Vitamin E Oil - Pure Natural Oil for Skincare

Derived from cereal germ, this concentrated oil is rich in naturally occurring tocopherols and tocotrienols. Valued for its use in cosmetic formulations as a conditioning ingredient and natural preservative, vitamin E oil has become a popular addition to DIY beauty products and natural cosmetic preparations.

About This Product

Vitamin E oil is extracted from the germ of cereal grains, typically wheat germ, through a process that concentrates the naturally occurring tocopherols and tocotrienols. This oil typically has a golden to amber appearance. 

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble compound that occurs naturally in various plant oils, with cereal germs being one of the richest natural sources. The concentrated oil extracted from these germs provides a potent source of vitamin E compounds for use in cosmetic applications.

Vitamin E oil serves multiple functions in cosmetic formulations - it acts as a natural antioxidant that can help extend the shelf life of other oils, while also serving as a skin conditioning ingredient. Its thick texture requires consideration when formulating, and it's often warmed slightly for easier blending.
