Caprylyl Methicone (and) PEG-12 Dimethicone/PPG-20 Crosspolymer is a clear to translucent silicone-organic elastomer gel delivered in a silicone carrier fluid. It is designed to provide enhanced compatibility with both water and polar materials while maintaining a stable, viscous gel structure. This unique system offers smooth, powdery, and non-greasy aesthetics with improved spreadability compared to traditional silicone elastomer gels.
