Good for lightening
I take 1-2 (you're really only supposed to take one) 1000 iu vitamin e pills each day. I've been doing so for a little over a month. My skin I clearer, and brighter, but honestly that could be due to any number of things in my acne regimen. I can't say for sure whether or not it is the vitamin e. However, sometimes I cut a pill open and apply the oil directly to a pimple thats forming/ a scar/ hyperpigmentation. When I apply it to a pimple or a cyst, it comes to a head by the next day. So it will erupt your acne quicker. When I apple it to my scars, they heal faster. And when I apply it to my dark spots, they lighten overnight. Especially effective if you leave a bandaid on. However, I did not notice that it lessened my number of pimples (nor did it make me breakout). Simply makes them come to a head quicker. So conclusion: orally taken, I can't really see the results. Topically applied--very good.

I'm splitting my rating because opening up a capsule and putting it on dry cracked skin is amazing and deserves a 5 star but taking them internally for 3 months has done nothing for my dry skin or to help my spots.

Pros:

Very moisturizing cheap feels good

Cons:

Really greasy looking broke me out a little

I used the oil right from the capsule and it was really sticky so I would only put it on if your staying home or at night. I tried this yesterday and it felt really great on my skin. It moisturizes your skin amazingly. I put it just on my cheeks where my redmarks are. It made my skin so soft and smooth but it did break me out, very little though. I got a few really tiny whiteheads on my cheeks but they were so little they are gone already, the next morning so no big deal. I'm not going to use it regularly maybe just once in a while because if that. But I would still definitely try it out on your skin. Some things don't work for some ppl then other ppl it could work wonders so try it. I have read many many good reviews about this. It just didn't work on my skin. And I have normal skin, not too oily not too dry and I have very light acne. I mostly just have red marks I'm trying to get rid of. But try it!!

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)

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:

It fades marks a little bit and makes skin soft.

Cons:

it made me breakout

my skin was looking fairly good and then i decided to put on vitamin e oil one night and the next morning i was so broken out. Im not sure if it was the Doryx i am taking or oil.

Pros:

Made my scars fade a little

Cons:

Oily, greasy, made my acne worse

If you already have an oily face, don't add more oil onto it. Sure, it fades your scars, but it only makes your acne worse like it did to mine. Otherwise, I'd recommend it.

Pros:

easy to take, cheap

Cons:

made me breakout

I've used vitamin e gel for a couple months now and it is going alright. I then decided to take it in pill form and it made me break out. Stopped vitamin e all together and will try something else for my skin.
