Hydrating the skin, fighting wrinkles, removing dark circles – magic is waiting to happen to your skin with the help of vitamin E capsules! Don't believe us? Read here to know more!

Why is it that our skin which is glowing and alive one day becomes dull, tired and rough the next? How come the day cream that worked yesterday is not working today?

vitamin E

Well, your skin's requirement keeps changing, and you need to ruffle up your skin care routine, every now and then, to meet its changing needs. And one ingredient you can never go wrong with is vitamin E capsule!

Let us understand exactly what vitamin E capsule face masks can do to our skin. Being an oil-soluble nutrient, vitamin E tends to be heavier than a water-soluble lotion, and hence works better in hydrating dry and parched skin!

Vitamin E bolsters the production of collagen, a fibre-like protein that maintains the elasticity of the skin, which in turn keeps the fine lines and wrinkles at bay!

On the other hand, vitamin E is a carrier of high antioxidants, which form a protective barrier against the skin cells damaging free radicals, lightening pigmentation and clearing out the skin!

And the most important of all, vitamin E gel works as a mild exfoliant that cleanses the skin of impurities, dirt and grime, without disrupting its pH balance.

If you still don't buy what we are claiming, we suggest you give vitamin E gel for glowing skin a try and see for yourself!
