On pharmacy shelves you can find simple products that are inexpensive, but work on the skin better than any cosmetologist. One of these effective and cheap drugs is an oil solution of vitamins E and A, called Aevit. Expensive cosmetics attract us with well-known brands, and in the pharmacy there are drugs that work no worse than their promoted analogues. A simple solution of vitamins E and A in oil only works in a fatty environment, so in other solutions, for example, aqueous, the effectiveness of these components is zero.
Compound
Nourishing Aevit face cream contains:
- Demineralized water
- Oleyl erucate
- Glyceryl stearate
- Ethylhexylglycerin
- Caprylic/capric/triglycerides
- Polyglyceryl-3 methylglucose distearate
- Propylheptyl caprylate
- Higher fatty alcohols
- Vitamins A and E
- Glyceryl
- Blend of plant extracts (rosemary, edelweiss, and raspberry)
- Phenoxyethanol.
The cosmetic product is produced without the addition of artificial dyes and fragrances.
Preparations "AEVit"
The capsulated drug "AEVit" is sold in pharmacies without a prescription. Both of these vitamins are fat-soluble, so they are a clear oily liquid enclosed in a gelatin shell. According to the instructions, the product is intended for internal use. But it is often used to enrich masks or homemade creams prepared according to folk recipes.
Knowing the popularity of this product, the well-known pharmaceutical concern “Libriderm” has released a ready-made nourishing cream “AEVit” for the face with a high concentration of retinol and tocopherol.
It quickly became popular because at a relatively low cost (about 250 rubles per package), it showed excellent results and is very easy to use. I will tell you about its features a little later.
Medicinal properties
Libriderm cream is a complex vitamin product for skin care that has anti-aging, regenerating, and antioxidant effects. The ingredients included in the composition tone the skin, relieve signs of fatigue and aging. The bottle of the cosmetic product does not indicate at what age the cream should be used. It is worth considering that Aevit Libriderm fights the first signs of age-related changes and reduces the severity of deep wrinkles.
Thanks to the content of vit. A and E, the cream is characterized by antioxidant properties. With its regular use, it is possible to protect epidermal cells from damage and withering, accelerate regeneration processes, and restore lost elasticity of the skin. With the combined effect of two vitamins, the process of collagen synthesis is activated, which maintains youth and beauty of the skin.
Phytoextracts of rosemary, edelweiss and raspberry charge the skin cells with a portion of energy, tone it, protect the epidermis from the harmful effects of UV rays, and accelerate regeneration processes.
Contraindications
The manufacturer considers individual intolerance to be the only contraindication to the cream. I beg to differ with him. The drug contains retinol, the use of which is not recommended for:
- liver problems;
- renal failure;
- oncological diseases;
- ulcers and open wounds;
- diabetes mellitus
An overdose of vitamin A in early pregnancy is very dangerous - it can cause fetal malformations. Whether or not to listen to my opinion is a personal matter for everyone. But, as a professional cosmetologist, I am obliged to warn you about the possible consequences of improper use of biologically active drugs.
Retinol and preparations with its high content cannot be used externally if you take hormonal pills (including birth control) or antibiotics (especially sulfonamides or tetracyclines). This can trigger the development of hyperpigmentation.

Summing up
According to the instructions, the indications for using AEVit cream are the first signs of aging, as well as dryness and flaking of the skin. In fact, according to reviews from my clients, it really gives a good anti-aging effect and helps get rid of small pimples and non-inflammatory acne.
An additional advantage is a convenient bottle with a dispenser, which prevents the cream from coming into contact with air and the penetration of pathogenic microorganisms into it. Therefore, if you choose between making masks yourself and a ready-made product, I would recommend the latter. And if you have your own opinion on this matter, share it in the comments.
Accelerating growth
To prepare the medicinal mixture, you will need to take a large spoon of mustard and the same amount of warm burdock oil and Aevit (3 capsules). Mix everything thoroughly and season this composition with fresh chicken yolk. Then the resulting composition must be applied to the root zone and create a “greenhouse” effect using a bag and a towel. The mask lasts approximately 1.5 hours. After the specified time has passed, you need to wash your hair with shampoo and also use balm for the ends of your hair. In addition to accelerated growth, volume is added and the secretion of sebum into curls is normalized.
Therapeutic effect on the body
Aevit is a medicinal combination drug, the components of which are involved in various metabolic processes of the human body. The therapeutic effects of Aevit vary in action, so the vitamin complex is striking in its breadth of application. Aevit has an antioxidant, stimulating effect, promotes the active reproduction of epithelial cells, modulates the body's defenses, and regenerates the tissues of some internal organs.
Aevitom restores hematopoiesis and normalizes the permeability of vascular walls throughout the blood distribution system. The medicine contains components for the normal functioning of the organs of vision and reproductive system, regulation of protein and lipid metabolism. Its functions are not limited to only basic types of exchange. Aevit restores the functioning of organs and systems of internal and external secretion.
