INCI: Tocopherol, Helianthus annuus seed oil

Essentially Natural Vitamin E Oil is a concentrated, oil-soluble form of vitamin E supplied in sunflower oil for easy use in skincare and formulation. It is commonly added to facial oils, body oils, balms, butters, and creams where a richer skin feel and antioxidant support are wanted. This is not water soluble, so it belongs in oil phases and anhydrous products rather than water-only formulas. It is also widely used in small amounts to help slow the oxidation of oils in DIY blends.

♡ Why we love it: We choose to stock this vitamin E because it is one of the most useful small-addition ingredients in oil-based formulation. It brings flexibility to everyday DIY making, works well across many product types, and helps support the freshness of oil blends without adding unnecessary complexity.

Q: Why is vitamin E added to oil blends?
A: It is commonly used to add antioxidant support and to help slow the oxidation of oils.

Q: Can I use it in a toner or facial mist?
A: Not directly. It is oil soluble and needs a suitable emulsifier or solubiliser for water-based systems.

Q: Will it feel rich on the skin?
A: It can feel more cushioning than a very light oil, so small amounts are often enough.

A monthly staple

Honestly a favourite staple product for me and my mom. It is on our top priority list for monthly beauty care products and it is such a lovely product! Definitely helps in reducing fine lines, helps my skin to glow, and makes it more elastic. I bought it for my mom as a gift and she cannot stop raving about it. Along with essentially naturals jojoba oil, this is our monthly go to for skincare. From now on, she asked me to buy it for her every month when I place my monthly order. We also finish it quite quickly because it is such a nice product and versatile. 10/10 recommend. The consistency is also quite nice. Definitely makes my skin feel very nourished and well looked after. Its not too oily but adds a healthy glow, making my skin feel loved. Also love the little surprise I get with my order every month. Thank you for going the extra mile! <3

Deep Scars Fading, Self-Love Growing – A Must-Try Combo!

I’ve struggled with deep acne scars for years, and nothing seemed to truly work—until I found these gems on Essentially Natural. I purchased Vitamin E oil, Rosehip oil, Calendula oil, Grapeseed oil, and Sunflower oil with one goal: to heal my skin naturally.
I combined a few drops of Rosehip, Calendula, and Vitamin E for a nighttime healing serum, and I use Grapeseed and Sunflower oils during the day because they’re lightweight and perfect under sunscreen. My skin is soft, my scars are fading, and for the first time in a long time, I feel confident without makeup.

These oils are more than just skincare—they're self-care, healing, and hope in a bottle. They’ve made me feel beautiful again.
If you’re struggling with scars, sensitive skin, or confidence—trust nature. Trust this store. I’m living proof that gentle, natural ingredients can transform your skin.
Thank you, Essentially Natural, for being part of my healing journey. 💛

Vitamin E Oil

First time I ordered. Happy with the product. The only challenge I experienced was that the oil is so thick and sticky that the gadget at the top of the bottle does not release any drops. I had to remove it and use a tube dripper to measure drops off for my recipe. Maybe another dispensing option should be used for this type of oil.

The Essentially Natural Vitamin E Oil is amazing. You can use it as is to get the best results, or as an addition to your lotions, etc. It smells divine and loves skin. You don't need expensive products for healthy and glowing skin, essential oils are enough and work best. Essentially Natural is the holy grail, happy to have found you. Did I mention their customer service is on par?

Vitamin E oil is great for lip balms and similar products. It makes my lips soft, protects them from damage and has preservative properties keeping them fresh for longer. It's a must-have for healthy lips!

Top Quality and Natural

Amazing product! Very thick, so I remove the slow release cap and use a pipette, btw the 30ml comes with a pipette. But it is actually surprisingly easy to work with.

Only need the smallest amount for formulations as it's so thick and it's natural. Couldn't recommend more! Something I never want to see running out in my collection.
