Fat-soluble vitamins, when taken in excess, are more likely to be stored in the body. Fat-soluble vitamins are Vitamin K, D, E and A. If there is too much present in the body, it is stored in the fat cells instead of being excreted like water-soluble ones are.

Chaim Turner · Answer 2

Water soluble vitamins when in excess are flushed out in urine (Vitamins B and C). Fat soluble vitamins are stored in the body's fat cells and used when needed (Vitamins A, D, E and K). This is why you need to replenish your water soluble vitamins more often than your fat soluble vitamins.
