Description

Cyclomethicone is a volatile silicone oil used in hair and skincare products to impart skin conditioning, emolliency, shine and/or silkiness; to reduce the greasy feel of tanning oils; promotes easy spreadability, and leaves a soft, silky smooth feel to the skin.
cyclomethicone’s chemical structure allows for easy application across the skin while reducing pore entry and skin stickiness. It’s structure limits its ability to penetrate through the dermis layer, which means the molecules mingle with dry skin before evaporating quickly. It has many uses  in skin lotions, fragrances, and hair conditioners.
