Vitamin E (D-alpha Tocopherol)
Natural. Produced from GMO free soybeans. 1000IU
This Vitamin E is D-alpha tocopherol, the naturally occurring, biologically active form of vitamin E. It is extracted from non-GMO soybean oil and diluted with sunflower oil to improve pourability. The final product contains no known allergenic components.
Ideal for use as an antioxidant in oil-based formulations, helping to slow oxidation and extend shelf life. It also offers skin-conditioning benefits, making it a popular addition to oils, balms, serums, and emulsions.
Please note: This is an antioxidant, not a broad spectrum preservative. It can be added to anhydrous (oil-only) blends and balms to help extend the shelf life of oils. It can also be added to emulsions (creams) in the cool down phase, in conjunction with a broad spectrum preservative such as Geogard 221.
Key Points
• Antioxidant: Helps slow the oxidation of oils in anhydrous products at 0.5–1% usage
• Skincare benefits: Adds nourishing properties at 2–30% usage
• Natural, single-isomer form (D-alpha tocopherol)
• Extracted from GMO-free soybean oil
• Diluted with sunflower oil
• Palm oil free and vegan friendly
Natural vs. Synthetic
Natural Vitamin E (D-alpha tocopherol) contains only the active isomer and is considered more beneficial for skin.
Synthetic Vitamin E (dl-alpha tocopherol) contains a mix of active and inactive isomers and is less bioavailable.
Precautions
Vitamin E is a concentrated antioxidant and can be mildly irritating to skin when undiluted. Dilute at least 50% in carrier oils before applying directly to the skin.
