Vitamin E- the Great Eye Wrinkle Reducer

Philippa Lane
Do you want to save money on eye cream?

Have you spent a lot of money on eye cream, only to find out that you just spent a lot of money, with no results to show for it? Was it really worth the time and expense?

I understand how you may feel, because I have tried many eye creams that left the skin around my eyes dry and without moisture and I did not see much of a difference in the way the skin around my eyes looked and felt.

When I was younger, around 16 years old, my mother encouraged me to use an eye cream around my eyes. She said it would help me to look younger for a longer time. I started to break open Vitamin E capsules and began to apply it to the skin around my eyes. It has really helped my eye area over the years. Even though it is good to start doing this when you are younger, it really is never too late to start. Better late then never!

I found something that is less expensive and works better than some eye creams; it is Vitamin E. This one little vitamin does wonders for your eye area. Just break open a capsule, squeeze a little out onto your finger, and pat it under your eye. Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin, is an antioxidant, and it has many benefits.

Vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) can be found in:
Avocados
Vegetable oil and margarine
Wheat Germ
Peanut Butter
Egg yolk
Nuts
Liver
Whole grain products

Along with the benefits that Vitamin E provides for you internally; when used on the outside of your body and under your eyes, it provides wonderful external benefits as well. Vitamin E will penetrate your skin with powerful antioxidants and will lubricate the delicate eye area, help wrinkles appear less noticeable, and help prevent the formation of new wrinkles.

You can break open a Vitamin E capsule or purchase a bottle of Vitamin E oil and apply it to your skin. You can find Vitamin E in capsule form, in a bottle, or as an eye applicator stick. Either way you get it, it is still a lot better than spending a lot of money on a very expensive eye cream. Also, if you already have an eye cream, you can mix some Vitamin E oil with it before applying it around your eyes.

One thing to remember is, when using Vitamin E around your eye area, you only need a tiny amount. A little goes a long way. If you apply too much, your under eye area may become too shiny. So, remember you only need a small amount. Vitamin E capsules, Vitamin E oil, and Vitamin E eye applicator wrinkle sticks can be found at many vitamin and health food stores and online at: www.gnc.com and cooperlabs.com and ranges in price from: $3.00-$12.99.
