Vitamin E Powder (Alpha Tocopheryl Acetate) - Cosmetic Grade for Skin care, 28 g

Benefits of Vitamin E for Skin

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that helps protect the skin from environmental stressors such as UV exposure and pollution. When applied topically, it supports the skin's natural barrier, locking in moisture for a smooth, supple complexion. Many skin care enthusiasts value vitamin E for its ability to calm occasional redness and promote an even skin tone. As an antioxidant, it neutralises free radicals that contribute to premature ageing, making it a popular choice in anti-ageing and moisturising products.

How to Uses Vitamin E Powder in DIY Skin care

Adding vitamin E powder to your homemade skin care is simple. Because it is oil-soluble, it must be dissolved in oils, butters, or other lipid phases before combining with water-based ingredients. A typical inclusion rate is 0.5% to 2% of the total formula. For a nourishing face serum, dissolve vitamin E powder in jojoba oil and add a few drops of your preferred essential oil. For a rich body butter, blend it with shea butter and coconut oil. Ensure it is fully dissolved to avoid graininess. Store finished products in dark glass bottles away from heat and light.

What Is Vitamin E Powder?

Vitamin E powder, specifically as alpha tocopheryl acetate, is a cosmetic-grade ingredient delivering 700 IU of vitamin E per gram. Its powder form allows for easy measurement and blending into both oil-based and water-based recipes. Unlike liquid vitamin E, the powder version gives you more control over concentration. This product is for external uses only and is ideal for creams, serums, lotions, and balms.

Why Choose Alpha Tocopheryl Acetate?

Alpha tocopheryl acetate is a stabilised form of vitamin E that resists oxidation better than pure tocopherol. This makes it perfect for DIY products requiring a longer shelf life. It is gentle on the skin, even for sensitive types. This highly concentrated cosmetic-grade powder means a little goes a long way. Our 28-gram package offers excellent value for multiple batches.

Store your vitamin E powder in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the container tightly sealed. Avoid moisture to prevent clumping. If clumps form, gently break them apart with a clean utensil. Always uses clean, dry tools. For best results, uses within one year of opening.
