α-Tocopherol (Vitamin E)
Vitamin E refers to a group of compounds that include both tocopherols and tocotrienols. Vitamin E was discovered in 1922 by Herbert McLean Evans and Katharine Scott Bishop[55] and first isolated in a pure form by Gladys Anderson Emerson in 1935 at the University of California, Berkeley.
α-tocopherol, the most biologically active form of vitamin E, is the second-most common form of vitamin E in the diet. Alpha-Tocopherol is an important lipid-soluble antioxidant. It is used in a variety of cosmetic and personal care products, including lipstick, eye shadow, blushers, face powders and foundations, moisturizers, skin care products, bath soaps and detergents, and hair conditioners.
