Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer (and) Silica is a silicone elastomer blend consisting of a crosslinked silicone network (Dimethicone/Vinyl Dimethicone Crosspolymer) combined with silica particles. This unique structure delivers a soft-focus, silky texture with oil absorption and sebum-control benefits, making it highly valued in cosmetic and personal care formulations.
The elastomer provides a luxurious powdery, velvety sensory feel, while silica enhances oil control, matte effect, and stability. Together, they act as an excellent sensory modifier, thickener, and carrier for active or oily ingredients.
