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.

Here's what our community thinks
innisfree Cherry Blossom Glow Tone-Up Cream 35 ingredients
Do NOT buy this cream unless you want no hydration and are as white as paper. The white cast is horrible and does not sink in. I’m seriously so upset with this cream. It has oil in the formula and a very strong sent.
