| Pros | ~Very hydrating for skin when used topically ~Natural ~Relatively cheap ~Helps heal acne after it's been extracted quickly ~Helps minimize scarring |
|---|---|
| Cons | ~Doesn't completely absorbe, so I wear it at night, but it will come off on your pillow so make sure to put it on before you lay your head down to let it work it's magic. |
| Bottom line | I have used vitamin e topically after a pimple has come out for years now, and it heals it a lot faster than it would without it. It also reduces the scarring...I never end up with permenant scars, ever. I get the capsules and cut them open, and depending on how bad my acne is I use one or two a night (I also use it for any dry spots and around my eyes because it hydrates so well!) |

| Pros | Lightens: Scars, Hyper pigmentation, and sometimes even acne (I say lighten and not remove because it's only been about 2 weeks but the results are stellar) Makes skin feel good and you should apply it before you go to bed (with the pill pop it and apply like any other mask) it's important to remain consistent, I've remained consistent for 2 weeks and I notice a huge difference in the red marks and acne scars they've been lightened by a noticeable amount! |
|---|---|
| Cons | None really just a little sloppy but that isnt really a problem. |
| Bottom line | Get this product if you have acne scars and/or marks. It takes a couple of days to see the first results but as you consistently use Vitamin E your scars will be much less visible, trust me it works on most types of scars, just use it consistently and I look forward to how much more my scars heal even after these amazing 2 weeks! |

Let sit for about 10 minutes. Rinse off without using soap. Then use a cotton ball and rub vitamin E oil a thin layer. this cleared my face within 2 weeks and scares lightened. |

| Pros | visible results immediately cheap doesnt cause breakouts |
|---|---|
| Cons | greasy messy gets on pillowcase/sheets lightens marks but doesnt completely fade them |
| Bottom line | i prefer roll on vitamin e as opposed to the stuff in the bottle that makes your fingers sticky.i use nature's gate roll on vitamin e oil.i buy it at whole foods. it works great at shrinking pimples overnight, makes skin smoother,shallow indents appear softer and less noticable, and my overall skin tone is more even and has a healthy glow.i have extremely sensitive skin and most products break me out, this is the one of the few products that doesnt.i apply it 30 mins before bed and when i wash it off in the morning my skin looks awesome. much better for acne prone skin than those creams that have fragrance and a million different irritating ingredients in them.i have oily skin and was pleasantly surprised to find that it makes my skin less oily.i wish it did a better job of fading hyperpigmentation however its still amazing stuff! i highly recommend!!! |

| Pros | Lightens red acne marks, hydrates skin =) |
|---|---|
| Cons | Oily, greasy looking on skin. |
| Bottom line | This review is for the oil, not the pill. A long time ago, about 9 months ago, I had horrible red acne marks that covered my entire face. So I began using Vitamin E oil from rite aid I bought, and began applying to my skin at night. Eventually, as the days worn on, I found my skin looked brighter and the marks less noticeable. Today, I started breaking out due to exams in college, and began getting red marks again. Grr. So I am applying the oil only on the red areas at night. Hopefully, I will have a postitive outcome like I did months ago. I recommend it. Oh, and I have very sensitive skin, very prone to acne. It did not cause me to break out =) |

| Pros | Affordable. |
|---|---|
| Cons | It does not work. |
| Bottom line | I've been putting vitamin E from the capsule directly on my old acne scars every night for about 3 months now and the appearance of my scars hasn't changed one bit. It was frustrating and so I did some research and found that the using Vitamin E to heal scars is an old urban legend that has been around since the 1920's. I know I'm going against the grain of the majority of the reviews here but I believe that the positive results people are experiencing here have nothing to do with Vitamin E or are a placebo. I just don't want people to think this will be some kind of cheap miracle cure and be disappointed eventually. Read more about studies here: [link removed] |

| Pros | Obtainable, cheap, natural |
|---|---|
| Cons | oily |
| Bottom line | vitamin E is good when taken orally and applied topicaly... it is great as a moisturizer after washing your face...as it leaves i feeling soft and hydrated. Choosing the type of vitamin E is crucial as the better qualities will provide less reactions if you would have a sensitivity. |

| Pros | Cheap Helps even skin tone (including angry, red scars) Makes skin feel moisturized (but not overly... doesn't seem to be clogging my pores either) Easy to use Natural! |
|---|---|
| Cons | A bit sticky like honey, but I don't really consider that a problem. |
| Bottom line | So I've had moderately sever acne pretty much my whole life. I've tried over the counter washes/medications, and prescriptions (Retin-A, Duac). Sometimes they worked for awhile, but for the most part the chemicals made my face dry and scarred. So I decided to try the all natural method... I know different things work for different people, and what may work for me could indeed break someone else's face out even worse... but I felt like I should share my success. Maybe someone else could benefit from it too! For about a week now I've been washing my face with a mixture of: 1 teaspoon (or so) of baking soda, honey, a few drops of tea tree oil, few drops of water, and the oil from one vitamin E capsule. I just mix everything together in a little bowl until it's a not too thick, not too thin consistency. Then wash my face with it in the morning and night. At night (or even in the afternoon, if I don't have to see anybody) I prick a hole in a vitamin E capsule and cover up any acne scars/spots I have. The oil takes awhile to absorb, which is why I do it at night. If there's any extra oil in the capsule at night, I just swallow the pill... supposedly it's good to take it internally as well. I've been doing this for a little over a week now and... wow... my face is clearer than it has been in a LONG time! My red acne scars have faded and evened out... and my face is actually smooth! I had two acne cysts (you know... the pain-in-the-butt, painful kind). After a few days of using that face wash and vitamin E they are nearly gone! I'm so surprised and amazed... I hope it lasts! Surprisingly, the extra greasy oil from the vitamin E hasn't broken me out... so I will keep it up! Good luck to you all out there! |

| Pros | -reduces redness -clears up pimples -even clears up blackheads!! -reduces pore size |
|---|---|
| Cons | -causes little bumps all over, but these are temporary -takes a little longer to work than other supplements |
| Bottom line | This stuff is amazing! I was going through a really bad bout of acne before I started vitamin e capsules. I had been taking fish oil which was working well, it keep my break outs small.But my skin redness was really bad. I have a very uneven skin tone. At the time I was also using the topical gel Ziana, which was drying my skin out. But I was also using Eucerin lotion which had oil in it (didnt know that until my doc pointed it out), so my skin was very confused! So I stopped the Ziana and Eucerin and started the vitamin e capsules. My doc also prescribed me Clindamycin T gel, but I now only use that for spot treatment because its an antibiotic. When I started the vitamin e it gave me these little non-acne bumps all over. But they've gone away for the most part and are still going away. My skin is now completely clear, not a pimple in sight. Most of my red marks have faded, and all the blackheads on my chin are gone. The ones on my nose are still in the process of going away. Try it!!! |
