Vit E oil on face.

Hi beauties,
I have a friend who uses vit E oil directly from the capsule on her face. She uses it twice a week. I have seen a visible difference in her skin texture in past 2 months. My question is that is it safe to be used on combination skin? Can Vit E oil cause breakouts if its used overnight?
Thanks

It depends on your skin. The only thing to do is try :) my grandma has never used any product (including face wash) except vitamin e at night and her skin is amazing at 84 soooo..to each her own 😉

I use it every night and I have had no problems with it. I think it should be fine to use on normal to combination skin and in my experience, it has not caused any break outs even though I use it over night. :)
I would suggest that you first patch test though before using it on your face.

It broke me out personally, my sister too. Everyone's skin is different though so what works for you might not necessary work for someone else. Jojoba oil is my HG it has done wonders for my skin and as it mimics your own oil production the chance of breakouts is very small. As Neha has suggested, do a patch test for which ever oil you decide to go for and see how your skin reacts.
