Wikipedia
Vitamin E is a general nomenclature for a group of (up to today) eight fat-soluble substances with antioxidative and non-antioxidative effects. Vitamin E is a component of all membranes in animal cells, but is constructed only from photosynthetically active organisms such as plants and cyanobacteria. Four of the eight known vitamin E forms are called tocopherols. The most meaningful for humans which comes from nature in connection with vitamin E activity is alpha tocopherol
Vitamin E is manufactured as a synthetic and also as a racemic mixture. Synthetic tocopherol is however relatively instable and is therefore still mixed with an acetyl group. see also di-alpha-tocopherylacetate. The biological effect of dl-a-Tocopherylacetate is not identical to natural vitamin E, because the human body can better decompose dl-a-Tocopherylacetate. The reason for this is: In the liver, one finds dl-a-Tocopherol transfer protein (a-TTP) which is responsible in for the transport of vitamin E via VLDL into the blood circulation, and has the highest affinity to natural a-Tocopherol

Is mostly derived from synthetically produced vitamin E. It is resistant to light and air (oxygen). It is readily absorbed by the skin and has a healing effect. The effect is less pronounced than that of unaltered tocopherol.
