If this is your concern, Vitamin E is one of the most evidence-backed options out there.

What is Vitamin E

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that softens skin and boosts the action of vitamin C.

How Vitamin E helps for fine lines

Fine lines are often linked to dehydration and an early drop in collagen. This is exactly where Vitamin E shines: vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that softens skin and boosts the action of vitamin C. As a result, used consistently, it gently improves the skin for fine lines.

How to use it

• Cleanse with a gentle, non-stripping product.
• Apply vitamin E to dry skin, starting 2–3 times a week.
• Seal with a moisturiser to support the barrier.
• Always use SPF 30+ in the morning.

Precautions
