Vitamin E's Two Jobs in a Skincare Formula

Tocopherol earns its place twice over. On the skin it behaves as a lipid-soluble antioxidant, helping defend against the visible effects of daily environmental exposure. Inside the bottle it slows the oxidation of the oils and actives around it — which is why you so often find it sitting beside vitamin C. The classic pairing of L-ascorbic acid, ferulic acid, and tocopherol exists for exactly that reason.

It is in SkinCeuticals C E Ferulic, Revision Skincare C+ Correcting Complex, Revision Skincare Nectifirm Advanced, and Revision Skincare Intellishade Original SPF 45. SkinCeuticals and Revision Skincare in particular build much of their antioxidant work around it.

Is tocopherol the same thing as vitamin E oil?

Not quite. Tocopherol is a specific, purified form of vitamin E used at controlled percentages, whereas "vitamin E oil" usually means a much heavier, less refined carrier.
