I am here to tell you; you can take vitamins topically too.
This is my favorite thing ever! Vitamin E Oil. This stuff is great. For so many reasons. I'll tell you the things I use it for and I'll tell you the things you can use it for!
Here we go...!
I use vitamin E oil under my eyes as an eye cream(or in this case, oil).
Using an eye cream/oil is super duper important.
The skin under our eyes is very delicate and thin. That's why we see wrinkles there first, along with darkness (which is caused by many things). When we look tired it's typically our eyes that give it away. Looking swollen, dark, saggy all those fun words that we never want to describe our eyes with! Therefore, using an eye cream/oil is important. We need to take extra care of our eyes! We can't scrub away the skin there, it's too thin and delicate. It's not like the rest of our skin. So, pay extra attention to it! ( :
After I wash my face I drop a drop of vitamin E oil on my fingers and pat on each eye (under eye and eyelid) I do this in the morning too under my concealer(Just let it dry a bit before you do that).
These are the benefits of using vitamin E oil...
1.Vitamin E oil is super super great for fading acne scars, sun spots and hyper-pigmentation.
2. It's obviously very moisturizing, it's an oil after all! ( : We need extra moisturizing products there because we are not producing a natural oil like the rest of our face.
3.Vitamin E oil also influences the production of collagen, a structural protein partially responsible for the strength and elasticity of skin. As we get older we start reducing our bodies collagen. (Unfortunately) This is why our skin starts to sag and wrinkle... But, by using oils like vitamin E which help produce these things we are more likely to have tight, strong eye skin. Hahaha, it sounds funny but it's a good thing!
Since I have been using the oil i've noticed that my my eyes aren't nearly as dark as they use to be, the skin under my eyes feels less thin. (About a year ago I felt like my eyes were looking really weird... Super dark, thin and every morning I had little lines on the side of my eyes. Not good signs for only being 16 at the time!) Also the texture of my eye lids and under eyes feels so much smoother. My concealer goes on a lot better. Not to mention I hardly wear concealer now because it's not very dark anymore! I've always had issues with dark circles under my eyes. But they look so much better these days!
This all sounds really great, right?! So check it out! You can find vitamin E oil almost anywhere. You get a lot, so you don't have to worry about running out.
Hope you learned something about vitamin E oil!!

I never thought about using it under my eyes! I'll have to try it! :) My dark circles have got to go...
ReplyDeleteYou should try it! It's really is great! The nice thing about it (among many nice things) is if you need more protection, put on more if you want less put on less haha. It's not like some goopy eye cream.
ReplyDeleteI really really have noticed a difference under my eyes. It's really not as dark as it use to be! Which is so awesome to. I always ended up putting on too much concealer and then it looked cakey and horrible under my eyes. The only thing I use under my eyes is vit. E oil and my Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Dark-Circle Roller (what a long name...) Which has a "sheer tint" to it.
I think I'm gonna do a blog post about this concealer eye-roller thing soon haha.
