Can we use Vitamin E Capsules directly on face and hair ? Tips to use Vitamin E Capsule

 

Nowadays, many people visit pharmacies to buy Vitamin E capsules for application on their skin and hair. But is it really appropriate to apply Vitamin E capsules directly to the skin and hair? Today, I will discuss this topic.

Before that, let’s first understand Vitamin E.

Vitamin E is also known as the "beauty vitamin" because it has antioxidant properties. It is found in abundance in dry fruits like almonds, cashews, walnuts, sunflower seeds, and sesame seeds; green vegetables like spinach, cabbage, and fenugreek leaves; and fruits like kiwi, avocado, and mangoes.

• Vitamin E helps reduce age-related skin issues like blemishes and wrinkles.
• It keeps the skin hydrated and radiant.
• It helps reduce hair fall, prevents split ends, and strengthens the hair.
• It boosts the immune system, protecting the body from infections and diseases.
• It helps balance cholesterol levels.
• It improves blood circulation, reducing the risk of heart attacks.
• It strengthens eye muscles and helps maintain clear vision.
• It aids in the faster healing of small wounds, burns, and scars.

These are the benefits of Vitamin E. If you are consuming the foods mentioned above regularly, you don’t need to take Vitamin E capsules separately. However, many people nowadays apply Vitamin E capsules directly to their skin and hair.

To clarify, the Vitamin E capsules available in pharmacies are meant for oral consumption, not for direct application to the skin and hair. If you need Vitamin E for skincare, you can use moisturizers or creams that contain Vitamin E. Similarly, for hair care, you can use shampoos and conditioners enriched with Vitamin E.

If you still want to apply Vitamin E from capsules to your skin and hair, how should you do it?

It is best not to apply Vitamin E oil directly to your skin and hair, as it may cause allergic dermatitis. Instead, mix the oil from the capsule with aloe vera, coconut oil, almond oil, or rose water before applying.
