  • Vitamin E (tocopherols and tocotrienols)

    Posted by Ifa on May 7, 2021 at 10:58 am

    So, apparently, there are various forms of vitamin E that can be made use of in cosmetic formulation.

    1. Which form of vitamin E is a product referring to when it enlists just ‘tocopherol’ in its ingredient list? 

    2. Which form/s would you recommend for:
    (a) antioxidant benefits for the skin
    (b) formula protection 

    3. How is a mixture of tocopherols and tocotrienols? 

    4. How is 0.1% BHT in comparison to vitamin E in terms of formula protection?

    5. Could you shed some light on IU in terms of vitamin E?
