Product Info:
Dimethicone 350 is a medium-viscosity silicone widely used in cosmetic formulations to enhance skin feel, improve spreadability, and provide a smooth, silky texture. It forms a breathable barrier on the skin, helping to lock in moisture while offering a lightweight, non-greasy finish. In hair care, it reduces frizz, enhances shine, and improves combability. Dimethicone 350 also contributes to water resistance in formulations like sunscreens and long-wear makeup.
Formulation Guidelines:
