Description
This product is a mixture of high molecular weight
Vinyldimethicone/ DimethiconeEthoxy Glucoside Crosspolymer in Dimethicone. It
is a transparent gel having self-emulsifying effect due to Glucose, which allow
it to be formulated into W/O emulsions, W/Si emulsions, O/W emulsions to
provide dry smoothness and a light silky skin, non-greasy feel.

How to use?
This product could be dispersed into the oil-phase using
simple mixing.
• It can be added to the oil phase or
silicone phase in an emulsion formulation;
• It can be post-added to emulsions
provided the emulsion is viscous enough for the products to be dispersed.
• For ease use, blending with
Dimethicone or Cyclomethicone to reduce its viscosity.
• When heating, the material should
be processed in an enclosed vessel to prevent the Cylcopentasiloxane from
volatilizing.
• The recommended processing
temperature should be under 60℃.
The product would become very thick or even lumpy after a
period of time. This is normal and it will recovery to original state after
slightly agitate.
The recommended usage level is
