| Pros | My face felt renewed the next morning. I used 1 whole 1000IU on my face and neck and massaged the residue on my hands, cuticles, elbows and knees to use up the thick oil left on my palms. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Very thick like honey so its hard to spread. |
| Bottom line | I have not been using it long enough to tell any difference in acne or scar repair but after just ONE application, I could tell a huge difference in my skin the next morning. I have oily skin with dry patches occasionly, monthly breakouts, large pores, fine lines, black heads and scars. Normally when I do a deep clean, my face feels very tight and the skin is tender and red. As soon as I applied the Vit E oil my skin cooled and calmed, the red faded and the tightness was instantly gone. It was very very thick and difficult to smooth out, I used the whole capsule. When I woke the next morning there was not one bit of oiliness left. My face was soft and smooth and felt moisturized and it hasnt seemed to get as oily throughout the day as it normally does. I will be thrilled if it actually reduces my pores, lines and scars! Oh yea and my skin tone was much improved, much more even. I definitely recommend and will continue using it myself. |

| Pros | Reduces the appearance of scars. Smoother skin. |
|---|---|
| Cons | None, if applied the right way. |
| Bottom line | This is the only thing that had worked for me. Everyone should try this: Cleanse your face. Always use WARM WATER so the stuff you're putting on your face can actually do something (penetrate the pores) Use a honey&aspirin mixture on your face for 30min, then exfoliate. Apply Bio-oil and massage for 10-15 minutes If you have large pores, use olive oil and massage on your face for 10-15 minutes. Then, use a Vitamin E capsule and massage your face for 10-15 minutes. Do NOT slather your face in oil; a tiny bit goes a LONG way. This WILL make you break out, so use a salicylic-based medicine on top of your acne-prone area after the last step. I'm not too comfortable with benzyol peroxide because it is too harsh on the skin. This actually works. Don't try to hurry up the massaging process because it's really important if you want to see results. Also, you need to KEEP on doing this to see results. |

| Pros | It does work. Leaves the skin smooth and soft. Doesn't leave skin oily after using it. Cheap. Been using it for a month, and now have started to see results |
|---|---|
| Cons | Hard to rub in, or for it to be absorbed into skin (so use it at night) A little viscous ans sticky You do have to wait a little for results to show |
| Bottom line | One thing i would like to recommend is that when using Vitamin E oil, make sure you exfoliate before you actually apply it to your skin, it helps absorbtion, as well as taking off the top layer of skin, speeding up the fading of the scar. I have been using it for a month now and what I do is prik vitamin E capsules with a pin and squees the oil out ant topically apply it to the skin and rub it in. Do this at night as getting it to absorb is tough. Then once apllied, i orally take what is left of the vitamin E capsule. Double the effectivness. You do have to be patient. Seeing results does take its time, but it sure does work. I do recommend exfoliating before applying as it really does speed up the process! |

| Pros | Lightens/vanishes scars! Easy to use Inexpensive Smooths skin! |
|---|---|
| Cons | Kind of sticky |
| Bottom line | I had severe acne from birth control pills and I tried EVERYTHING to first, get rid of the acne, and then second, get rid of the scarring from the acne. I used to put on benzoyl peroxide at night, but that dried out my skin too much and I still had acne in the morning and no change in scarring. I read on this site about how vitamin E has worked for many people in terms of scarring. I bought Nature's Gate Roll On Vitamin E oil and started to use it at night. I would recommend waiting about 20 minutes before heading to bed so the oil can penetrate your pores. I noticed a big difference after just three weeks! It has been three months since I started using it and the scars have almost completely disappeared! My acne has also gotten so much better. I plan on continuing to use it since it works so well for me. I definitely recommend the product! |

| Pros | cheap moisturizing natural |
|---|---|
| Cons | sticky doesn't absorb |
| Bottom line | I had mild-moderate acne as a kid, then clear from 20-26, then wammo-major breakouts as an adult. I am using proactiv-which took about 3.5 months to fully work-but only worked about 95% of the way. I started putting vitamin e oil on at night to help with the dryness and red scarring and it is amazing. I can tell when I don't use it--I do have about 4 pimpless right now, but they are small and under control. I would recommend using this product, but give it time to work-about 3 weeks I would say. |

| Pros | - Does lighten hyperpigmentation/acne scars - Evens skin tone - Very moisturizing |
|---|---|
| Cons | - Greasy (does not absorb well into skin, difficult to massage into skin) - Very slow - Very viscous (difficult to apply) |
| Bottom line | Applied topically (purchased the 100% pure vit e oil from CVS) but worked too slowly for my tastes. It was also incredibly nonabsorbent and always left the hair near my face oily so I could only apply it at nights (so I shower in the morning) or after school when I wouldn't be seeing anyone for the rest of the day. There are better options out there (recently purchased jojoba oil as a replacement -- very absorbent! too soon to make comments on it's effectiveness for fading scars but it is definitely very moisturizing and much easier to apply than vit e) |

| Pros | Makes skin smoother, brighter--better Fades red marks Natural Relatively inexpensive |
|---|---|
| Cons | Oily Doesn't help with active pimples |
| Bottom line | Most of my acne has resided--but the red marks remain! Vitamin E has be phenomenal at clearing things up. It speeds up the healing of dying/inactive pimples. Basically, I'll get a pimple, apply some Benzyl Peroxide. If it's still inflamed the next day (or next day...), I'll keep applying it. Once it's starting to recede, I'll apply Vitamin E. Within three to five days it'll be faded or gone completely (depending on severity of the pimple). I apply it everywhere I could potentially get a pimple (face, chest, back), but the majority of my red marks are on my back. Everywhere else (mostly the face) has KEPT clear, looks SMOOTH and frankly, kind of amazing. I'll still get the occasional pimple, but the severity and lifetime of those pimples are low. It IS oily, so I only apply it at night. This can be a pain, because it can wear off onto your clothes/sheets. There's not much you can do about this, but it isn't really all that bad. Of course, it may not work for everyone--but I DEFINITELY recommend you try it. |
