You probably know that taking Vitamin E orally is good for your health. So is eating foods that are high in natural Vitamin E, such as green, leafy vegetables, wheat germ and spinach. It can help increase your immunity system, protect against certain cancers and increase your brain power. But, did you also know that Vitamin E, which is also known as "Tocopherol", can help your body in other ways? Read this informative article and learn about the amazing health benefits of using Vitamin E Oil topically!
1. Vitamin E Oil Speeds the Healing of Cold Sores
Before I learned that taking L-Lysine every day helps prevent cold sores, I suffered with these unsightly lip blemishes. A co-worker recommended Vitamin E Oil. I bought a small bottle at the health food store. Thereafter, everytime I felt the familiar sting that a cold sore was getting ready to erupt on my lip, I would immediately massage the area with a few drops of Vitamin E Oil several times a day. The results? The cold sores rarely emerged. Nonetheless, I kept massaging my lip with Vitamin E for another day or two just to make sure the dreaded cold sore was really gone.
You can also give yourself daily protection against cold sores by using Vitamin E Oil as a lip moisturizer.
2. Vitamin E Oil - A Nighttime Beauty Aid for Wrinkles and Dry Skin
After you have removed your make up at night, apply a drop of Vitamin E Oil to your fingertip. Gently rub this natural beauty aid on Crow's Feet around your eyes, on wrinkles around your lips, on any problem skin areas you have on your face. (Do not use it on oily skin.) You can actually apply a little Vitamin E Oil to your entire face- just keep it out of your eyes- to help make your dry skin soft and moisturized.
Vitamin E Oil can also be used underneath your make up in the daytime to help protect your skin.
3. Vitamin E Oil - Treatment for Minor Sunburn
Another amazing health benefit of using Vitamin E Oil topically is that it can help soothe a minor sunburn. It will also help reduce the damage to your skin from being exposed to the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. Simply apply Vitamin E directly onto the sunburned areas twice a day until the skin is healed.

I had this weird rashy dry thickened skin on my chin, around my nose and across my eyebrows. The dermatologist tried what felt like every topical ointment know to man, nothing worked. Someone mentioned Vitamin e oil, and it is making a huge difference the dry patches are gone and my skin appears to be returning to normal!
Yes, love vitamin E for nasty cold sores and it sure is less expensive than most other cold sore remedies!
Thanks,have very dry hands,going to give it a try
Vitamin E is amazing. Terrific article Kassidy!
This sounds like something I could really do with to help fade some old scars from cuts, chickenpox (x3) and a chemical burn on my leg.

Terrific article! Very clear and informative! Reminds me that I should start taking Vitamin E again--it's been years. Thanks for the wealth of details!
Excellent tips! I think I'll start using it around my eyes to help with those wrinkles!
