DL-Alpha-Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E) in Nail Defender
The vitamin E form the brand lists for antioxidant protection and hydration.*
At a glance
Vitamin E is the sixth and last name on the label, printed as DL-alpha-tocopheryl acetate. The brand lists it as an antioxidant for protection and hydration.*
Where it comes from
Vitamin E is a family of fat-soluble compounds that plants make. You find them in nuts, seeds and plant oils, from sunflower seeds to almonds. Tocopheryl acetate is a steady form that keeps well in a bottle, which is why it appears on so many labels.
Role on this label
After an acid, two scented oils, a leaf and four nut and seed oils, the list ends on a vitamin. The brand says it is there for antioxidant protection and hydration.*
That is the full description.
Natural company
Vitamin E travels with plant oils in nature, so it fits next to the four-oil blend. It also joins aloe extract on the hydration side of the label.
Read the second half of the list as the comfort half.
Everyday care to match
Gloves for dishes and yard work, a good pat-dry after washing and nails trimmed straight across are small habits that suit any routine. More in little habits around a daily spray.
