Cyclopentasiloxane is a silicone used to improve texture and trap moisture. An easier name for this is D5.

My Holy Grail Summer Moisturizer
One of the best gels I've used. Super tick gel, rich in humectants , perfect for summer night routine. It's very hydrating and balancing on its own, I don't need any other products besides a cleanser and this gel. Because it does not have any occlusive ingredients, I avoid using it during the cold seasons when the weather is drier. This type of moisturizers suit better warmer and less dry climates.
