Skin Barrier

Vitamin E helps to maintain the skin’s natural barrier. The barrier consists of the uppermost layers of the skin and the oils, amino acids, ceramides, and fatty acids.

 

The barrier, as its name suggests protects the skin from allergens, bacteria and prevents transepidermal water loss.

 

Transepidermal water loss occurs when water from the skin is lost to the environment, it is particularly common in dry environments or in aging skin.

 

The lipophilic or oil-loving nature of vitamin E helps to replenish the skin’s natural oils and aids in maintaining this natural barrier. 

​

Another function of vitamin E is to help the skin retain moisture by strengthening the skin’s natural barrier function.

 

When tocopherol is delivered to your skin through the oil glands, it may help to improve your skin’s water-binding capacity and hydrates the top layers of the skin. It is also considered an effective ingredient for providing skin protection and supporting the treatment of eczema.
