So I am thinking about starting to take a vitamin e pill every morning. I wanted to know if anyone has had good results with this for their skin. I know it is supposed to help your skin, but has it helped anyone?!

    I have personally never tried vitamin E but Vitamin D works really well for skin as well, give you a nice glow and helps with acne

    I've read a lot that suggests there is a synergistic component to the effectiveness of vitamins--that is, they work best when you have enough of all of them. I think you should consider a good multi vitamin and mineral supplement that will allow you to split your dose between morning and evening--because you will pee out any excess water soluble vitamins if you take it all at once and then you'll be low at the end of the day.

    I use vitamin E around my eyes before bed and if I have any blemishes, i rub vitamin E on the scar to help it heal. I love it very much and it really helps your skin. Don't worry, even though it is an oil, it will not make you break out. My skin is very sensitive yet vitamin E oil does not make me break out. I wake up in the morning feeling like my skin has been pumped full of nutrients and energy. I use very little (I soak the tip of a Q-Tip and use that) so a bottle of it has lasted me 6 months so far and it's not even halfway used up. I definitely recommend it!

    BTW I use it around my eyes because at my age (23), it's not good to use anti-aging creams. I'd like to avoid wrinkles around the eyes for as long as possible do I wear big sunglasses and use vitamin E at night :)

    best of luck!
