Vitamin E remains popular as both a supplement and as a vitamin E topical oil or cream.  While most vitamin E products contain what they claim, ConsumerLab.com's recent review found that two vitamin E products provided synthetic vitamin E when their labels suggested that they were "natural" vitamin E brands; one of which was also short on the total vitamin E promised. 
 
Our laboratory analysis also revealed that a vitamin E tablet failed to properly break apart, taking 128 minutes to disintegrate rather than the 30 minutes or less required by the USP.  Such a delay means that a vitamin E pill may not release its ingredients soon enough for proper absorption.
