Hello wonderful members of the secret beauty community. I joined this community not long ago and I am so glad to be in such an educative community. I have been spending a lot of time here reading lots of educative posts and I feel it is best I share some of my knowledge with you guys. So earlier within this year, I was having a lot of problem with my skin, that was when I realized that I had to listen to my skin for some time. For about a month, I stopped using all my skincare products just to study my skin. In the cause of my study, I was making a lot of researches to find what will work best for me because as humans, we all differ in our genetic types.

During my break from my products, all I was using was vitamin E essential oil. After 2 weeks of use, I realized my skin was really moisturized and my breakouts had surprisingly reduced . Even though I knew about its benefits, I hardly paid attention to it. So in this post, I will be discussing about the benefits of vitamin E and foods we can gain Vitamin E from. Do stick and stay with me as I take you through.
