

Monsoon and rains come with a host of dirt, grime and impurities that stick to our skin due to the humidity. Vitamin E oil has the ability to remove all the dirt without getting rid of skin's oil balance. You can simply dab a cotton boil with a few drops of Vitamin E oil and wipe your face daily.  

While Vitamin E oil is great for all skin types, but each skin is different from another, and it would be advisable to use it in moderation. If you have a skin allergy or issue, it is advised to use it only after consulting a skin expert.
