Key Benefits
Lipid-soluble antioxidant — protects cell membranes and oil phase, anti-aging
How It Works
Alpha-tocopherol — the primary lipid-soluble chain-breaking antioxidant. Donates a hydrogen atom to lipid peroxyl radicals, terminating oxidative chain reactions. Regenerated by Vitamin C in the antioxidant network. Directly protects cell membrane phospholipids.
Why BP Derma Uses It
Natural Vitamin E protects both the formula and the skin. In the formula, it prevents rancidity of oils. On the skin, it works synergistically with our Vitamin C derivatives to provide comprehensive antioxidant defense across both water and oil phases.
