Why Vitamin E Deserves a Spot in Your Skincare Routine
When it comes to skincare, Vitamin E has long been known as a quiet achiever. It is not always the headline act, but dig a little deeper and you will find a powerful antioxidant with serious skin benefits. At Dr. Bib Laboratories, we believe in putting science first. That is why Vitamin E plays a central role in our skin formulations — not because it is trendy, but because it works.
Combined with other evidence-backed ingredients such as stabilised Vitamin C and Ferulic Acid, Vitamin E delivers targeted results that support healthy, radiant skin. Our mission is to create skincare that not only feels good on the skin but works hard behind the scenes. Here is why Vitamin E matters, and how our Collagener8 formulations bring the science to life.
What Exactly Does Vitamin E Do for the Skin?
Vitamin E, also known as tocopherol, is a fat-soluble antioxidant that occurs naturally in our skin. Its role is to protect skin cells from oxidative stress caused by free radicals — the unstable molecules that break down collagen and speed up signs of ageing. However, natural Vitamin E levels can deplete due to environmental exposure, especially sun damage and pollution.
Topically applied Vitamin E helps to replenish this defence. It reduces damage caused by UV rays, soothes inflammation, strengthens the skin barrier and boosts the performance of other active ingredients, particularly Vitamin C. It also helps to maintain moisture levels in the skin by supporting the lipid barrier, which is essential for keeping skin soft, supple and resilient.
Why We Pair Vitamin E with Vitamin C and Ferulic Acid
The science shows that antioxidants work better in combination. That is why both our Collagener8 Vitamin C+E Ferulic Pro-Collagen Facial Serum and Collagener8 Vitamin C+E Pro-Collagen Facial Moisturiser are formulated around a stable, synergistic blend of these three key actives.
Vitamin C brightens the skin and boosts collagen production. Vitamin E strengthens the skin barrier and prevents water loss. Ferulic Acid stabilises both vitamins and increases their antioxidant power. When combined, this trio delivers a broader spectrum of protection against environmental stressors and supports long-term skin health.
Product Spotlight: Collagener8 Vitamin C+E Ferulic Pro-Collagen Facial Serum
This serum is designed to deliver visible results, fast. With a stabilised 17 percent Vitamin C and a carefully balanced pH above 3.5, it is ideal for sensitive skin types that may have reacted to harsher formulations in the past.
Alongside its core actives, it features Frankincense, Grapeseed and Pomegranate — all known for their skin-calming and antioxidant-rich properties. Together, these ingredients help to:
- Support collagen production
- Reduce oxidative stress
- Improve skin firmness and elasticity
- Diminish early signs of skin ageing
- Promote a more even skin tone
What sets this serum apart is the attention to stability and formulation. Many Vitamin C serums degrade quickly and become ineffective. We use only high-grade, stabilised ingredients so the serum stays potent and continues delivering results each time you apply it.
Product Spotlight: Collagener8 Vitamin C+E Pro-Collagen Facial Moisturiser
Moisturisers should do more than hydrate. This one does exactly that. With stabilised 7 percent Vitamin C and Vitamin E, this lightweight but powerful formula works hard to:
- Protect against UV damage
- Maintain moisture and prevent dullness
- Improve elasticity
- Reduce the appearance of fine lines
-
Support overall skin health
Enriched with Frankincense, Geranium, Lavender, Avocado, Grapeseed and Pomegranate, this moisturiser brings together nature and science in one formulation. Each ingredient is chosen for a reason — not to pad out a label, but to deliver results. It hydrates deeply, absorbs easily and leaves no greasy residue, making it ideal for daily use under makeup or on bare skin.
The Science Behind Our Formulations
At Dr. Bib Laboratories, we do not rely on guesswork or trends. Every ingredient we include is backed by peer-reviewed science and carefully evaluated in-house for stability, performance and skin compatibility.
We choose to use stabilised Vitamin C and Vitamin E, which ensures our products remain effective over time. We also formulate at a pH that is skin-friendly and reduces the risk of irritation. Our focus is not just on what goes into our skincare, but how those ingredients work together once they are on your skin.
The result is a product range that delivers targeted action — reducing oxidative stress, improving barrier function, and stimulating collagen where it matters.
Skincare That Puts Science First
At Dr. Bib Laboratories, we are proud to lead with knowledge, not marketing. Our formulations are built from evidence, tested for results and crafted for skin that deserves the best. We do not believe in miracle claims. We believe in smart, science-led skincare that works with your skin, not against it.
Vitamin E is not a trend. It is a proven, powerful tool in the fight against environmental stress, premature ageing and dryness. When paired with stabilised Vitamin C and Ferulic Acid, its impact is even greater. That is the foundation of our Collagener8 approach — thoughtful ingredients, professional science and everyday results you can trust.
