Dimethicone

Emollient, Skin Conditioning, Skin Protecting

Dimethicone is a type of synthetic silicone created from natural materials such as quartz.

What it does:

Dimethicone comes in different viscosities:

Depending on the viscosity, dimethicone has different properties.

Ingredients lists don't always show which type is used, so we recommend reaching out to the brand if you have questions about the viscosity.

This ingredient is unlikely to cause irritation because it does not get absorbed into skin. However, people with silicone allergies should be careful about using this ingredient.

Note: Dimethicone may contribute to pilling. This is because it is not oil or water soluble, so pilling may occur when layered with products. When mixed with heavy oils in a formula, the outcome is also quite greasy.

An excellent IT Cosmetics dupe, especially when it comes to cost. If this means anything to you, this product has had people say "Man I wish I had your skin!" to me.

Can’t beat the price tbh. I have oily skin snd I feel like this last Bette run my skin than high end foundations. Plus It doesn’t break me out so I really recommend this one for normal to oily skin. Only issue is the shade range is pretty small and it tends to oxidizes about 2 shades darker. But I use concealer to lighten it a bit on my jaw
