SilDerm®Smoothing is a copolymer containing cyclomethicone and dimethicone. Cyclomethicone is often used in cosmetics to impart a velvety cushion on the skin that enhances luminescence and sheen. Dimethicone, a silicone oil, is known for its unique properties that help this viscous product melt onto the skin for a polished, even application. Incorporate SilDerm® Smoothing to enhance the emulsion system in your formulations. This product is typically found in hair & skin conditioning products as shampoos, conditioners, creams, lotions, as well as color cosmetics (e.g. lipsticks, lip balms, makeup).
Our products are for cosmetic and personal care formulations only; External Use Only. We recommend working with a chemist or a formulator if you’re not advanced in formulating.
