Dimethicone(Cat No.:R051510), also known as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), is a type of silicone oil commonly used in a variety of personal care products, including skin moisturizers, hair conditioners, and makeup. It forms a non-greasy, protective barrier on the skin and hair, which helps to lock in moisture, reduce water loss, and provide a smooth, silky texture. Additionally, dimethicone aids in the application of products by improving spreadability and adding shine. It is favored for its hypoallergenic properties, making it suitable for sensitive skin types. In cosmetics, it also acts as a filler, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
