What Is Tocopherol?
Tocopherol is the most widely used natural form of Vitamin E, a fat-soluble antioxidant that helps neutralise the free radical damage caused by UV exposure and everyday environmental stress. It also has a naturally emollient quality, leaving skin feeling soft and conditioned.
Vitamin E and Vitamin C are frequently formulated together because they support and stabilise one another, which is part of why tocopherol appears across many of ASI's serums, oils and moisturisers.