The combination of beneficial effects for the body makes it possible to treat hair with Aevit not only as a cosmetic product, but also for therapeutic results. According to user reviews, the vitamin complex has a positive effect on the destruction of hair and follicles and helps provide the structural components of the hair with the necessary minerals.
The use of the Aevit vitamin complex slows down oxidative processes in the processing of fatty acids and reduces the number of acidic compounds. Such work can stop the hemolysis of red blood cells and the destruction of cellular structures. The mechanism of antioxidant action allows, according to consumer reviews, to use the drug for problem areas around the eyes to increase skin elasticity in these areas and rejuvenate. Reviews from those who have used Aevit to improve the health of nails and hair note a high result in the fight against various pathological conditions.
The protective function of the body is manifested in stimulating parts of the immune system, which causes the activity of lymphocytes. Reviews from patients and doctors agree that it is easier to prevent a disease than to spend energy on treating it later.
Precautionary measures
Constant use of Aevit can contribute to the deterioration of the regenerative properties of the skin, and it will become slower in producing new cells, which will contribute to deterioration in appearance and premature aging. Therefore, Libriderm cream should be used in courses with a mandatory break.
Aevit may not cope with skin that is too dry and has deep cracks.
Considering that Aevit contains strong bioactive substances, it is not recommended for use by persons under 18 years of age.
Reviews
The use of vitamins is very useful, I have seen this from my own experience. After winter, my hair became dull and brittle. I treated them with Aevit; on my mother’s advice, I bought it at the pharmacy. After application, I kept it under a plastic scarf for two hours , then washed it off. The result is shiny, silky hair!

I’m old enough now that a network of wrinkles has appeared. I was advised to use Aevit to remove them. After two weeks of masks, the wrinkles were no longer visible, they simply became invisible!
Anastasia Petrovna, St. Petersburg
I use Aevit to treat my hair and face and strengthen my nails.
Believe me, the action is stunning. The hair is nourished and stops splitting, the nails do not break at the first bend, as before, and the face has become smooth and white. Svetlana Georgievna, Ulan-Ude
Onions and vitamins for hair thickness
A fairly simple recipe for the beauty and splendor of curls. It requires only a few components: onions, Aevit capsule for hair and burdock oil (olive oil is possible). You need to squeeze a tablespoon of juice from the tear vegetable and mix it with vitamin oil. Apply this mixture to washed hair roots. Use your fingertips to perform massage manipulations, rubbing the resulting composition into the scalp. Then you need to keep it under the film for half an hour and rinse with shampoo. Afterwards, rinse with vinegar water. It is recommended to carry out such procedures once a week for a couple of months.
Volume and silkiness
To achieve a positive result, you will need to conduct a course of masks based on kefir, honey and Aevita. The composition also includes cognac and warm burdock oil. In addition to a lush and silky hairstyle, the growth of new hairs is also accelerated. The mask is prepared as follows:
- Pour in 2 large spoons of kefir, honey and burdock oil.
- Add a spoonful of cognac and 3 ampoules of the vitamin complex.
Mix all these parts thoroughly and lubricate the resulting product along the entire length of the strands, starting from the roots. Cover the top with a cap and towel. Exposure time - 1 hour. After this, you need to remove the product from your hair using water and shampoo.
“Stop hair loss” mask with burdock oil
A hair mask will help stop hair loss. “Aevit” and burdock oil must be purchased in advance. The composition for the mask is prepared immediately before application to the hair. For one large spoon of burdock oil you will need one vitamin capsule. Before carrying out work, you must wash your hair thoroughly, preferably using a scrub: this will help improve the result.
The finished mask of burdock oil and Aevita is applied to the roots, carefully distributed over all areas of the scalp using massage movements. When the procedure is completed, it is necessary to cover the curls with plastic wrap. Wrap your head in a terry towel or put on a hat. Leave the mask on for a couple of hours. After the end of time, it is necessary to thoroughly rinse the strands and scalp in the usual way.
Restoration of brittle strands
To tidy up curls that have lost their shine and elasticity, we recommend using this recipe. An egg, sour cream and Aevit will help bring a dry bunch of straw on your head back to life. After using this mask, your hair will become moisturized and easy to style. You need to take 2 fresh yolks and a spoon of 15-20% sour cream. Puncture the vitamin capsule and pour the contents into the total mass. Apply the mixture with massage movements onto clean scalp. Cover the top with a shower cap (bag or cling film). Leave the mask on for a couple of hours, then rinse thoroughly using shampoo. The recipe must be used 1-2 times a week for 3 months.
Another composition that will help save damaged strands. After using this mask, the curls become well-groomed and beautiful. After the first application, they regain their shine and elasticity. But to consolidate the result, a longer period of use is required (once a week for a couple of months). To prepare, you will need to take two large spoons of olive oil, 10 drops of ylang-ylang ether and 2 capsules (ampoules) of Aevit oil. Mix everything thoroughly and season the roots with this mixture first, then distribute along the entire length of the strands. Leave the mixture to act for half an hour, then rinse off as usual. However, to enhance the effect, it is recommended not to use shampoo.
