I especially find ~Mae West it to be helpful during the winter season. Consider incorporating Vitamin E into your current self-care routine. Here are some of the benefits: Skin health Vitamin E is most commonly known for its benefits of skin health and appearance. At a very young age, my mom introduced me to her Vitamin E skincare bedtime routine. After cleansing my skin, she would share a small portion of her moisturizer along with a drop of Vitamin E. I would gently mix them together and apply to my face and neck. It was not only fun bonding time, but also I learned how to take care of my skin. Thanks, mom! Anti-aging Vitamin E can help reverse the signs of aging and wrinkles while keeping the skin soft, smooth and supple. When applied to your face two or three times a week, it can reduce inflammation and make your skin look younger.
Relieves chapped dry cuticles and lips Keep your lips and cuticles moisturized every day. I recommend you keep Vitamin E capsules on hand. When needed, puncture one and apply the oil to your lips and cuticles. Nourishment Foods high in Vitamin E include sunflower seeds, almonds, peanuts, swiss chard, beet greens, spinach, avocados, butternut squash, kiwifruit, trout, shrimp, olive oil, wheat germ oil, and broccoli. Enhance your beauty by adding several to your next shopping list!
