A Question about Vitamin E Oil

[frank85]

So here I was at Whole Foods and stumbled upon this wonder Vitamin E Oil in a small roll on container....

Now here is my question How and when will I use Vitamin E Oil ?
Do I apply it on my face right after I shave or what...

I hear of the great benefits of Vitamin E and how it helps repair the skin...
I just want to make sure that it is something that I can I use in my arsenal
of weapons for better skin care.


any suggestions

I typically just rub it into the irritated areas, for me, usually just the neck. If you put in on your face, especially during the summer, you'll find it will give you face an oily sheen. It's pretty thick stuff. I really like Fruit of the Earth Vitamin E cream, it tones the oil down a bit, but it has alcohol and burns right after a bad shave. It's very cheap and available at Wal-Mart.

I use sweet almond oil (very rich in VItamin E). I find it in Paris, in most supermarkets under the label Les Floressances.

I use it right after I finish all my passes, and normally do my touch ups, for the removal of rough spots that are still left (usually on my chin).

It is true that is leaves your face oily, but if you use the right amount (3 drops), after you do your cold water slpash at the end of the shave, immediately before you apply after shave, it will kind of spread relatively evenly on your face.

I like it, and it is a part of my normal shaving routine.

I am 25 years old, but people that haven't seen me for about 2 years, for example, and see me after an extended period, tell me my face hasn't changed at all. Also, people that don't know me, have the impression that I am 18, or something.
It does get kind of annoying, because most of the time people don't take me seriously (due to the baby face), but I'm not complaining too much, because I think it is an advantage).
