Pros:

Inexpensive
Seems to help acne when taken with plenty of water during the day

Cons:

None

Vitamin E seems to be helping me with acne. I use with the acne.org regimen and with plenty of water (4-5 liters per day!) It is also important to note that any vitamin should be taken at a consistant time everyday.

Pros:

evens out skin tone, clears up skin, very cheap, all natural.

Cons:

none at all

i'm 28 and have been having slight problems with acne forever. however last year my skin got very dry and i decided to try vitamin e. after a few days my skin looked 10 years younger. or at least a couple years. anyway, my skin cleared up, and the tone of it evened out. it feels greasy going on but the next morning it has all absorbed and WILL NOT CAUSE YOU TO BREAK OUT. quite the opposite. i barely have to use makeup now. and i stopped washing my face because i didn't need to anymore. after i started using mineral makeup which also made my skin better. i don't know which of these three things turned my skin around but i will never go back to expensive products and drying soaps. only washing with water, vitamin e at night, and mineral makeup during the way. i swear by it.

Pros:

-my skin never looked this brighter
-has faded my red marks in just 2 days
-helps a lot with dry skin or oily skin that goes dry when you put on acne medications

Cons:

does make you itchy when you apply it on your face but that subsides after it has fully absorbed

i had a bout of acne in january due to exam nerves and my salon recommended me getting a facial which broke me out in 5 days worse than before. i battled with different medications for a week or so and that seemed to cure the acne. this experience left my skin filled with acne scars and red bumps. thats when i started to look for any good acne marks cream and i came across fair and lovely. however that too broke me out in a few days. i looked at the ingredients and found them to be aloe vera and vitamin e and vitamin B3. That gave me a bright idea of why not use aloe from my garden and vitamin e capsule that are cheaply available from the local pharmacy and voila developed my own concoction.(couldnt find vitamin B3) what i do is break the vitamin e capsule over the aloe leaf and take that gel and rub it all over my marks and any problem areas at night and wash it off with a good cleanser in the morning. after using two days i have noticed brighter complexion and fading of the red marks. and no new acne has formed. by the way i have oily skin but the aloe gel and vitamin seem to be doing the trick perfectly well together. ill keep this on for a week and post the forum with any updates

first i rinsed my face with warm water. then got a measuring cup put apple cider vinegar to 1/4 cup then added with hazel to 1/3 line then warm water to fill 1 cup. use cotton ball and rub on face. 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:

Make skin soft, smooth, bright and spotless

Cons:

A little bit greasy

I use it every night and morning. Can't just put it on the face, it works great with water together, First squeeze tow softgels of oil on the left palm, then use water to wet the right hand. Put oil on the face with wet hands. Then wet both hands, use wet hands to massage face until oil and water into the skin. Morning I use sun cream on top it. It works great.

200mg of vit e has reduced my acne by 90% in a week
Hey folks, I have tried everything for acne, and nothing seemed to work. I also constantly had greasy skin. Since starting Vit E, my skin stopped being greasy and my acne has reduced by about 90%. I can't believe how well this is working. I could see a difference immediately the day after starting. I have been on it for 2 and a half weeks now. I had cystic acne and normal acne. (I am female at 33 years old.)

Pros:

visible results immediately
cheap
doesnt cause breakouts

Cons:

greasy
messy
gets on pillowcase/sheets
lightens marks but doesnt completely fade them

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:

cheap
moisturizing
natural

Cons:

sticky
doesn't absorb

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:

Lightens red acne marks, hydrates skin =)

Cons:

Oily, greasy looking on skin.

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:

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.

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.
