Description
Cyclo Dimethicone, also known as Cyclomethicone, is a type of silicone fluid composed of cyclic siloxane compounds. It is a clear, odorless liquid that evaporates quickly after application, leaving a non-greasy, silky finish on the skin or hair. Cyclo Dimethicone is known for its excellent spreadability and ability to improve the texture and sensory feel of cosmetic products. It acts as a carrier for other ingredients, helping to distribute them evenly across the skin or hair.
Use
Cyclo Dimethicone is widely used in the cosmetic and personal care industry in products such as moisturizers, foundations, serums, hair conditioners, and deodorants. Its volatile nature means it evaporates after application, making it ideal for lightweight formulations that do not leave a heavy residue. It enhances the spreadability of products and provides a smooth, silky feel.
Applications
Cyclo Dimethicone is incorporated into various cosmetic and skincare formulations to improve texture, spreadability, and overall user experience. It is used in facial moisturizers, serums, and primers to create a smooth base for makeup application. In hair care products, Cyclo Dimethicone helps to condition and detangle hair without weighing it down. Its quick evaporation makes it suitable for use in products designed for oily or acne-prone skin, as it provides the benefits of silicones without leaving a greasy residue.
