Tocopherol / Alpha-Tocopherol
The primary fat-soluble antioxidant in skin. Protects cell membranes from lipid peroxidation, dramatically enhances and regenerates Vitamin C, and provides emollient and barrier-supporting benefits. Combined with Vitamin C, the photoprotective synergy is greater than either alone.
Topical 0.5–5% in moisturisers or Vitamin C serums. Apply AM before SPF. Oral 15mg/day RDA.
