Vitamin E, certified organic
Natural. Produced with certified organic sunflower oil.
Please note: This is an antioxidant, not a broad spectrum preservative. Can be added to anhydrous (oil only) blends and balms for added antioxidant benefits and to help increase the shelf life of oils. Can be added to emulsions (creams) in the cool down phase, in conjunction with, but does not take the place of, a broad spectrum preservative such as Geogard 221
Vitamin E will help prevent rancidity and extend the shelf-life in anhydrous products at 0.5%. To add its benefits to the skin, a minimum of 2% to a maximum of 30% may be added to the formulation.
Natural vs. Synthetic:
Natural vitamin E contains alpha-tocopherol exclusively in an active form.
Synthetic vitamin E (sometimes referred to as dl-alpha-tocopherol) contains both active and inactive forms of alpha-tocopherol.
Natural vitamin E also may contain other types of tocopherols, such as beta-tocopherol, delta-tocopherol, and gamma-tocopherol. The term "mixed " tocopherols is used when referring to these different types.
Precautions
Vitamin E oil is a concentrated product and is mildly caustic to the skin in its undiluted form. Dilution of at least 50% within another carrier oil is required if applying it directly to the skin.
